FiberXP SC/APC-SC/APC Fiber Patch Cable Single Mode Simplex, 1m

Overview

The FiberXP® SC/APC to SC/APC single mode fiber optic patch cable is a precision-manufactured simplex patch cable designed for reliable signal transmission in telecommunications and high-speed data networks. Featuring a 2.8mm PVC jacket, this cable provides essential durability for patch panel and rack-to-device connectivity.

Engineered for low-loss applications, each cable is 100% optically tested for insertion loss and back reflection performance. Its simplex design ensures efficient single-strand fiber management, making it an ideal choice for both enterprise-level data centers and carrier network environments requiring high-precision angle-polished connectivity.

Technical Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the APC designation mean?
APC stands for Angled Physical Contact. The connector ferrule is polished at an 8-degree angle to reduce back reflection (return loss) in the connection.

Is this cable suitable for outdoor use?
No, this cable is designed for indoor use. Its PVC jacket is not rated for exposure to environmental elements found outdoors.

Can I use this with SC/UPC ports?
No. APC connectors are not compatible with UPC (flat) connectors. Connecting them can cause permanent damage to the end-face of the fiber.

What does simplex mean?
Simplex means the cable contains a single strand of fiber, supporting communication in one direction or a single signal path.

Is this cable compliant with TAA regulations?
No, this specific part number is marked as non-TAA compliant.
