DescriptionA 3 Meter SC/SC Patch Cord Cable is a fiber-optic jumper/cable with SC connectors on both ends used to connect fiber-optic network equipment (like ONUs, OLTs, media converters, patch panels, etc.). It’s commonly used in broadband, data, telecom and LAN networks.�� What It Is�� Connector type: SC male to SC male – push-pull square connectors on both ends.�� Length: 3 meters (≈ 9.84 ft) – good for short-to-medium indoor connections.�� Function: Carries optical signals between ports on devices, terminated neatly without splicing.�� Typical Specifications (depending on fiber type)Fiber Type Options:Single-mode (9/125 µm) – used for longer distances and telecom/FTTH connections.Multimode (50/125 µm or 62.5/125 µm) – used in data centers and shorter LAN connections.Common Performance Specs:Insertion loss: ~≤0.3 dB – low signal loss.Return loss: ≥30 dB or higher – high-quality signal reflection control.Jacket type: PVC or LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) – safer in indoor installations.Polish: Usually UPC (Ultra Physical Contact) – flat polished end for good performance.�� Typical Uses✔ FTTH broadband connections (fiber internet)✔ Patch panels & racks in offices/data centers✔ Connecting optical devices like switches, ONT/ONU and media converters✔ Gigabit – 10 Gb/s Ethernet links depending on fiber type�� Notes Before Buying�� Make sure you choose the right fiber type:Single-mode for long distance or telecom networks (yellow jacket).Multimode for LAN/data center short-distance (orange/aqua jacket).�� Connector polish type (UPC/APC) must match the equipment ports – mismatches can degrade signal.�� In SummaryA 3 m SC/SC fiber patch cord is a pre-terminted fiber optic cable with SC connectors on both ends. It’s ideal for linking fiber-enabled equipment in networks — including FTTH, telecom, data centers, and LAN infrastructure — with low loss and reliable signal.
