MSS Fibre SCA-SCA DUPLEX SM PATCHLEAD 1 MTR DSCASCA1M-SM

Description

Reliable Fibre Optic Connections for Network Equipment

The MSS Fibre Systems DSCASCA1M-SM Fibre Optic Patch Lead provides a practical solution for connecting active network equipment to fibre optic panels and other compatible interfaces. Featuring SCA connectors at both ends, this duplex singlemode patch lead is designed for use in telecommunications networks, data centres, and fibre optic infrastructure where dependable connections are essential.

With a 1-metre cable length, it is suited to short-distance patching within equipment racks, telecommunications cabinets, and network panels. Its factory-terminated connectors help simplify installation by providing ready-made connection ends, reducing the need for on-site connector termination.

Singlemode Fibre for Telecommunications Applications

Designed for singlemode fibre applications, this patch lead is suitable for use in telecommunications networks and high-speed metropolitan access networks. Its stated OS1/OS2 specifications support fibre optic installations across a range of network environments.

Applications include CATV and video systems, Passive Optical Networks (PON), Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM/DWDM), and Fibre to the Home (FTTH) infrastructure. The duplex configuration provides two fibre paths within a single patch lead, making it useful for compatible network equipment and connections that require separate transmit and receive paths. The yellow cable jacket provides easy visual identification within organised fibre installations, helping technicians distinguish fibre cabling during installation, maintenance, and troubleshooting.

Durable LSZH Jacket for Indoor Installations

The cable features a 3mm Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) sheath, specified to reduce smoke and halogen gas emissions compared with conventional halogen-containing cable materials when exposed to fire. This jacket construction is a useful consideration for indoor telecommunications rooms, equipment areas, and data centre environments.

Rated for up to 500 mating cycles in accordance with IEC 61300-2-2, the patch lead is designed to accommodate repeated connection and disconnection within its stated performance limit. This makes it a practical option for installations that require equipment changes, maintenance access, or routine network reconfiguration. Before installation, verify connector compatibility and the required fibre specifications for the connected equipment.
