Single Mode SC/APC-LC/PC simplex patchcord

The SC/APC–LC/PC simplex single-mode patch cord is a key component in modern fiber optic networks, enabling high-quality and reliable connections between devices with different types of connectors. Thanks to the use of SC/APC and LC/PC connectors, it ensures signal stability and minimal loss, which is essential for efficient data transmission.
Simplex fiber optic patch cords consist of a single fiber strand terminated with connectors on both ends. They are typically manufactured using indoor cables with diameters of 2.0 mm, 2.4 mm, or 2.8 mm. Custom versions can also be produced using special cables or with additional protective conduit.

Connector type

SC/APC (Angled Physical Contact) connectors minimize signal reflection thanks to their 8-degree angled end face, improving transmission quality.

LC/PC (Physical Contact) connectors ensure direct ferrule contact, reducing signal loss.
