  • Eliminates OTDR dead zones with 1000 m G652D singlemode fiber
  • Low loss ≤ .5 dB/km ensures accurate measurements across full length
  • SC/APC to LC/UPC connectors provide versatile compatibility for test ports
  • Compact 6.25 in diameter by 1.25 in height with carabiner for field portability

OTDR Launch Cable Box G652D Singlemode 9/125

This fiber optic launch cable box eliminates the dead zone during OTDR testing by providing a known length of G652D singlemode fiber. It features SC/APC to LC/UPC connectors and contains 1000 meters of 9/125 fiber with a loss of .5 dB/km or less. The rugged, sealed enclosure protects the fiber during field use and transport.

For technicians verifying installed fiber links

Suitable for installers and network engineers who need to qualify singlemode fiber runs and require a portable launch reference. Not suited for multimode testing environments or applications requiring connectors other than SC/APC and LC/UPC. Buyers needing lengths shorter than 150m or longer than 2000m should look elsewhere.

Compact case with compound latch and carabiner clip

The 6.25 inch diameter by 1.25 inch high housing opens with a positive locking latch and clips to belts or racks for hands-free operation. No internal fusion splices reduce potential failure points. Ensure connector end faces are clean before mating to avoid high insertion loss or reflectance spikes.

Questions about this item

What OTDR port type does the SC/APC connector on this launch cable box mate with?

The SC/APC connector mates with an SC/APC port on the OTDR to eliminate the launch dead zone during single-mode testing.

Will the 1000 m G652D fiber in this box work with legacy 9/125 µm single-mode patch cords already in my rack?

Yes, the G652D 9/125 µm fiber is fully compatible with existing 9/125 µm single-mode patch cords and pigtails.

How do I confirm the launch cable is performing within spec after connecting it to my OTDR?

Verify the OTDR trace shows a clean launch pulse and measure insertion loss; it should be ≤ .5 dB/km for the 1000 m length.
