£15.05 inc. VAT
AI-generated summary
For £12.55 ex-VAT, this is the kind of simple, practical fibre jumper you buy when you just need a known-good bit of multimode cabling to link kit together—patch panel to transceiver, comms cabinet to switch, short internal runs where you’re not going to stress the link. The LC/ST ends are a nice fit if your organisation already uses that pairing, and the LSZH jacket is the right “don’t make life difficult for facilities” choice for typical UK office/cabling environments.
That said, I wouldn’t buy this unless you’re sure you’re matching your network’s multimode setup *and* the connector types. Fibre failures are usually boring admin mistakes—wrong fibre type (or wrong optics expectations), or the wrong ends—so if there’s any chance you need SC-to-SC (or singlemode), look elsewhere. Also, at 2m it’s not for tidy longer internal routes across rooms; it’s a jumper, not a “solve the whole install” cable. If you’ve got the right endpoints and fibre type, it’s good value and will save you hassle. If you’re unsure, spend the extra time confirming before you order, because fibre returns are never fun.
