Overview
The FiberXP SC/APC to SC/APC single mode fiber optic patch cable is designed for precise, high-performance signal transmission in telecommunications and enterprise networks. This simplex cable is constructed with a durable 2.8mm PVC jacket, providing essential protection for internal fiber strands during installation and operation.
Featuring angle-polished (APC) connectors at both ends, this patch cable is optimized for applications where high return loss is critical, such as video transmission and high-speed data networks. Every unit is 100% optically tested to ensure consistent insertion loss and back reflection performance.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does SC/APC mean?
SC/APC refers to an SC connector with an angled physical contact polish, which is used to reduce back reflection (return loss) in the connection.
Is this cable suitable for outdoor use?
This cable is primarily designed for indoor use. Consult local codes for outdoor routing requirements.
Can I use this for multi-mode networks?
No, this is a single mode fiber cable and is not compatible with multi-mode equipment.
What is the jacket material?
The cable is constructed with a 2.8mm PVC jacket.
Are these cables pre-tested?
Yes, every unit is 100% optically tested for insertion loss and back reflection.
