Optical Fiber Patch Cord

A fibre optic patch cord is also known as a fibre optic connector, it is a fibre optic cable equipped with connectors at both ends. If a cable has only one connector, it is called a pigtail. Fibre optic patch cord usually has a thick protective layer, it is usually used to connect the optical transmitter, receiver and terminal box. Fibre optic patch cords are widely applied in optical fibre communication systems, LANs, fibre optic data transmission and testing equipment.

Advantages of Fiber Optic Jumpers



Better Speeds

Optical fiber is much faster than copper, fiber transmissions speed can reach 70% of light transmission when it is under good conditions.



Improved Reliability

Unlike copper cables, fiber patch cord transmits more stably under temperature and humidity changes. In addition, fiber optic cables carry light, which won’t be affected by electromagnetic interference.



Wide Application

Fiber patch cords have different connectors, such as LC, SC, ST, FC, allow them can be connected to different devices.



Convenient To Use

Light weight and customized length, diameter, and connector make patch cord cables simple to use in different applications.
