Belden Inc. FPSLDST010ML OS2 Fiber Patch Cable Lc St

Product Description

The BELDEN INC. FPSLDST010ML is an OS2 single-mode fiber optic patch cable terminated with LC and ST connectors. OS2 cable is rated for long-distance, low-loss transmission, making it a standard choice in structured cabling installations where signal integrity over extended runs is required. At 10 meters in length, this cable suits rack-to-rack or equipment-to-patch-panel connections within a telecommunications room or data center. Electricians and low-voltage cabling technicians use OS2 patch cables to link active equipment to fiber distribution frames or splice enclosures.

This patch cable is suited for use in commercial and industrial structured cabling environments. Typical applications include connecting fiber switches, media converters, and optical transceivers in enterprise networking, industrial automation, and telecommunications infrastructure. The LC connector on one end and ST connector on the other allow interfacing between equipment using different port types, a common requirement during equipment upgrades or mixed-vendor installations.

Key Features

• OS2 single-mode fiber construction for low insertion loss over long distances
• LC to ST connector configuration supports mixed-equipment connectivity
• 10-meter length provides reach for intra-rack and cross-row patching
• Single-unit packaging suitable for individual port patching or inventory stocking

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or field-install patch cable for OS2 single-mode fiber installations using LC and ST port interfaces in structured cabling systems.

Installation Notes

Low-voltage cabling technicians and licensed electricians performing data communications work should follow TIA-568 and applicable local codes when installing fiber patch cables. Power down or place active ports in a safe state before connecting or disconnecting fiber to avoid exposure to laser light from optical transceivers. Handle fiber connectors carefully to avoid contaminating end faces, and use an appropriate fiber inspection scope and cleaning tools before mating connectors. Do not bend the cable below its minimum bend radius during routing.
