LC UPC to ST UPC Duplex OM1 Fiber Patch Cable

Upgrade projects can use this configuration where its interface and fiber map align with both the installed cabling and the new hardware. This OM1 fiber patch cable carries a LC UPC interface on one end and a ST UPC interface on the other, factory terminated on OM1 glass and optically tested as a whole assembly. The duplex zipcord construction keeps the transmit and receive strands paired in one assembly for fast, error-free patching.

Product Highlights

• Precision Zirconia Ferrule Connectors Ensure Low Loss
• Flame-Retardant Riser (OFNR) for Vertical and Floor-to-Floor Installations
• Color-Coded Cable Jacket for Easy Identification
• Duplex Zipcord Construction Reduces Risk of Damage from Crimping
• Pre-Terminated Cable Allows for Implementing Plug & Play Solutions

OM1 and OM2 cabling remains in service in industrial controls, building automation and older campus networks. The finished assembly matches that plant: the 62.5/125 or 50/125 core mates correctly with the current infrastructure, avoiding the modal mismatch that mixing core sizes would create.

When a legacy link fails, the intended repair is a cord that matches the deployed fiber grade. Patching OM1 with OM3 introduces a core-size transition that adds unpredictable loss, meaning that keeping a small stock of the right legacy jumpers is cheaper than troubleshooting a mismatched one.

Normal length options cover the common patching routes: 1m (3ft), 2m (7ft), 3m (10ft), 5m (16ft), with project-specific length available beyond the list. Specifying the measured route length keeps the slack out of the manager and the strain off the relevant connectors.

Each finished assembly is terminated with precision zirconia ferrule connectors and optically tested before packing: insertion loss and return loss are verified on every cable, and end-face geometry is inspected for consistent physical contact. The completed cable ships with dust caps on the two connectors and the test result available on request.

Refer to this configuration by connector pair, fiber mode and length when seeking a quotation. For configurations outside the listed options, mixed connector families, jackets, labelling or project packing, send the need with the inquiry and the factory will determine the build before the product is built. For upgrades, our team can compare the requested build with the existing environment before production begins.
