This is a commonly used fiber optic patch cable for Fiber To The Home (FTTH). Please note that there is no standard cable that is used and you must confirm the type of connector head when ordering. The larger connector tip is called SC, the smaller connector tip is called LC. Some cables can be SC to SC or LC to LC or SC to LC for FTTH. But there is no standard that is stuck to by installers. Please check your existing cable before ordering.
Connector colour type is also important, most of the time with FTTH (not always) the connector (LC or SC) uses a green connector type (APC). But sometimes they also use a blue connector (UPC). This is also important as it can cause signal loss if you dont choose the correct colour.
This cable is an LC (APC) to SC (APC).
The high quality Southern Elements fiber optic patch cables have very little attenuation when bent or twisted, this will make the installation and maintenance of your fiber optic cables more effective. This cable is supplied in a 3mm thickness which is better suited for home installations and can withstand more abuse than our other 2mm supplied cables. It is also suitable for installation in data centers, enterprise networks, telecom room, server farms, cloud storage networks, and any places fiber patch cables are needed. These are sometimes called fiber fly leads or fiber patch cords.
Our fiber optic patch cables are ideal for connecting 1G/10G/40G/100G/400G connections.
