FC/UPC to SC/UPC Single Mode Simplex Fiber Patch Cord

The FC/UPC to SC/UPC Single Mode Simplex (SM SX) patch cord is a high-performance hybrid jumper designed for critical telecommunications and industrial applications. This “Blue-to-Blue” cable provides a reliable bridge between the threaded, high-vibration resistant FC interface and the widely adopted push-pull SC standard.

As a staple for 2026 infrastructure, this jumper is engineered to deliver stable, low-attenuation performance in environments ranging from telecommunication central offices to rugged industrial automation floors.

Why This Hybrid Model is the B2B Choice

1. Mechanical Reliability and Versatility

  • FC/UPC End: Features a nickel-plated metallic screw-on housing that provides a constant, vibration-proof connection.

  • SC/UPC End: Utilizes the industry-standard square push-pull mechanism for rapid, secure deployment in patch panels and ODFs.

2. Verified Optical Precision

  • Low Loss: Tested insertion loss is strictly maintained under 0.3dB, maximizing your network’s power budget.

  • Signal Quality: The UPC polish on both ends ensures a return loss of at least 50dB, minimizing back-reflection in high-speed digital links.

3. Industrial-Grade Durability

  • High Tension: With a tension strength rating of $\geq 200\text{N}$, these jumpers withstand the physical stresses of routing through congested conduits and vertical cable trays.

  • Longevity: Rated for over 1000 mating cycles, ensuring long-term reliability even in testing environments where cables are frequently reconnected.

4. Certified Safety Compliance

  • LSZH Jacket: Our yellow jackets are made of Low Smoke Zero Halogen material, a mandatory requirement for modern commercial building codes to protect personnel and sensitive equipment from toxic fumes in the event of fire.


B2B Procurement FAQ

  • Q: Is this FC/UPC (Blue) connector compatible with FC/APC (Green) ports?

    • A: No. UPC and APC have different end-face geometries. Mixing them creates an air gap that results in high signal loss and potential ferrule damage. Always match Blue (UPC) to Blue ports.

  • Q: What is the benefit of the $\pm 40\text{nm}$ bandwidth rating?

    • A: It ensures that the fiber jumper maintains stable optical performance even if the operating wavelength shifts slightly, which is common in varied outdoor environments or older laser equipment.

  • Q: Can you provide bulk wholesale support?

    • A: As a dedicated B2B supplier, we provide 100% factory-tested cables with optional test reports (IL/RL) for high-volume orders, ensuring consistent quality for large-scale network rollouts.
