Types Of Fiber Optic Patch Cable As we know, Fiber Optic Patch Cord is a fiber optic cable capped at either

end with connectors that allow it to be rapidly and conveniently connected to CATV, an optical switch, or other telecommunication equipment. Having a thick layer of protection, it is used to connect the optical transmitter, receiver, and the terminal box. This is known as interconnect-style cabling. Optical patchcord is the best choice for CATV, Telecom Server, Subscriber Loop, Fiber-to-the-home, and Local Area Network (LAN) applications.There is another type of fiber cable assembly called Pigtail, its a short optical fiber permanently attached to a source, detector, or other fiber optic device at one end and an optical connector at the other. Fiber optic pigtails are specially for optical device connectivity. Fiber Optic Patch Cords are designed to interconnect or cross connect fiber networks within structured cabling systems. The fiber patch cables types including common single-mode 9/125, OM1 62.5/125, OM2 50/125, 10G OM3/OM4 patch cables, armored patch cables, fiber optic pigtails, multi core patch cables, MPO/MTP patch cables and other special patch cables. The fiber patchcord are all available with the SC, ST, FC, LC, MU, MTRJ, E2000, APC/UPC terminations optical connector. Typical fiber connector interfaces are SC, ST, and LC in either multimode or single-mode applications. FiberCasa supply fiber optic patch cable with different connector and cable type, and we also can customize patch cables in any cut length. Fiber optic patch cable types: A fiber patch cords is made of 2 major parts: Optical connector and fiber optic cable. 1)By Optical connector: LC fiber patch cable; FC patch cable; SC fiber cable; ST patch cable; MU fiber patch cable; MTRJ patch cord; E2000 patch cable; MPO fiber cable. 2)By fiber optic cable types Single mode fiber optic cable: Generally in yellow color and used for long transmission distance; Multimode fiber optic cable: Generally the multimode patch cable are orange or gray and are used for short distance transmission. 3)By fiber optic cable Jacket PVC: Non-Flame Retardant; LSZH : Low smoke zero halogen, Flame Retardant Fiber optic patch cable features: Fiber optic connector type: LC, FC, SC, ST, MU, MTRJ, E2000,MPO Ferrule Interface type: PC, UPC, APC Fiber cores: Simplex, duplex, 4 fibers, 8 fibers etc. Fiber type: Single mode (G.652, G655), multimode(50/125)/(62.5/125) 100% Insertion Return Loss, End Face and Interference inspection Low insertion loss, high return loss Excellent mechanical endurance Insertion loss: <0.5 dB Operation temperature: -20 to 85C 10G OM3 OM4 fiber cable available
