SC/UPC–LC/UPC Armoured Single-Mode Fiber Optic Patch Cord

The SC/UPC–LC/UPC Armoured fiber patch cord is a carrier-grade, high-durability single-mode jumper designed for telecom networks, data centers, FTTH systems, and industrial fiber installations. With a rugged SC connector on one end and a compact LC connector on the other, this cable delivers both secure panel connectivity and high-density transceiver compatibility.

The metal-armoured cable structure provides superior protection against crushing, rodent damage, sharp bends, and mechanical stress, making it ideal for outdoor cabinets, cable trays, and harsh installation environments.

Description

Why Choose SC to LC in an Armoured Design

SC connectors are widely used in ODFs and patch panels, offering a strong latch and easy handling.
LC connectors dominate SFP+, QSFP, and modern transceiver ports, enabling high-density switching.

By combining SC–LC interfaces with armoured protection, this patch cord allows integrators and operators to deploy OS2 fiber in real-world environments without risking physical damage or signal loss.

Why OS2 Single-Mode + Armoured Matters

OS2 fiber supports long-distance and high-speed networks (10G, 25G, 40G, 100G+).
When combined with an armoured structure, it becomes a field-ready solution that reduces breakage, downtime, and maintenance cost for operators and integrators.


Professional FAQ

Q1: Is this cable suitable for outdoor telecom cabinets?
Yes. The armoured structure protects the fiber from crushing, rodents, and environmental stress, making it ideal for outdoor enclosures.

Q2: Can this be used in FTTH and PON networks?
Absolutely. The OS2 single-mode fiber and UPC polishing support GPON, XG-PON, and XGS-PON systems.

Q3: Is OEM or private labeling available?
Yes. We provide OEM, ODM, private branding, and customized packaging for distributors and integrators.

Q4: What is the typical MOQ for bulk orders?
MOQ is flexible, supporting small trial orders and large project sourcing.

Q5: Does the armoured layer affect optical performance?
No. The armouring provides mechanical protection only and does not increase optical loss.

Q6: What kind of customers usually buy this model?
It is commonly sourced by telecom operators, FTTH contractors, system integrators, and fiber optic distributors.
