Patch-kaapeli Extralink LC/UPC - LC/UPC yksimuotokuitu G.652D 3 mm 0,5 m

Extralink LC/UPC - LC/UPC Single Mode G.652D 3 mm patchcord, 0.5 m long, is a simplex fibre optic cable designed for short, high-quality single-mode connections. Terminated with LC/UPC connectors on both ends and built with G.652D fibre, this patchcord is suitable for FTTH deployments, data centre interconnects and telecom equipment links where a low-loss, precise single-mode connection is required. The 3 mm cable diameter and 0.5 m length make it convenient for tidy routing between transceivers, patch panels and optical devices.

Advantages

The Extralink patchcord provides consistent single-mode performance with G.652D fibre optimized for 1310 nm and suitable for 10 Gbps systems. LC/UPC connectors ensure low back-reflection and reliable mating with common LC interfaces. The 3 mm jacket offers mechanical protection and manageable flexibility for short runs, while the simplex construction simplifies point-to-point links. This cable is factory-terminated and tested to deliver predictable insertion loss and repeatable connections.

Suitable for

• Connecting transceivers and SFP modules to patch panels
• Short interconnects in data centres and telecom racks
• FTTH customer premises connections between OLT and ONU/ONT
• Laboratory or testbench single-mode fibre links

Key specifications

• Fibre type: single-mode G.652D
• Connector type: LC/UPC on both ends (simplex)
• Cable diameter: 3.0 mm
• Length: 0.5 m
• Typical operating wavelength: 1310 nm (suitable for 10 Gbps)
• Minimum bending radius: 30 mm
• Construction: FTTH-type simplex patchcord

How to use

Route the patchcord between the two devices to be connected, avoiding tight bends below the specified 30 mm minimum bending radius. Align the LC/UPC connectors with the LC adapter on each device or patch panel and insert until the latch engages. For removal, press the LC latch and pull the connector straight out. Keep connector end faces clean; use appropriate fibre cleaning tools or wipes before mating to maintain low insertion loss and protect transceivers and optical ports.

Recommendations

Store unused patchcords coiled loosely and protected from dust. Inspect and clean connector end faces before every connection. Do not exceed the minimum bending radius or apply excessive tensile force; secure the cable to avoid strain on the connectors. Choose this Extralink 0.5 m LC/UPC–LC/UPC patchcord for reliable short single-mode links in FTTH and data centre environments.
