Patchcord Extralink SC/UPC–SC/UPC Singlemode G.652D Simplex 100 m drop-kaapeli

Fiber optic patchcord Extralink SC/UPC–SC/UPC singlemode G.652D simplex 100 m drop cable is a pre-terminated singlemode fiber lead with SC/UPC connectors on both ends and a simplex construction. Intended for drop connections, fiber patching and equipment interlinks in access networks and FTTH installations, the cable uses ITU-T G.652D fiber to provide standard singlemode transmission performance over a 100 m length. The connectorized ends allow quick insertion into patch panels, optical distribution frames and active devices without field termination.

Advantages

This Extralink patchcord combines factory-polished SC/UPC connectors with G.652D singlemode fiber to ensure predictable attenuation and return loss suitable for typical access and last-mile links. The simplex design keeps routing straightforward in tight spaces and reduces bulk where only one fiber is required. At 100 m length, the cable covers typical drop spans between distribution points and premises or between equipment racks and optical modules.

Key specifications

How to use

Route the patchcord between the two connection points avoiding sharp bends and tensile stress; maintain bend radius recommended for singlemode fiber to prevent excess attenuation. Insert SC/UPC connectors into the corresponding adapter or transceiver until they click and ensure proper key alignment. For permanent installations, secure the cable with cable management hardware in the distribution frame or along the drop route. If cleaning is required, use fiber-grade cleaning tools on the connector ferrules before mating.

Recommendations

Store and install the patchcord in a dust-free environment; always inspect and clean SC/UPC endfaces before connection to maintain low insertion loss. Avoid repeated flexing near connector ends and protect the cable from crushing or exposure to liquids. For long-term installations, verify link loss with an optical power meter or OTDR after termination or splicing to confirm compliance with system loss budget.
