Siemens 6XV1873-5AN80 SIMATIC NET FO Standard Cable GP 50/125 80m LC Duplex Industrial Network Cable

The Siemens 6XV1873-5AN80 is a SIMATIC NET FO Standard Cable GP, a 50/125 µm OM2 multi-mode fiber-optic cable pre-assembled with 2x LC Duplex connectors and cut to a fixed 80 m length. It supports Industrial Ethernet runs up to 750 m over 1000BaseSX or 2000 m over 1000BaseLX, and PROFIBUS segments up to 3000 m, and carries UL c(UL)us OFN FT4 approval for indoor and outdoor installation.

Selection Notes

At 80 m, this length uses about 11% of the 750 m maximum reach permitted for 1000BaseSX over 50/125 multi-mode fiber, leaving margin for tray routing and slack loops. The LC Duplex termination plugs directly into SIMATIC NET switch, CP, and CPU fiber ports without a field splice or patch panel. Where a run falls short of or beyond this length, the same GP 50/125 OM2 cable is available in other preassembled lengths, so picking the closest listed length avoids surplus slack that would otherwise need cable management at both ends. Because the cable carries UL c(UL)us OFN FT4 approval for indoor and outdoor use, it can also cross from a control room into an outdoor junction box without a media-conversion transition.
