BlueOptics Simplex Fibre Optic Patch Cable SC-APC/SC-APC Singlemode 3 Metres

The BlueOptics Simplex Fibre Optic Patch Cable SC-APC/SC-APC Singlemode 3 Metres is a high-performance, singlemode fibre optic patch cable designed for reliable data transmission in telecommunications, data centres, and FTTH networks. Featuring SC-APC connectors on both ends, this cable ensures low insertion loss and high return loss, making it ideal for applications requiring minimal signal reflection.

Advantages

This cable offers exceptional signal integrity with an insertion loss of ≤0.2 dB and return loss of ≥60 dB, ensuring efficient and stable connections. The LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket provides enhanced safety in enclosed spaces, reducing toxic fumes and smoke in case of fire. The 3.0 mm cable diameter and 9/125 µm core/cladding ensure compatibility with standard singlemode equipment.
