BlueOptics Simplex glasvezel-patchkabel LC/APC-SC/APC singlemode 3 meter

The BlueOptics Simplex Fibre Optic Patch Cable LC/APC-SC/APC Single Mode 3 Metres is a high-performance, professional-grade fibre optic patch cable designed for reliable and low-loss single-mode connections. Manufactured to OS2 standards (ITU-T G.652.D), this cable ensures excellent signal integrity for demanding network applications. The LC/APC to SC/APC connectors feature an angled physical contact (APC) polish, providing superior return loss performance (>60 dB) and minimal insertion loss (<0.2 dB). The simplex configuration (1 fibre) is ideal for point-to-point links. The cable jacket is made of LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) material, coloured yellow for easy identification, and has a 3.0 mm diameter for flexibility and durability. With a minimum bend radius of 30 mm and robust construction rated for 500 mating cycles, this cable is built to last in both indoor and data centre environments.

Advantages

This BlueOptics patch cable offers exceptional optical performance with typical insertion loss below 0.2 dB and return loss greater than 60 dB, ensuring minimal signal degradation. The LSZH jacket provides enhanced safety by reducing toxic and corrosive emissions in case of fire. The 3-metre length offers flexibility in patching between equipment without excess slack. The APC polish reduces back reflection, making it ideal for high-precision applications such as FTTx and CATV.

Suitable for

• Data centre fibre patching
