SC APC to FC APC Simplex OS2 Fiber Patch Cable

High-density designs should assess this item together with panel access, cable routing and the complete optical loss allowance. This OS2 fiber patch cable carries a SC APC interface on one end and a FC APC interface on the other, factory terminated on OS2 glass and optically tested as a full product. The single-fiber structure suits bidirectional optics, monitoring taps and any channel that carries traffic over one strand.

Product Highlights

• G.657.A1 Bend Insensitive Fiber with 10mm Min. Bend Radius
• 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
• Ideal for Unidirectional Data Transmission

Patch fields are rarely kind to fiber. Leads pathway through tight managers, sharp tray corners and crowded vertical channels. The bend-insensitive glass in this terminated assembly tolerates a 10mm fiber bend radius; consequently, a hurried routing decision during a night upkeep window will not by itself turn into a measurable penalty on the channel.

Single-mode patching carries the links that leave the room: campus backbones, carrier handoffs, long runs between buildings and every wavelength-multiplexed service. The OS2 glass in this terminated assembly is the corresponding class used in the outside plant; consequently, the completed jumper will not by itself become the weak point of the link loss budget. At 1310 and 1550nm the attenuation stays a fraction of a decibel per kilometer, and this connector interface pair adds less than 0.3dB when the end faces are clean and seated.

Standard cable lengths cover the common patching routes: 1m (3ft), with custom length obtainable beyond the list. Specifying the measured pathway length keeps the slack out of the manager and the strain off these optical interfaces.

Each completed assembly is terminated with precision zirconia ferrule connectors and optically tested before packing: insertion loss and return loss are verified on each cable, and end-face geometry is inspected for consistent physical contact. This optical cable ships with dust caps on both connectors and the test result obtainable on ask for.

Refer to this arrangement by connector pair, fiber mode and length during the request for a quotation. For configurations outside the listed options, mixed connector families, jackets, marking or project packaging, send the requirement with the enquiry and the factory will review the build before manufacturing begins. Project orders can be reviewed for interface compatibility, packing details and delivery coordination.
