ITECH Blue SC/SC Patch Cord Duplex Cable, SC to SC

DescriptionAn “ITECH Blue SC/SC Patch Cord Cable” refers to a fiber-optic patch cord cable terminated with SC connectors on both ends — typically used to connect fiber equipment like ONTs, OLTs, media converters, patch panels, and network switches in fiber optic networks.�� Fiber Optic Patch Cord – SC to SCA fiber patch cord is a pre-terminated optical fiber cable with connectors on each end, designed for quick connections in telecommunication and data networks.Connector Type: SC (Standard Connector) on both ends → SC/SCCommon Uses:• FTTH broadband connections (e.g., OLT → ONU)• Telecom and ISP equipment• Data centers and LAN/WAN fiber links• Patch panels and distribution framesSC connectors are widely used because they snap in securely with a push-pull mechanism and are common in many fiber installations.�� Typical SC/SC Patch Cord Variations�� Single-Mode SC/SC Patch CordsDesigned for longer distances and high-speed networks (e.g., 1310 / 1550 nm applications).Often have UPC (Ultra Physical Contact) polish for low insertion loss and reliable transmission.Common lengths: 0.5 m, 1 m, 3 m, up to 20 m or more depending on installation needs.Example:A 1 m SC-SC UPC patch cord is widely used for short indoor fiber connections.A longer 20 m SC-SC cable can be used to connect optical devices across longer racks or rooms.�� Multimode SC/SC Patch CordsUsed in short-range environments like data centers and local networks. May support high-bandwidth multimode fiber like OM3.Color coding (e.g., aqua for OM3) often indicates fiber type.�� Typical SpecificationsFeatureTypicalConnector EndsSC male – SC male (push-pull type)Fiber ModeSingle-mode (9/125 µm) or multimode (50/125 µm)Polish TypesUPC or APC (most often UPC for SC/SC jumpers)Insertion LossLow (dependent on length and quality)ApplicationsFTTH, OLT/ONU links, patch panels, media converters�� How It’s UsedConnect fiber devices: SC/SC patch cords link two fiber ports with matching SC connectors.Snap-in connectors: SC connectors have a simple push-pull latching design for secure connections.Minimal signal loss: UPC polished SC/SC cords provide stable performance with minimal reflection.�� Note: If you see an adapter or port using SC/APC (angled polish) or SC/UPC (flat polish), make sure the patch cable matches the connector type for best performance (e.g., SC/UPC to SC/UPC). Mixing APC and UPC may work physically but can degrade optical performance.�� SummaryAn ITECH Blue SC/SC Patch Cable is a fiber-optic jumper cable with SC connectors on both ends. It’s used for connecting fiber equipment in networks, providing high-speed, low-loss optical connectivity between devices like ONTs, optical switches, media converters, and patch panels.
