BlueOptics Simplex Fibre Optic Patch Cable SC-UPC/SC-APC Singlemode 1 Metre

The BlueOptics Simplex Fibre Optic Patch Cable SC-UPC/SC-APC Singlemode 1 Metre is a high-performance, OS2-rated fibre optic patch cable designed for reliable singlemode connections in data centres, telecommunications, and enterprise networks. This cable features a SC/UPC connector on one end and a SC/APC connector on the other, ensuring low insertion loss and high return loss for optimal signal integrity.

Advantages

Engineered with premium zirconia ceramic ferrules and a 3.0 mm LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket, this cable provides excellent durability and safety. The yellow jacket colour enables easy identification of singlemode cables, while the simplex configuration is ideal for point-to-point links. With typical insertion loss below 0.3 dB and return loss exceeding 50 dB (UPC) and 60 dB (APC), it guarantees superior performance for high-speed data transmission.

Suitable for

• Fibre optic network installations requiring SC/UPC to SC/APC connectivity
• Singlemode OS2 applications in data centres, telecom rooms, and FTTH
• High-bandwidth links up to 10 Gbps and beyond
• Indoor environments where LSZH jacket is required for safety
