What Makes This Cable Different
Most patch cords focus only on optical performance.
This one is built for optical performance plus survivability.
O APC (Contato Físico Angular) ferrules minimize back reflection, making the cable ideal for 1550 nm laser systems, RF-over-fiber, and high-power optical transmission.
O camada blindada protects the fiber against pulling, bending, rodent bites, and installation damage — a major advantage for outdoor or industrial deployment.
Meanwhile, the FC threaded connector ensures the ferrule stays locked in place, preventing micro-movement that can degrade signal quality over time.

The combination of APC polishing + armoured construction makes it especially suitable for long-haul and high-power optical links where reflection and physical damage must be minimized.
Why APC Matters in High-Performance Networks
Unlike UPC connectors, APC ferrules are polished at an 8-degree angle, forcing reflected light into the fiber cladding instead of back into the laser. This reduces:
-
Optical noise
-
Laser instability
-
Bit-error rate (BER)
With return loss ≥ 60 dB, APC connectors are the standard for CATV, PON, and RF-over-fiber systems.
Engineered for Harsh Environments
The armoured structure adds:
-
Resistência ao esmagamento
-
Proteção contra roedores
-
High tensile strength
-
Better bending durability
This allows the cable to be routed through cable trays, outdoor ducts, and industrial enclosures without the fragility of standard patch cords.
Perguntas e respostas profissionais
Q1: Can FC/APC connectors be used with UPC ports?
Não. APC and UPC must never be mixed — doing so can damage connectors and severely degrade performance.
Q2: Why is this cable ideal for CATV and RF-over-fiber?
Because APC connectors provide Reflexão traseira ultrabaixa, que é fundamental para sinais ópticos analógicos e de RF.
Q3: What advantage does the armoured cable provide?
It protects the fiber against crushing, pulling, rodents, and harsh installation environments, o que o torna ideal para outdoor and industrial use.
Q4: Is this cable suitable for 10G and PON systems?
Yes. It fully supports 10G, GPON, XG-PON, XGS-PON, and RF-over-fiber networks.
