Softing IT Networks FX_AC_HQ_SM_LC,400969 Softing Zubehör: Vorlauf-/Nachlauffaser Multimode LC/SC mit spezieller Metall-Ummantelung 75 m content_copy

The FX_AC_HQ_SM_LC pre-terminated fibre cable from Softing IT Networks is a 75 m long singlemode fibre with LC connectors, specifically designed for use in demanding environments. It features a robust metal jacket, making it extremely durable and part of the Heavy Duty Line. This fibre serves as a connection element between network devices and test equipment, particularly in measurement technology, where a reliable and long-lasting connection is required.

Applications
The fibre is intended for use in industrial and professional networks where high mechanical loads and frequent movements occur. The metal jacket protects the fibre from mechanical stresses such as pressure, bending, and tensile forces. It is especially suitable for mobile applications where the fibre is frequently laid, moved, or removed, for example during network testing, installations, or maintenance work in large infrastructures.

Functions and Equipment in Detail
The fibre is designed as a singlemode fibre, enabling high bandwidth and long transmission distances. The use of LC connectors ensures a compact and precise connection, widely used in modern networks. The special metal jacket increases mechanical strength and extends the fibre’s lifespan compared to standard solutions. The length of 75 m allows connections over large distances without intermediate amplifiers, which may be necessary for tests in large rooms or across multiple levels.

Technology Explained Simply
Singlemode fibres transmit light through a single core, enabling lower attenuation and higher data rates over long distances. LC connectors are small and allow dense arrangements in patch panels or switches. The metal jacket protects the sensitive glass fibre from external influences such as mechanical pressure, bending, or pulling, which is especially important when the fibre is frequently moved or used in harsh environments. The designation Heavy Duty Line highlights the high load capacity and suitability for demanding operating conditions.

Compatibility and Accessories
The fibre is designed for use with network test equipment and other devices supporting LC connectors. It is part of the Softing IT Networks product line, specifically developed for measurement technology. Use in combination with other components of the Heavy Duty Line is possible to create a consistent and robust system. The fibre is not intended for use in standard networks without specific requirements for mechanical durability.

Installation and Mounting
Installation is performed by simply plugging the LC connectors into the corresponding ports on the devices. The metal jacket facilitates handling by protecting the fibre from damage. Care should be taken to avoid excessive bending or compression of the fibre, even though the jacket reduces mechanical stress.

Operational Advantages
The high mechanical strength of the metal jacket reduces the risk of breaks or faulty connections, increasing operational reliability. The 75 m length allows flexible arrangements without additional extensions. The use of LC connectors ensures universal compatibility with modern network devices. The fibre is designed for professional environments where reliability and longevity are critical.
