The Instruction and Effect of Fiber Optic Patch Cable

As we know, Fiber optic patch cable is an essential equipment in fiber optics activities. Before we have a certain knowledge of all types of fiber patch cables, so this page will tell you something different, it mainly includes how to use the fiber patch cables correctly and its effects, you know, Proper use of optical patch cable can not only save a lot of time but also save of lots of cost.

Using patch cable what we should pay attention to: The wavelength of transceiver module at both ends of the fiber optic cords must be the same, it means that the both ends of fiber cable must be the same wavelength of transceiver module, the simple method to distinguish them is keep the same color. In common sense, short wavelength optical module use multimode fiber cables, just orange color and the long wavelength use single mode fiber cables, just yellow color. To keep the accuracy of data transmission. And when we use the fiber patch cables, we also should be careful, do not use excessive fiber bending and circling, this will increase the optical attenuation in the transmission process, then after we use it, we need to protect fiber optic connectors by protective sleeve from the dust or oil damaging the fiber coupling. Fiber patch cords consist of three types by termination style: SC to SC, fiber cable lc lc multimode. By category, we can know it as multimode fiber patch cable?and single mode fiber patch cable. Fiber patch cables length specifications are 0.5m, 1m, 2m, 3m, 5m,10m and so on. Press the cable outer sheath materials can be divided into generic type, ordinary flame retardant, low smoke zero halogen flame retardant type. According to the fiber rating of the building and the requirement of fiber resistant materials, integrated cabling system should take appropriate measures. In the flammable region and laying fiber cables in the building silos, we should use flame retardant cable and fiber optic cable, in large public spaces we should use flame retardant, low smoke, low toxicity cable or fiber optic cable, use the flame retardant cabling devices at Adjacent equipment and transmission.

Fiber Patch Cables are used from the device to fiber cabling link road as fiber jumper, it has a thick protective layer, usually connect the media converter and terminal box. Fiber Patch Cables (Product Recommondation: ST SC fiber patch cords) means that fiber cables has two sides connector and one side is pigtail cables, we can category it by the fiber optic connector as: FC fiber patch cord, SC fiber patch cord, LC fiber patch cord, MTRJ fiber patch cord, MTP fiber patch cord, MPO fiber patch cord, MU fiber patch cord, SMA fiber patch cord, FDDI fiber patch cord, E2000 fiber patch cord and other forms.
