ACT cable de conexión monomodo 9/125 OS2 fanout de 2 metros 1x conector hembra MTP - 4x LC dúplex 8 fibras

The ACT Fanout Patch Cable 2m Singlemode 9/125 OS2 1xMTP-4xLC is an 8‑fibre breakout cable engineered for high-density singlemode networks. It combines a single MTP female connector on one end with four LC duplex connectors on the other, allowing a compact multi-fibre trunk to be converted into individual LC terminations. The 9/125 µm OS2 fibre construction is intended for long-reach and high-performance links where low attenuation and stable singlemode transmission are required.

Advantages

This fanout patch cable offers low insertion loss and consistent optical performance across all eight fibres, enabling reliable signal transmission in demanding environments. Its MTP to LC configuration simplifies rack and panel connectivity by reducing cable clutter and enabling quick, repeatable mating. The 2 m length provides flexibility for patching between adjacent racks or from equipment to patch panels while maintaining controlled cable routing and minimal excess slack.

Suitable for

• Data centre backbone and interconnects
• High-density patch panels and fibre distribution frames
• Telecommunications links and carrier networks
• Migration from multi-fibre trunks to LC-based equipment

Key specifications

• Fibre type: Singlemode OS2, 9/125 µm
• Number of fibres: 8 fibres (4 LC duplex connectors)
• Connector A: 1 × MTP female
• Connector B: 4 × LC duplex (uniboot or duplex format depending on assembly)
• Length: 2 metres
• Typical performance: low insertion loss and high return loss compatible with singlemode systems
• Cable application: indoor, rack and cabinet patching

How to use

Connect the MTP female end to a compatible MTP trunk or cassette and plug the LC duplex connectors into the equipment or patch panel ports that require singlemode LC terminations. Ensure connector endfaces are clean before mating to minimize loss and protect ferrules from contamination. Route the cable within cable management channels or trays to avoid tight bends; maintain bend radius guidelines for singlemode fibre to preserve optical performance.

Recommendations

Inspect and clean connector endfaces with appropriate fibre cleaning tools before each use. When installing, avoid exceeding the minimum bend radius specified for singlemode fibre and secure the cable to prevent strain on connectors. Use labelled patching to maintain fibre mapping between the MTP trunk and LC ports, and verify optical loss with an OTDR or power meter after installation.
