Names the fibre standard, the bend grades it matches and the 8-degree angle

nexinex 1 m simplex OS2 LC/APC to LC/APC, G.652D, 3.0 mm LSZH

The lead that documents its glass better than any other here — a fibre standard, two bend grades and the polish angle in degrees — and then publishes not one figure for what its connectors actually lose.

nexinex yellow simplex fibre patch cable with green LC/APC connectors

nexinex 1 m simplex OS2 LC/APC to LC/APC, G.652D, 3.0 mm LSZH

The lead that documents its glass better than any other here — a fibre standard, two bend grades and the polish angle in degrees — and then publishes not one figure for what its connectors actually lose.

Fibre type
Single-mode — stated in the title and in the third bullet as OS2 single-mode 9/125 µm
Fibre grade
OS2 — stated in the title and in the first and third bullets. The third adds the fibre standard G.652D and says it is compatible with G.657.A2 and B2; the fifth calls it a laser-optimised OS2 fibre
Connector types at each end
LC/APC at both ends — stated in the title and in the first bullet, which gives the APC angle as 8 degrees, the only lead on this shelf to print it
Simplex or duplex
Simplex — stated in the title and in the first and third bullets. One strand, one connector at each end
Polarity arrangement
Not published on the listing, and a simplex lead has no pair to cross. What the first bullet gives in its place is colour: a yellow jacket and green connectors
Length
1 m — stated in the title and in the first and third bullets
Jacket rating
LSZH — stated in the third bullet with a diameter of 3.0 mm, and explained in the fourth as Low Smoke Zero Halogen, producing far less toxic smoke in a fire than a PVC cable and recommended for interiors and public areas
Polish type
APC — carried by the LC/APC designation and given as an 8-degree angle in the first bullet. No insertion loss and no return loss figure appears anywhere on the page
Armouring
Not published on the listing — no armour is named. The fifth bullet lists applications instead: FTTH, 10 Gigabit, and two designations printed as 40GBase-SR4 and 100GBase-SR10, the first of them carrying a stray character in front of the number

On the listing

A 1 m simplex single-mode fibre patch cable, OS2, with LC/APC connectors at both ends given an 8-degree angle, a yellow jacket and green connectors; a fibre described as 9/125 µm to G.652D and compatible with G.657.A2 and B2, in a 3.0 mm LSZH sheath; a stated use between a fibre termination point and an ONT for FTTH, FTTB and FTTx, with providers named from Deutsche Telekom and Vodafone to M-Net, NetCologne and o2, and routers such as the FRITZ!Box; an explanation of LSZH as producing very little toxic smoke in a fire compared with PVC; and a laser-optimised OS2 fibre offered for FTTH, 10 Gigabit and two higher designations.

OS2, G.652D and the 8-degree angle

Three published facts about the glass and the face, where most listings on this shelf publish one.

The grade is OS2. The fibre standard behind it is G.652D. The bend grades it is said to match are G.657.A2 and B2. Then the first bullet does something no other lead in this hub does: it prints the polish angle, 8 degrees.

That angle is what APC means. It is why an angled connector cannot be pushed into a flat-faced socket and expected to work, and why the two are given different colours in the first place. Printing the number turns a pair of letters into a measurement.

One strand where the duplex leads carry two

Simplex, stated three times over.

That is the right shape for the job this lead is sold for. The second bullet lists a page of German providers and puts the lead between a fibre termination point and an ONT, which on those installations is a single-strand connection, and four of the seven leads on this shelf are built the same way.

The trade is that a simplex lead has nothing to offer a two-strand transceiver in a cabinet, where a duplex pair does. It is a lead for the wall socket, not for the switch.

The yellow jacket and the green connectors

Colour is doing real work on this page and it deserves its own line.

Yellow is how a single-mode lead is told from a multimode one when both are in the same drawer, and green is how an angled connector is told from a flat one. Neither is decoration: the two commonest fibre mistakes are running the wrong glass and mating the wrong face, and both are visible from across a room if the colours are right.

The first bullet states both, which is more than most listings bother with.

What the page never measures

No insertion loss. No return loss. Not a decibel anywhere on the page.

Four of the seven leads on this shelf publish both figures, and one of them publishes a return loss of 60 dB or better. Here the connectors are described as high-quality and the fibre as laser-optimised, and adjectives are what you get.

The fifth bullet adds a list of applications — FTTH, 10 Gigabit, and two designations printed as 40GBase-SR4 and 100GBase-SR10, the first with a stray character in front of it — without saying which of them a 1 m lead is specified for. That is a claim about the fibre family rather than about the object in the bag.

Before ordering

Check that both sockets are APC, because 8 degrees is not a preference and a flat face will not meet it. Confirm you need one strand rather than two. And if the connector quality matters for your run, note that this page publishes none of the numbers that would describe it — three of its neighbours do.

    30 m — stated in the title twice over. The fifth bullet gives the range the lead is sold in, from 0.5 m to 100 m
    Jacket rating
    LSZH — stated in the first bullet. The third then describes the outer sheath as a halogen-free, flame-retardant copolymer and names an inner sheath of PVC, which is the only mention of PVC on the page and sits awkwardly beside the LSZH claim
    Polish type
    APC — carried by the LC/APC designation at both ends. No angle, no insertion loss and no return loss figure is published; the fourth bullet says instead that leads are individually packed and supplied with a measurement report
    Armouring
    Not published on the listing — the third bullet names a filled loose tube and non-metallic strength members, which is a construction rather than an armour, and describes the lead as an indoor cable for laying inside buildings

    EXTRALINK 19-inch 9U cabinet, 400 mm deep, 340 mm of equipment depth stated, 60 kg load

    The cabinet that answers the question its neighbours dodge: it publishes not just its own 400 mm depth but the 340 mm of equipment that will go inside it, and ships a shelf in the same box.

    Rack units
    Nine — stated in the title, alongside a depth of 400 mm
    Mounting width
    19-inch — stated in the title and repeated in the first and third bullets, which call it a 19-inch rack and a 19-inch network cabinet
    Usable internal depth
    Given as an equipment depth rather than a rail measurement: the third bullet says the cabinet takes the commonest network devices up to a depth of 340 mm, naming switches, servers, patch panels and CCTV recorders. The cabinet itself is 400 mm deep, so the 60 mm difference is stated by implication rather than as a rail-to-rail figure
    Wall or floor mounting
    Either — the fifth bullet says it can be hung on a wall or stood free, and calls that complete flexibility regardless of the size and layout of the room
    Rail arrangement
    Not published on the listing — no number of rails, no depth adjustment and no hole pattern is named. The first bullet says the full mounting hardware is included and the assembly takes about fifteen minutes with no specialist knowledge
    Door type
    Lockable, with a 180-degree opening stated in the title. The second bullet gives protection of the equipment as the reason for the lock. The door material is not published on the listing
    Ventilation
    Ventilation slots — named in the fourth bullet together with cable entries, credited with optimal cooling of the equipment and a tidier cable arrangement. No fan aperture and no vent dimension is given
    Stated load rating
    60 kg — stated in the title as the carrying capacity
    Cable entries
    Named in the fourth bullet as cable feed-throughs alongside the ventilation slots, credited with an aesthetically pleasing cable arrangement. Their number, position and whether they carry brush strips is not published on the listing
    Lock type
    Not published on the listing — the door is described as lockable in the second bullet and no lock pattern, key type or barrel is named

    The dearest cabinet in this hub and the only one that answers the question the whole shelf turns on: it publishes an internal depth of 350 mm beside an external one of 450 mm, in the same bullet.

    Rack units
    Nine — stated in the title and in the first bullet, which calls it a solid 9U 19-inch wall-mounted network cabinet
    Mounting width
    19-inch — stated in the title and in the first and second bullets, the latter naming four adjustable 19-inch mounting rails
    Usable internal depth
    350 mm — the fifth bullet gives the internal dimensions as 500 × 350 × 400 mm in width, depth and height, against outer dimensions of 600 × 450 × 500 mm. It is the only listing on this shelf that publishes an internal figure for all three axes
    Wall or floor mounting
    Wall — stated in the title and in the first bullet, which includes a drilling template in the delivery
    Rail arrangement
    Four flexibly adjustable 19-inch mounting rails — stated in the second bullet. It is the only cabinet on this shelf to publish a rail count, and four rails is the arrangement that supports equipment at the rear as well as the front
    Door type
    Lockable glass with a reversible hinge — the second bullet names a changeable door stop for individual adaptation, and the fourth a lockable door with a lock
    Ventilation
    Ventilation holes in the floor and top plates for optimal air circulation — stated in the third bullet, with the fourth adding a provision for fan mounting. No fan size and no aperture dimension is published
    Stated load rating
    Not published on the listing — no static load figure appears. The fifth bullet gives the cabinet’s own weight as 19 kg and the first calls the construction solid
    Cable entries
    Above and below — stated in the fourth bullet as cable feed-throughs at the top and the bottom for tidy cabling, alongside the lockable door
    Lock type
    Not published on the listing — the fourth bullet names a lockable door with a lock and gives no pattern, key type or barrel

    Mounting width
    19-inch — stated in the title and in the first bullet
    Usable internal depth
