Multipatch Cable Extralink SC/APC-LC/PC SM 24F 30M Cascade 90cm

The Extralink Multipatch Cable SC/APC-LC/PC SM 24F 30M Cascade 90cm is a 24-fiber single-mode multipatchcord with a total length of 30 meters and a cascade termination that staggers individual connector lengths by 90 cm. Designed for high-performance fiber optic connections in structured cabling, the cable provides low optical loss and stable signal transmission for data center and network installations. The outer jacket features UV-resistant material that allows use in both indoor and outdoor environments where exposed routing is required.

Advantages

The multipatchcord reduces installation time by delivering a ready-made, multi-fiber connection between cabinets or patch panels and eliminates the need to assemble many single connectors on site. Cascade termination with 90 cm offset between fibers simplifies routing through wall penetrations and cable managers. UV-resistant jacketing increases durability for exposed runs while single-mode fiber optics ensure long-distance performance and consistent attenuation.

Suitable for

• Interconnecting patch panels in adjacent rooms or racks
• Short to medium single-mode fiber links in data centers
• Structured cabling where multiple fibers must be routed together
• Indoor and outdoor exposed fiber runs requiring UV resistance

Key specifications

• Fiber count: 24 single-mode fibers
• Length: 30 meters total with 90 cm cascade offset
• Connector types: SC/APC on one end, LC/PC on the other end
• Termination style: cascade (staggered connector lengths)
• Jacket: UV-resistant outer coating suitable for indoor/outdoor use
• Application: single-mode fiber for low-loss, long-reach links

How to use

Install the multipatch cable by routing the bundled cable through cable trays, conduits, or wall penetrations to reach both termination points. Choose the correct orientation for SC/APC and LC/PC connectors and insert them into the corresponding adapters or patch panel ports until they click into place. When using the cascade termination, plan the connector order and cable routing to match patch panel port positions and to avoid sharp bends; maintain minimum bend radius as recommended for single-mode fiber. Secure the cable jacket along its run with appropriate clamps or cable ties, avoiding excessive compression of the jacket or fibers.

Recommendations

Inspect connector end-faces before mating and clean with fiber-optic cleaning tools if necessary. Avoid tight bends and mechanical stress on the cable; follow standard single-mode handling practices. For outdoor exposed runs, ensure additional mechanical protection or conduits if the environment presents physical hazards beyond UV exposure.
