Overview
The FiberXP SC/APC to SC/APC single-mode fiber optic patch cable is a high-precision simplex jumper designed for reliable signal transmission in demanding network environments. Engineered with bend-insensitive fiber technology, this cable maintains performance integrity even when installed in tight spaces or complex cable management systems.
This patch cable features a robust 2.8mm PVC jacket and high-quality angle-polished (APC) connectors to minimize back reflection. Each unit is 100% optically tested to ensure consistent connectivity, and the package includes individual test data to verify performance standards for your specific assembly.
Key Features
-
Bend-Insensitive Fiber

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the BI in the model number signify?
BI stands for Bend Insensitive, indicating that the fiber is engineered to withstand tighter bend radii than standard single-mode fibers without significant signal degradation.
Are these cables suitable for outdoor installation?
These cables are intended for indoor patch panel or equipment rack use. They are not rated for external environmental exposure.
Does this cable come with test results?
Yes, each cable is 100% optically tested and the actual test data is included in the package.
What is the difference between UPC and APC?
APC (Angle-Polished) connectors are polished at an 8-degree angle to minimize back reflection, which is ideal for high-performance single-mode applications like PON or CATV.
Is this a duplex cable?
No, this is a simplex patch cable.
