BlueOptics Simplex Fibre Optic Patch Cable SC-UPC/SC-APC Single Mode 0.5m

The BlueOptics Simplex Fibre Optic Patch Cable SC-UPC/SC-APC Single Mode 0.5m is a high-performance, pre-terminated fibre optic cable designed for reliable, low-loss connections in data centers, telecommunications, LAN, and FTTx applications. With a length of 0.5 meters, it is ideal for short-distance patching between network devices.

Advantages

This cable offers exceptional signal integrity with low insertion loss (≤0.3 dB) and high return loss (≥50 dB for SC/UPC, ≥60 dB for SC/APC). The LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket ensures safety in enclosed spaces, while the durable zirconia ceramic ferrules guarantee long-lasting performance over 500 mating cycles.

Suitable for

• Data center interconnects
• Telecommunications networks
• Local Area Networks (LAN)
• FTTx deployments
• Any single-mode fibre application requiring SC/UPC to SC/APC connectivity
