Different Types Of Fiber Optic Patch Cable

From the wiki we all know that, Fiber Optic Patch Cord is really a fiber optic cable capped at either end with connectors that permit so that it is rapidly and conveniently connected to CATV, an optical switch, or other telecommunication equipment. Creating a thick layer of protection, it is utilized to connect the optical transmitter, receiver, as well as the terminal box. This is known as "interconnect-style cabling". Fiber patchcord is the best choice for CATV, Telecom Server, Subscriber Loop, Fiber-to-the-home, and native Area Network (LAN) applications.There is another kind of fiber cable assembly called Pigtail, it's a short optical fiber permanently attached with a resource, detector, or any other fiber optic device on one side and an optical connector in the other. Fiber optic pigtails tend to be for optical device connectivity.
Fiber Optic Patch Cords are designed to interconnect or cross connect fiber networks within structured cabling systems. The fiber patch cables types including common single-mode 9/125, OM1 62.5/125, OM2 50/125, 10G OM3/OM4 patch cables, armored patch cables, fiber optic pigtails, multi core patch cables, MPO/MTP patch cables along with other special patch cables. The fiber patchcord are all provided with the SC, ST, FC, LC, MU, MTRJ, E2000, APC/UPC terminations optical connector. Typical fiber connector interfaces are SC, ST, and LC in both multimode or single-mode applications. Fiberstore supply fiber optic patch cable with assorted connector and cable type, and we also can customize patch cables in any cut length.
Fiber optic patch cable types:
A fiber patch cords is made of 2 major parts: Optical connector and fiber optic cable.
1)By Optical connector:
LC fiber patch cable; FC patch cable; SC fiber cable; ST patch cable; MU fiber patch cable; MTRJ patch cord; E2000 patch cable; MPO fiber cable.
2)By fiber optic cable types
Single mode fiber optic cable: Generally in yellow color and employed for long transmission distance;
Multimode fiber optic cable: Usually the multimode patch cable are orange or gray and so are useful for short distance transmission.
3)By fiber optic cable Jacket
PVC: Non-Flame Retardant;
LSZH : Low smoke zero halogen, Flame Retardant
