Description
Why FC + Armoured is a Powerful Combination
FC connectors are known for their screw-on metal body, which prevents micro-movement that can introduce optical instability. This makes them a favorite in carrier networks and test environments.
Lorsqu'il est associé à un câble armé, the result is a patch cord that resists:
-
Écrasement et traction
-
Morsures de rongeurs
-
Sharp bends
-
Accidental stepping or pinching
It’s the perfect solution for optical links that must work reliably in real-world, non-laboratory conditions.

Where It’s Commonly Used
-
FTTx and carrier networks
-
Armoires de télécommunication pour l'extérieur
-
Ethernet industriel
-
Railway and utility communication systems
-
Fiber test and measurement setups
The armoured structure ensures stable optical performance even in harsh or high-risk installation environments.
Signal Quality You Can Trust
UPC polishing creates a smooth, convex end face that ensures strong physical contact between fibers, reducing insertion loss and Fresnel reflection. With return loss ≥ 50 dB, ce câble offre clean, low-noise transmission pour data, voice, and optical control systems.
Built to Outlast Standard Patch Cords
Unlike standard PVC-jacket jumpers, the armoured FC-FC cord can be safely routed through:
-
Metal conduits
-
Conduits de sol
-
Outdoor cable trays
-
Equipment racks
without worrying about crushing or accidental damage.
Questions et réponses professionnelles
Q1: Is this cable suitable for outdoor use?
Oui. structure blindée provides protection against mechanical stress and rodents, making it ideal for outdoor cabinets and base stations.
Q2: Can this support 10G and 25G links?
Absolutely. OS2 single-mode fiber supports 10G, 25G, 40G, and even 100G over long distances.
Q3: Why choose FC connectors instead of LC or SC?
Les connecteurs FC offrent threaded locking, making them more stable in vibration-prone or test-equipment environments.
Q4: Does armouring affect optical performance?
No. The armouring protects the fiber without introducing extra optical loss.
