Belden FPSLDLD005M OS2 Lc Duplex Fiber Patch Cord 5M

Product Description

The Belden FPSLDLD005M is an OS2 single-mode fiber optic patch cord terminated with LC duplex connectors on both ends, measuring 5 meters in length. Designed for low-loss signal transmission in structured cabling and fiber optic network installations, this patch cord supports long-distance single-mode runs typical in commercial and industrial data environments. Licensed network technicians and low-voltage cabling contractors install this type of assembly to connect fiber optic equipment ports, patch panels, and active devices in telecommunications rooms and data centers.

This patch cord is suited for structured cabling systems where OS2 single-mode fiber is specified. Typical applications include backbone runs between telecommunications rooms, connections between fiber patch panels and active switching equipment, and cross-connects in main distribution areas. The LC duplex form factor is widely used in high-density fiber installations where space efficiency and reliable mating cycles are required. This assembly ships as a single unit ready for installation.

Key Features

• OS2 single-mode fiber construction for long-distance, low-attenuation signal runs
• LC duplex connectors on both ends for high-density port compatibility
• 5-meter factory-terminated assembly eliminates field termination and ensures consistent insertion loss
• Duplex configuration supports full-duplex transmission over a single assembly
• Pre-polished factory connectors ready for immediate installation

Compatibility

Designed as a standard OS2 single-mode LC duplex patch cord for use with fiber optic patch panels, media converters, switches, and transceivers equipped with LC-type ports in single-mode fiber cabling systems.

Installation Notes

Installation of fiber optic patch cords is performed by licensed low-voltage cabling technicians or network infrastructure professionals familiar with fiber handling procedures. Inspect connector end-faces with a fiber inspection scope before mating to avoid contamination-related signal loss. Never exceed the minimum bend radius of the cable during routing, and avoid kinking or crimping the assembly. Follow ANSI/TIA-568 standards for fiber optic cabling installation and connector handling practices.
