Product Overview

The FOT LC-LC single-mode simplex patch cord is the workhorse interconnect of modern optical networks — a precision-terminated jumper built for the tight loss budgets of data centers, enterprise backbones and carrier transmission links. High-grade ceramic ferrules and tightly controlled polishing geometry deliver an insertion loss of ≤0.3 dB with return loss up to ≥60 dB on APC variants.

Manufactured and tested to IEC, TIA/EIA and Telcordia requirements, it ships in OS2 (9/125µm) single-mode as standard with OM3/OM4 multimode on request. PVC, LSZH, OFNP and OFNR jackets — with UL and CPR (Eca) fire ratings — cover everything from raised-floor patching to riser and plenum runs.

Every cord is 100% optically inspected and loss-tested before shipment, and OEM/ODM customization covers connector, fiber grade, jacket, diameter, length and color.

Frequently Asked Questions

What lengths are available for the LC-LC patch cord?

Standard lengths from 0.5 m to 50 m ship from stock; any custom length can be produced to order with the same tested performance.

What is the difference between UPC and APC polish?

UPC connectors have a domed end-face giving return loss ≥50 dB — ideal for most Ethernet and data links. APC connectors are polished at an 8° angle for ≥60 dB return loss, preferred for PON/CATV, RF-over-fiber and other reflection-sensitive systems.

Are the patch cords tested before shipment?

Every assembly undergoes 100% optical inspection plus insertion- and return-loss testing to IEC, TIA/EIA and Telcordia standards. Test reports are available on request.

Can length, color, jacket and connectors be customized?

Yes — length, jacket color and material (PVC / LSZH / OFNP / OFNR), cable diameter (0.9 / 2.0 / 3.0 mm) and any connector combination are OEM/ODM customizable.

What are your MOQ and lead time?

Standard configurations ship in 3–7 days with flexible MOQ. Custom OEM/ODM runs are quoted per project — send us your specs for a fast quotation.
