Overview
The FiberXP LC/APC to SC/UPC single-mode fiber optic patch cable is a simplex, bend-insensitive jumper designed for high-precision optical networks. It is constructed with a 2.0mm PVC jacket to ensure durability in standard operating environments.
Engineered for low signal degradation, this patch cable features an angle-polished (APC) LC connector and an ultra-polished (UPC) SC connector. Each assembly is 100% optically tested to ensure performance, making it a suitable choice for data center and telecommunications applications where connectivity reliability is essential.
Key Features
-
Bend-Insensitive Fiber
Features reduced sensitivity to bending, which minimizes signal loss during installation and operation. -
APC/UPC Polish
Combines LC/APC and SC/UPC polishing for optimal signal return loss and reflectance performance. -
Simplex Design
Single-fiber construction ideal for simple point-to-point connections. -
Low Insertion Loss
Guaranteed typically below 0.3dB to ensure strong link budgets. -
High Return Loss
Features >55dB return loss to minimize back-reflections in sensitive optical circuits. -
Protective Jacket
Includes a 2.0mm PVC jacket for cable management and physical protection. -
Factory Tested
Each cable is 100% optically tested, with documentation included.
Applications
- Telecommunications network links
- Data center equipment cross-connects
- Fiber optic test equipment interconnections
- Optical patching in enterprise networks
