Product Features
Technical Overview
This patch cable utilizes OS2-grade single-mode fiber with a 9/125 µm core/cladding specification, supporting high-bandwidth, long-distance transmissions with low attenuation. The SC and LC connectors both feature male gender and standard boot types, with blue connector housings for quick visual identification.
The cable construction includes a Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) jacket rated OFNR for riser applications, providing fire resistance in plenum spaces. With no shielding required for fiber optic transmission, the design focuses on optical performance and physical durability. The cable is compatible with network devices requiring SC to LC connectivity.
This section brings together practical product details such as Cable Type, Cable Characteristic, Fiber Optic Mode, Color Family, so buyers can judge configuration, deployment fit, and day-to-day suitability with less guesswork.
Key Product Advantages
The Ultra Physical Contact (UPC) polish on both connectors delivers reliable optical performance with low back reflection, critical for maintaining signal integrity in single-mode fiber networks. This cable simplifies device connectivity across business networks while meeting infrastructure compliance requirements.
Optimized Connector Interface
SC to LC configuration bridges equipment with different port types, reducing the need for adapters in mixed-environment network racks.
- SC male connector on one end
- LC male connector on opposite end
- Blue connector color for easy identification
Compliant Construction
OFNR riser-rated yellow PVC jacket meets fire safety codes for vertical installations between floors in commercial buildings.
- Fire-resistant jacket material
- Riser-rated for plenum spaces
- Stranded design for installation flexibility
Deployment / Use Cases
This cable is ideal for network upgrades, expansions, or repairs requiring SC to LC connectivity. The 6.6 ft length provides sufficient reach for adjacent rack units or equipment within the same enclosure, while the yellow jacket offers high visibility for cable management and troubleshooting. Installers appreciate the standardized boot type and familiar connector designs for quick deployment.
Data Center Interconnects
Connect switches, routers, or servers with SC ports to storage or networking equipment featuring LC interfaces in rack environments.
Telecommunications Backbone
Patch single-mode fiber links between distribution frames or termination panels where different connector types are present.
Physical Profile
The cable features a bright yellow PVC jacket with blue connectors, providing clear visual differentiation in crowded network environments. With an approximate weight of 1.60 oz (45.36 g), the lightweight construction minimizes stress on ports during installation. The stranded cable design allows for tight bends without compromising fiber integrity, suitable for routing through cable trays, conduits, or direct equipment connections.

FAQ
What are the connector types on each end of this fiber patch cable?
This cable has an SC male connector on one end and an LC male connector on the opposite end. Both connectors feature blue housings and Ultra Physical Contact (UPC) polish for reliable single-mode fiber connections with minimal signal loss.
What does OFNR riser-rated mean for this cable's installation?
OFNR (Optical Fiber Non-conductive Riser) rating indicates the cable's yellow PVC jacket meets fire safety standards for vertical installations between floors in building riser spaces. This allows the cable to be used in plenum areas where fire resistance is required by building codes.
Is this cable suitable for single-mode or multimode fiber applications?
This is specifically a single-mode fiber patch cable with OS2 category fiber and a 9/125 µm core/cladding specification. It is designed for long-distance, high-bandwidth single-mode fiber networks, not multimode applications which typically use different core sizes like 50/125 µm or 62.5/125 µm.
What is the significance of the UPC polish on the connectors?
Ultra Physical Contact (UPC) polish creates a smoother fiber endface with less back reflection compared to standard physical contact polish. This results in better optical performance with lower insertion loss and return loss, which is particularly important for maintaining signal integrity in single-mode fiber networks.
Can this cable be used outdoors or in direct burial applications?
No, this cable has an OFNR riser-rated jacket designed for indoor vertical installations between floors. It is not rated for outdoor use, direct burial, or exposure to moisture. For outdoor applications, you would need a cable with appropriate outdoor-rated jacketing and protection.
What warranty coverage does this fiber patch cable include?
AddOn provides a 3 Year Lifetime limited warranty for this fiber patch cable. This warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship under normal use conditions, offering protection for the expected service life of the product in typical network environments.
