Products Description
FC/APC-FC/APC Simplex OS2 9/125 SMF Fiber Patch Cable
Overview
FC/APC-FC/APC Single-Mode (SM) SX OS2 9/125μm Patch Cord is a robust fiber optic solution engineered for high-performance, low-reflection connectivity in critical communication systems. Equipped with FC/APC connectors on both ends, it features Angled Physical Contact (APC) polishing to minimize back reflections and ensure superior signal integrity, making it ideal for applications like telecommunications, CATV, and high-speed data networks where precision and stability are paramount.
Built with OS2-grade single-mode fiber (9/125μm), this patch cord supports long-haul transmission distances exceeding 10 km and operates efficiently at wavelengths of 1310nm and 1550nm. The durable FC connectors, known for their threaded coupling mechanism, provide secure, vibration-resistant connections in harsh environments, while the LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket enhances safety and durability for both indoor and outdoor deployments.
Compliant with IEC, Telcordia, and ISO standards, this patch cord guarantees reliability in data centers, military installations, and industrial networks. Its APC connectors and low insertion loss ensure optimal performance in high-precision setups, and the rugged design caters to demanding scenarios requiring long-term stability. A cost-effective choice for maintaining high signal quality over extended distances.

How to choose correctly the cable jacket: PVC, LSZH or OFNP?
Fiber patch cables are now widely used for indoor applications like buildings, factories, office parks, campuses and so on. Whether you choose PVC, LSZH or OFNP jacket depends on where you're going to run the cable.
The features of PVC, LSZH and OFNP Jacket are as follows:
PVC cable resistant to oxidation and degradation, it is commonly used for horizontal runs from the wiring center.
LSZH cable has a special flam-retardant coating, it is between floors in a building.
OFNP cable is space within the building created by building components, design for the movement of air. It is usually work for vertical runs beween floors.
How to Choose The Right Fiber Optic Cable Type on OM3 or OM4?
The difference of OM4 and OM3 fiber mode as the following
OM4 was developed specifically for VSCEL laser transmission and allows 10 Gig / second link distances of up to 550 Meters (compared to 300M with OM3).
The effective modal bandwidth for OM4 is more than double that of OM3.
For OM4 patch cable it is 4700 MHz.km while for OM3 it is 2000 MHz.km.
