Belden Inc. FDSH0485G OS2 48-fiber Optic Cable Assembly

Product Description

The BELDEN INC. FDSH0485G is an OS2 single-mode fiber optic cable assembly configured with 48 fibers. OS2 fiber is the standard for long-distance, low-attenuation single-mode runs in structured cabling and backbone applications. This assembly is suited for data center interconnects, campus backbone distribution, and industrial network infrastructure where high fiber count and transmission reliability are required. Installation is handled by licensed low-voltage cabling technicians or network infrastructure specialists familiar with fiber optic termination and routing practices.

This assembly is appropriate for indoor structured cabling environments where OS2 single-mode performance is specified. Typical applications include inter-building backbone runs, main distribution frame to horizontal distribution frame connections, and high-density patch or splice point deployments. The 48-fiber count makes it well suited for high-capacity backbone segments in commercial or campus network builds.

Key Features

• OS2 single-mode fiber for low-attenuation long-distance transmission
• 48-fiber count supports high-density backbone cabling requirements
• Factory-assembled construction for consistent termination quality
• Designed for structured cabling and data center backbone applications

Compatibility

Designed as a factory-built OS2 single-mode fiber optic cable assembly for use in structured cabling systems requiring 48-fiber backbone or interconnect runs.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by qualified low-voltage cabling technicians or fiber optic specialists in accordance with TIA-568 and applicable local codes. Inspect all connectors and ferrules before installation and avoid exceeding the minimum bend radius of the cable during routing. Power down or disconnect active equipment at both endpoints before making or breaking fiber connections. Use proper fiber optic cleaning tools on all mating connectors prior to insertion.
