Digitus OS2 SC/APC to SC/APC Simplex Fiber Optic Patch Cable, 20 m
OS2 SinglemodeSC/APC to SC/APCSimplex20 m
The DIGITUS OS2 singlemode fiber optic patch cable connects an SC port to another SC port over 20 m of 9/125 µm simplex fibre with APC-polished ends, made for the fiber ports of switches, servers, media converters and patch panels.
It suits IT technicians and installers who need a patch run between racks or rooms on an OS2 link — OS2 singlemode is the fibre used for building backbones, campus links and provider hand-offs. The steel armour lets it run where a normal patch cord would be crushed or chewed.
Before you order: Both ends are APC (angled, usually green). APC must only mate with APC — plugging it into a UPC (blue) port or coupler gives high loss and can damage the end faces. Check that your ONT, splitter or patch panel is SC/APC before you order.
What's in the Box
- 1 × DIGITUS OS2 fiber optic patch cable, SC/APC to SC/APC, simplex, 20 m
- SFP/SFP+ transceivers, couplers and cleaning tools are not included
What It Means in Practice
- One fibre only (simplex): one cable per port — typical for BiDi optics, GPON/FTTH drops and test connections. A duplex link needs two of these or a duplex cable.
- OS2 singlemode is rated for 1000BASE-LX and 10GBASE-LR links up to 10 km, and longer with the matching optics; at 20 m the cable length never limits the link — the transceivers do.
- 20 m is the cable length end to end. Measure the route first, including vertical runs and cable management, and allow some slack for bends.
- G.657.A2 bend-insensitive fibre tolerates tighter bends in cable trays and wall boxes than older G.652 fibre, but still avoid kinks and tight ties.
- Jacket colour helps you identify the fibre at a glance in a busy rack: yellow (or white on armoured cables) marks singlemode; this cable is white.
- To extend a run, join two cables with an SC/APC coupler of the same fibre type; every joint adds about 0.3 dB of loss, so on short links it does not matter, but a single longer cable is always cleaner.
What Will Not Work
- It will not work with multimode transceivers (SX/SR, 850 nm) or on a multimode (OM1–OM5) backbone — singlemode and multimode cannot be mixed.
- It does not fit LC/ST/MPO/MTP ports — check the connector on both devices.
- It does not mate with UPC (blue) connectors or couplers — APC only.
- It does not plug into copper RJ45 ports — a switch needs an SFP/SFP+ slot with a fiber transceiver, or a media converter.
- A single simplex cable does not make a standard duplex link (separate Tx and Rx) — use two cables or a duplex cord.

Frequently Asked Questions
Singular Expert Insight · Buyer's Guide
Most fiber links that fail on day one fail on the details: wrong fibre type, wrong connector or crossed Tx/Rx. This DIGITUS cable is the right choice when both ends are SC singlemode APC and the run is 20 m. Pair it with the matching SFP/SFP+ modules on your network switches. In a rack we recommend ordering one spare jumper per link type and labelling both ends — it turns a midnight outage into a two-minute swap.
✓ Buy it if your devices have SC ports, use singlemode LX/LR optics with APC ports and 20 m covers the route with some slack.
✕ Skip it if your optics are multimode (SX/SR), your ports are UPC, or you need a different length.
→ Also consider the same OS2 cable in another length or with other connectors, and the SFP/SFP+ transceivers for both ends — ask us for the right match.
Not sure it fits? Send us the model of your switch, transceiver or patch panel and we will check connector, fibre type and length before you order.
