Cabo de patch Extralink SC/APC–SC/APC monomodo G.657.A2 3 mm simplex LSOH 10 m, branco

Extralink SC/APC–SC/APC singlemode patchcord, 10 m, with G.657.A2 fiber and 3 mm simplex LSOH jacket is designed for indoor optical connections. The cable features SC/APC connectors on both ends, bend-insensitive singlemode fiber for FTTH deployments, and a low-smoke, zero-halogen outer sheath suitable for installations in confined or public spaces. This white patchcord is intended for reliable interconnection between optical equipment, splice panels and active devices where low-loss, stable singlemode performance is required.

Advantages

The G.657.A2 fiber core provides improved bend resistance compared with standard singlemode fibers, reducing signal loss in tight routing and around indoor fixtures. SC/APC connectors ensure low back reflection and consistent mating with APC ports. The 3 mm simplex construction balances flexibility and mechanical protection, while the LSOH jacket limits smoke and halogen emissions in case of fire, meeting safety requirements for indoor environments.

Suitable for

• FTTH outlet to ONT/ONU connections in residential and multi-dwelling installations
• Patch panels and distribution frames inside telecom rooms and data cabinets
• Interconnects between optical transceivers, media converters, and switches
• Indoor fiber routing where tight bends or constrained cable paths are present

Key specifications

• Fiber type: singlemode G.657.A2 (bend-insensitive)
• Connector type: SC/APC to SC/APC, simplex
• Cable diameter: 3 mm
• Jacket material: LSOH (low smoke, zero halogen)
• Length: 10 m
• Color: white

How to use

Route the patchcord between the required connection points without sharp bends; maintain bend radii recommended for G.657.A2 fiber to preserve optical performance. Insert each SC/APC connector into its mating APC port until the connector clicks or seats securely. Ensure connectors are clean before mating to prevent contamination and increased insertion loss. When not in use, protect connector endfaces with dust caps and secure the cable to prevent strain on the connectors.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, clean connectors with appropriate fiber cleaning tools before installation and avoid bending the cable below its minimum bend radius. Use the patchcord for indoor FTTH terminations and cabinet-to-equipment links; avoid outdoor exposure and direct burial unless additional armoring or outdoor-rated jacket is provided.
