LC/PC-LC/PC Duplex Patch Cord No Armour 5m (LC-PC-LC-PC-DU-5M)

Fiber optic patch cable often called fiber optic patch cord or fiber jumpercable.A fiber optic patch cord is constructed from a core with a high refractiveindex, surrounded by a coating with a low refractive index, that is strengthenedby aramid yarns and surrounded by a protective jacket. Transparency of the corepermits transmission of optic signals with little loss over great distances. Thecoating's low refractive index reflects light back into the core, minimizingsignal loss.The protective aramid yarns and outer jacket minimizes physical damage to thecore and coating. Fiber optic patch cables can be divided into different typesbased on fiber cable mode, cable structure, connector types, connector polishingtypes and cable sizes.A patch cord is always fitted with connectors at both ends. A pigtail is similarto a patch cord and is the informal name given to a cable fitted with aconnector at one end and bare wires (or bare fiber) at the other.LC Type: LC stands for Lucent connectors. It is a small form-factor (SFF) fiberoptic connector.FC Type: FC stands for Ferrule Connection. It is fixed by way of a threadedbarrel housing. The connector is precision made and manufactured to demandingspecifications. The combination of a ceramic ferrule and a precision nickelplated brass housing provides consistent long-term mechanical and opticalperformance.SC Type: SC stands for Subscriber Connector. It is fixed by way of push-pulllatching mechanism which provides quick insertion and removal while alsoensuring a positive connection.
