LC UPC to SC APC Duplex OS2 Single-mode Fiber Patch Cable

LC/UPC to SC/APC Duplex Patch Cable – OS2 Single-Mode 9/125 µm

This precision-built duplex jumper will link high-density switch ports to APC-terminated panels or FTTH gear. One end features a compact LC connector with Ultra-Physical Contact (UPC) polish. At the same time, the other terminates in a push-pull SC connector with an 8-degree Angled Physical Contact (APC) polish—perfect for transitioning between flat and angled interfaces while minimizing loss and reflectance.

Key Features

• OS2 single-mode fiber (9/125 µm): Engineered for long-reach, high-bandwidth applications
• Duplex construction: Two fibers in one jacket for simultaneous Tx/Rx channels
• LC snap-fit plug: Saves panel space and mates seamlessly with SFP/SFP+ or XFP transceiver cages
• SC APC push-pull plug: Datacom/FTTH standard with secure latch and low back-reflection
• Mixed-polish design: UPC on the LC side, APC on the SC side for optimal performance across dissimilar ports
• Factory-tested: Every assembly is interferometer-verified and certified for insertion and return loss.
• Compliant & safe: UL listed (US/Canada) and RoHS-conformant

Typical Uses

• Patching SFP optics to APC-terminated OLT/ODF shelves
• Connecting DWDM line cards to fiber splitters
• Installations requiring a UPC-to-APC interface without sacrificing density or signal quality
