High Quality and Cost-Effective 9/125μm Single Mode Bend Insensitive Fiber Optic Cable

The 9/125μm single mode bend insensitive fiber optic cable has less attenuation when bent or twisted compared with traditional optical fiber cables and this will make the installation and maintenance of the fiber optic cables more efficient. It can also save more space for your high density cabling in data centers, enterprise networks, telecom room, server farms, cloud storage networks, and any places fiber patch cables are needed.

This 9/125um (Micron) single mode fiber optic cable is ideal for connecting 1G/10G Ethernet connections, HDMI over Fiber Optic Extenders or from your Fiber Router for Fiber to the Home (FTTH).

Use this cable to connect your Fibre Distribution box (Example below) for Fiber to the Home (FTTH) to the Fiber Modem / Router for your internet access. An easy method to change the location of your router to optimize Wifi Reception or accessibility.

Example of a Fiber Distribution Box from your service provider below (Can be installed by Telkom, Afrihost, Vox, Mweb, Vumatel, Web Africa or any Fiber Internet Provider). 

Most home and small business Fiber Internet installations will only have ONE SC Port and any SC to SC Cable on our website can be used to move your Fiber Modem to a different location. Some Fiber Internet Service providers use SC to LC Connectors which we also stock in various lengths.

Please do not open a Fiber Distribution box if you are not familiar with it. Just connect the SC Cable to the SC Port on the box. The Fiber strands inside can easily break and can most of the time only be fixed by your service provider.

SC Fiber cables can be extended by using the SC Fiber coupler / joiner below

It can transport data for up to 10km at 1310nm, or up to 40km at 1550nm.

Single mode fiber optic patch cables come with a 9 micron diameter glass core. With the cladding layer, they are 125 micron, and with the buffer layer they are 250 micron. To prevent excessive loss (attenuation), you should ensure that you only connect single mode cables to other single mode fibers already in your system.

Please see our guide at Fiber Optic Cables & SFP Compatibility for more information.

Specifications:

• Diameter  : 1.7mm
• Duplex (Dual Fiber Cables and DUAL Connectors on each side of cable)
• LC/UPC SC/APC
• G.657A2, 2 x 1.7mm

Tensile Strength

Always take care when installing fiber cables to ensure not to break the fiber inside the cable by over-bending or twisting cables. These cables strengthened by the 2*0.45mm steel wires provide more than enough pulling strength to easily install these cables in difficult environments without breaking the cable.
