FC/UPC-0.9mm-SM : la liaison numérique robuste et performante

Built for environments where reliability cannot be left to chance, the FC/UPC-0.9mm-SM pigtail delivers secure, low-loss digital connectivity. It combines the proven, threaded stability of the FC interface with the space-saving benefits of a 0.9mm cable, creating an optimal solution for industrial networks, secure communications backbones, and legacy digital system upgrades.

Description

Product Summary: Strength in a Slim Profile

The FC/UPC-0.9mm-SM is designed for applications demanding:

  • Physical Connection Security: The threaded FC mechanism resists accidental disconnection caused by vibration, cable stress, or incidental contact.

  • Optimized Digital Performance: UPC polish provides excellent low insertion loss (< 0.3 dB) for high-speed data transmission (10G, 25G, 100G Ethernet).

  • High-Density Potential: The 0.9mm cable allows for efficient routing in conduit and patch panels, supporting higher fiber counts in upgrade scenarios.

  • Legacy Compatibility: Directly replaces older FC/UPC installations while offering modern performance and a slimmer cable profile.

Installation & Application Insights

Typical Deployment Scenarios:

  • Industrial Ethernet Backbones (e.g., Power Substations, Manufacturing)

  • Broadcast & Professional Video Transport Links

  • Military & Aerospace Secure Coms

  • Legacy Telecom SDH/SONET Ring Maintenance

Critical Installation Note:
While the threaded design is secure, it should be hand-tightened only. Over-tightening with tools can damage the ferrule or adapter. The connection is secure at a firm hand-tightened state.


Q: In a new installation, why choose FC/UPC over the more common LC or SC?
A : Choose FC/UPC when the primary design driver is mechanical security in a dynamic or harsh environment. If the installation is in an industrial setting, on a mobile platform, or in an area with high vibration where a push-pull latch (SC/LC) might disengage, the threaded FC connector provides a fundamentally more reliable physical layer.

Q: Does the slim 0.9mm cable affect the connector’s pull-out strength?
A : Le pull-out strength is determined by the connector’s retention mechanism and how well the cable is anchored (strain-relieved) into the connector body. A properly manufactured 0.9mm pigtail will have the cable potted and anchored within the connector to withstand standard tensile loads. The key is ensuring the cable is not subjected to sharp bends or pinch points right at the connector boot.
