Belden Inc. HDSD0060216LJ OS2 Fiber Optic Cable

Product Description

The BELDEN INC. HDSD0060216LJ is an OS2 single-mode fiber optic cable combining 6 optical fibers with 2 copper conductors at 16 AWG. This hybrid construction supports simultaneous data transmission over the optical fibers and power or control signal routing through the copper conductors in a single cable run. It is designed for structured cabling installations in commercial, industrial, and campus environments where fiber and copper infrastructure must be consolidated. Licensed low-voltage technicians and fiber optic installers typically specify this cable for backbone, riser, and distribution runs.

This cable is suited for installations requiring OS2 single-mode performance, which supports long-distance, low-attenuation transmission beyond the reach of multimode fiber. The hybrid 6-fiber plus 2-conductor design is commonly deployed in security systems, access control, audio-video distribution, and building automation backbones where both optical data and copper control or power circuits are needed in the same pathway. It is sold and installed as a single unit per manufacturer packaging.

Key Features

• OS2 single-mode optical fibers for long-distance, low-attenuation data transmission
• 6 optical fibers combined with 2 copper conductors in one hybrid cable
• 16 AWG copper conductors suitable for control signal or low-voltage power routing
• Single-unit packaging supports precise quantity ordering for project pulls
• Consolidated hybrid design reduces conduit fill and simplifies cable management

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style hybrid fiber optic cable for commercial and industrial structured cabling systems requiring OS2 single-mode fiber with integrated copper conductors.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified low-voltage technician or licensed fiber optic installer in accordance with TIA-568 and applicable local codes. De-energize all associated circuits before terminating copper conductors. Observe minimum bend radius requirements during pulls to avoid micro-bending losses in the optical fibers. Fiber ends must be properly cleaved and polished or connectorized using appropriate fusion splicing or mechanical termination equipment.
