Καλώδιο patch LC/UPC-LC/UPC Single Mode Extralink G.652D 3mm 3m (simplex)

Extralink LC/UPC–LC/UPC single-mode patchcord with G.652D fiber and a 3 mm jacket, 3 m long, provides a straightforward fiber optic link for FTTH, telecom and data center environments. The cable is terminated on both ends with LC/UPC connectors to ensure reliable, low-loss mating with LC ports on transceivers, patch panels, switches and optical network units. Designed for single-mode applications, the G.652D fiber supports common telecom wavelengths and is suitable for high-speed links up to 10 Gbps where single-mode performance is required.

Advantages

The patchcord combines a compact 3 mm jacket with precise LC/UPC terminations to offer low insertion loss and good return loss characteristics. G.652D fiber construction gives stable single-mode transmission and compatibility with standard 1310 nm and other telecom wavelengths. Its 3 m length is suitable for short interconnects within racks, between equipment and in subscriber premises, while the LC connector format saves panel space and simplifies routing in dense installations.

How to use

Identify the LC ports on the equipment or patch panel where the patchcord will be installed, ensuring connectors are clean and free of dust. Align the LC/UPC connectors with the duplex or simplex adapters and insert until a click confirms secure engagement; do not force connectors. Route the cable avoiding sharp bends below the minimum bending radius and secure with cable management to prevent strain on the connectors. For temporary testing, connect one end to the transceiver or test instrument and the other to the device under test, then remove the patchcord by depressing the LC latch and withdrawing the connector.

Recommendations

Regularly inspect and clean connector endfaces with appropriate optical cleaning tools before mating to maintain low insertion loss. Avoid tight coiling and sharp bends; maintain at least the specified 30 mm bending radius. Use dust caps when the patchcord is not in use to protect the ferrule and UPC polish. For permanent installations, document connector locations and label both ends to simplify maintenance.
