OPTIX yksimuotokuitu-kaapeli SC/UPC SC/APC simplex 1 m LSZH keltainen

Unlike standard patch cords that compromise on connector precision, this OPTIX single-mode simplex cable pairs SC/UPC and SC/APC terminations to deliver exceptional return loss and stable optical performance. The 1-meter length is ideal for short interconnects in FTTH, data centers, and telecommunication racks where space is limited but reliability is non-negotiable.

Highlights

• Single-mode 9/125 µm fiber for long-distance, high-bandwidth transmission
• Simplex construction with one fiber for straightforward point-to-point links
• SC/UPC connector on one end, SC/APC on the other for mixed interface compatibility
• Low insertion loss (< 0.3 dB typical) ensures minimal signal degradation
• High return loss: > 50 dB (UPC) and > 60 dB (APC) reduces reflections
• LSZH yellow jacket for safety in enclosed spaces and easy identification
• Zirconia ceramic ferrules for precise alignment and durability

In daily use

This patch cord excels in environments where different connector types must be joined without adapters. The SC/UPC end connects to standard equipment ports, while the SC/APC end suits high-return-loss applications like PON or RF-over-fiber. The 3.0 mm LSZH jacket is robust yet flexible, resisting kinks and maintaining signal integrity. With a wide operating temperature range from -20°C to +70°C, it performs reliably in climate-controlled and moderately harsh settings.
