Belden Inc. FPSLULU08M5 OS2 Fiber Patch Cable 8F 5M

Product Description

The BELDEN INC. FPSLULU08M5 is an OS2 single-mode fiber optic patch cable designed for structured cabling and data infrastructure applications. This assembly features LC duplex connectors on both ends and is built around an OS2 single-mode fiber core, making it suitable for long-distance, low-attenuation signal transmission in commercial and industrial network environments. With 8 fibers and a 5-meter length, this cable bridges active equipment, patch panels, and distribution frames where precision and signal integrity are critical. Installation is typically performed by licensed low-voltage technicians or structured cabling specialists.

This patch cable is appropriate for use in data centers, telecommunications rooms, enterprise LAN backbones, and other structured cabling environments requiring OS2 single-mode fiber. The 5-meter length suits rack-to-rack or panel-to-switch runs within a single equipment room or closely spaced cabinets. Applications include fiber backbone links, horizontal cross-connects, and equipment-side patching at main or intermediate distribution frames.

Key Features

• OS2 single-mode fiber construction for low-attenuation, long-distance transmission
• 8-fiber configuration supports high-density patching in structured cabling systems
• 5-meter assembly length sized for in-rack and cross-cabinet runs
• LC duplex connectors on both ends for compatibility with common active equipment and patch panels
• Factory-terminated and tested assembly for reliable, plug-and-play installation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style patch cable for use with OS2 single-mode fiber infrastructure, LC duplex-ported switches, transceivers, and patch panels in commercial structured cabling installations.

Installation Notes

This cable is installed by low-voltage technicians or structured cabling professionals following TIA-568 and applicable local codes. Before connecting or disconnecting fiber patch cables, ensure that active optical sources are powered down or ports are shuttered to avoid eye hazard from laser light. Inspect and clean LC ferrules with appropriate fiber cleaning tools before mating connectors. Do not exceed the minimum bend radius of the cable during routing to avoid signal degradation.
