Ortronics 205KNF9SA-09 Lc Upc OS2 Fiber Connector

Product Description

The ORTRONICS 205KNF9SA-09 is an LC UPC single-mode fiber optic connector designed for OS2 cable with a 900-micrometer tight-buffer construction. It terminates single-mode fiber in structured cabling systems and patch panel assemblies. The LC form factor uses a push-pull latch mechanism and is widely deployed in high-density fiber distribution frames, telecom rooms, and data center environments. Licensed electricians and low-voltage cabling technicians are the primary installers. The UPC polish delivers a low-reflectance endface suited for single-mode transmission runs. The blue housing color follows industry convention for OS2 single-mode identification.

This connector is used in commercial and institutional structured cabling installations where OS2 single-mode fiber is routed through conduit or cable tray. It is appropriate for horizontal and backbone fiber runs in data centers, enterprise networks, and campus distribution systems. The 900-micrometer buffer size is typical of tight-buffered distribution-style fiber cables. Installers use this connector when terminating individual fibers within a multi-fiber distribution cable or when building custom-length patch cords on the bench.

Key Features

• LC form factor with push-pull latch for high-density panel installations
• UPC polish for low back-reflection on single-mode OS2 fiber
• Sized for 900-micrometer tight-buffer fiber
• Blue housing color for OS2 single-mode identification per industry convention
• Sold as individual connector unit (each)

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style termination connector for OS2 single-mode fiber optic cabling systems using 900-micrometer tight-buffer construction and LC-style adapter ports.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed low-voltage technicians or fiber optic cabling specialists following BICSI and TIA-568 standards. Cleave and polish or pre-polished splice-on procedures apply depending on connector style. Fiber end-faces should be inspected with a fiber microscope and cleaned before mating. Do not exceed the fiber minimum bend radius during routing or termination.
