Connect compatible LC fiber interfaces across a 5 m optical run with an OS2 single-mode cable terminated in LC connectors at both ends. This configuration supports direct LC-to-LC connections between network equipment, fiber patching points, optical transport hardware, and other devices that use compatible LC fiber interfaces. The compact 5 m length is intended for local equipment interconnects rather than long campus or building runs. OS2 identifies single-mode fiber intended for use with compatible single-mode optical interfaces. Selecting the same fiber class at both ends of an optical link helps maintain the intended media type from active equipment through patching and the installed cable plant. LC connectors provide the connector format required by the attached interfaces; verify that the ports or transceivers being joined use LC fiber connections before installation. ALOGIC LCLC-05-OS2 combines the specified 5 m reach, LC-to-LC connector arrangement, and OS2 single-mode fiber class in one cable. It fits short links inside communications racks, links from a switch or router to a nearby fiber panel, and equipment-to-equipment optical connections where cable routing requires more reach than a very short patch lead. Route the cable with appropriate bend protection and keep connector end faces clean before mating.
