2m OS2 LC to ST Fibre Optic Cable Single Mode 9/125 Yellow
This 2m duplex lead links equipment with LC ports, such as SFP and SFP+ transceivers on switches and media converters, to older ST patch panels and wall boxes, a common job when a newer switch goes into an established fibre installation.
It is OS2 9/125 single mode fibre, for links between buildings and across sites over kilometres rather than hundreds of metres. The LC end is a small push-and-click plug; the ST end has a round bayonet that twists to lock. Both have a UPC polish for low back-reflection, and the two fibres carry send and receive, so one lead connects a full port pair.
At 2m it reaches from a panel to a switch a few units away, or between neighbouring racks. Single mode leads need single mode optics and will not work with multimode transceivers. The yellow LSZH jacket follows the usual colour for single mode and suits offices and data centres.
