Corning LC/APC to LC/APC Simplex Single-Mode Fiber Patch Cable, 4m, White F222201J1Z20004M

Reliable fiber optic connections in tight spaces demand a cable that combines precision, durability, and ease of use. The Corning LC/APC to LC/APC simplex patch cable delivers exactly that, with a 4-meter length and a slim 2.0mm diameter that routes cleanly through cable managers and dense patch panels.

Who is it for

Network engineers and technicians who need a dependable single-mode link for data centers, telecom rooms, or FTTx deployments. The angled physical contact (APC) polish minimizes back reflections, making it suitable for high-sensitivity optical systems.

Main features

• LC/APC connectors on both ends with zirconia ceramic ferrules for consistent mating and long-term performance.
• Simplex single-mode OS2 fiber (G.657.A1/A2) with low attenuation: ≤0.35 dB/km at 1310nm and ≤0.25 dB/km at 1550nm.
• LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) white jacket for safety in enclosed spaces and easy identification.
• Typical insertion loss ≤0.25 dB and return loss ≥60 dB, ensuring signal integrity.
• 2.0mm outer diameter and 10mm minimum bend radius for flexible routing.
• Operating temperature range -20°C to +70°C, suitable for various environments.
