Product Description
The SC/APC-SC/UPC Fiber Patch Cords OS2 G.652.D 3.0mm 3m (Part number: PCSCAPC-UPC3MALT) from ALT AMERICAN LINE TERMINAL is a patch cord with SC/APC 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.
The ALTPATCHCORDSD-SERIE is a high-precision connecting cable designed for the construction of optical networks in various environments and applications. Additionally, we offer a wide range of connector options, including ST, FC, SC, LC, etc., with PC, APC, or UPC polishing.
ALT's patch cords are composed of high-quality connectors with a zirconia ferrule. Customers can request this cable with different connector types, standard for single-mode fiber (G.652.D / G.657.A1 or A2) or multimode optical fiber.

Fiber Type (ITU) - OS2 G.652.D
Each type of single-mode fiber has its own area of application, and the evolution of these optical fiber specifications reflects the evolution of transmission system technology from the earliest installation of single-mode optical fiber to the present day. Choose the right fiber is very important for each project/installation. The specification of the OS2 fiber is generally considered as the SMF standard for the single-mode fiber. For the OS2 G.652 fiber there are 4 subcategories: G.652.A, G.652.B, G.652.C, G.652.D.
The OS2 G.652.D single-mode fibers are the most used type of fiber for networking and communications applications. The OS2 G.652.D fiber type provides a zero dispersion at 1310nm wavelength therefor it is optimized for operation in the 1310nm Wavelength. The regular performance remains on the 1550nm wavelength.
Benefits of using the OS2 G.652.D fibers:
- Backward compatibility with earlier versions;
- Lower system cost;
- Offers zero water peak and seamless splicing;
- Lower splicing losses;
- Supports longer cable runs.
FO Connector Type 1 - SC
SC FO Connector is a type of fiber optic connector that uses a 2.5mm ceramic ferrule to align and connect optical fibers. Used in high-speed data communication networks. Provides low insertion loss and high return loss. The connector is easy to install and provides a secure, reliable connection for both single-mode and multimode fiber optic cables. Its locking mechanism ensures a stable connection and the push-pull design makes it easy to connect and disconnect. The SC connector is commonly used in data centers, telecommunication rooms, and other high-density fiber optic installations.
FO Polish Connector 1 - APC
APC (Angled Physical Contact) FO Polish Connector Type 1 is a fiber optic connector that uses an angled endface to achieve low back reflection and insertion loss. It features a 1.25mm ceramic ferrule and is commonly used in telecommunications and data networking applications where low back reflection is critical. The APC connector offers high precision and reliability, making it suitable for use in single-mode fiber networks. However, the angled endface of the APC connector requires special polishing techniques, making it more expensive than other connector types.
