High Quality LC-UPC/SC-UPC Duplex Fiber Optic Patch Cords offer superior quality & performance.
The LC/UPC-SC/UPC Fiber Optic Patch Cord Duplex SM 2mm LSZH 1m Yellow (Part number: 48417100HDHY) from Canovate is a Duplex patch cord with LC/UPC connector at one side and a SC/UPC connector at the other one. Fiber patch cords are a type of cables that have two connectors on both ends. Optic patch cords can come in simplex (1 fiber), duplex (2 fibers) or in MPO (12 fibers). The connectors on both sides of the patch cord, allow it to be quickly connected to another device such as an optical switch or other telecommunications/computer device.
Fiber optic patch cords are optical fiber cables that terminate on both ends in connectors. The connectors allow for the optical fiber to be quickly and reliably “patched in” to a fiber optic network. Patch cords using LC connectors (Lucent Connector – sometimes referred to as the Little Connector due to its small size) were developed by Lucent Technologies using a 1.25mm ferrule. LC connectors feature a retaining tab to keep out dust and protect the fiber optics from damage. The small footprint of LC connectors makes it an ideal solution for the densely populated racks and cabinets of a data center environment. SC (variously known as Subscriber, Square, and Standard Connector) patch cords are capped with a push-pull snap coupling with a 2.5mm diameter ferrule. The durable, efficient design is popular in point-to-point and passive networks. LC-UPC/SC-UPC 1m Fiber Patch Cord (Yellow) is a duplex connector that connects patching panels, network and server equipments.
LSZH (low smoke, zero halogen) is a jacket material that is designed to limit the release of smoke and toxic fumes in the event of a fire. It is made without halogens, which makes it environmentally friendly and safe for human health. LSZH is highly resistant to moisture and chemicals, making it suitable for harsh environments. It is commonly used in public buildings, transportation systems, and other areas where safety is a primary concern. However, LSZH may be more expensive than other materials, and it may have a lower temperature rating, which may limit its use in certain applications.
A Duplex configuration is a type of cabling arrangement commonly used in data centers and telecommunication networks. It consists of a two fibers cable , terminated with two connector at each end. It is normaly used in Simplex data transmition.
LC FO Connector is a small form factor fiber optic connector that uses a 1,25mm ceramic ferrule to align and connect optical fibers. Used in high-speed communication networks.Provides low insertion loss and high return loss. The connector is easy to install and provides a secure and reliable connection for both single-mode and multimode fiber optic cables. Its compact size makes it ideal for applications where space is limited, such as data centers, telecommunication rooms, and fiber-to-the-home installations.
UPC (Ultra Phisical Contact), is a type of polishing procedure that makes a connical end face ferrule minimizing the interference of dust particules in the connectors mate. It as a Return loss >-50dB. UPC connectors may only be mated with other UPC or PC connectors. It can be identified by the blue boot and is used in single-mode and multi-mode fibers.
