LC to ST Single Mode Fiber Patch Cable - Duplex
High-performance single-mode fiber optic patch cable bridging modern and legacy equipment with LC/UPC connectors on one end and ST/UPC connectors on the other. The compact LC snap-in connector (Lucent Connector) is ideal for high-density installations and SFP module connections. In contrast, the ST bayonet-style connector (Straight Tip) provides secure twist-on/twist-off installation for legacy networking equipment. Perfect for connecting new technology to existing infrastructure.
Key Features
- High-speed single-mode transmission for long-distance, high-bandwidth applications
- UPC polish on both ends - ultra-flat ferrule surface maximizes signal transmission
- Dual connector design - LC snap-in for modern equipment, ST bayonet for legacy systems
- LC snap-in connector with compact 1.25mm form factor for high-density installations
- ST bayonet connector with simple twist-on/twist-off mechanism for secure installation
- Low insertion loss - ≤0.15 dB typical for optimal performance
- Tool-free installation on both ends - snap-in LC and twist-lock ST
- Plug-and-play compatible with SFP modules, XFP transceivers, and legacy networking equipment
- UL Listed in both Canada and the US (Intertek 4009521)
- RoHS compliant for environmental safety

Applications
Ideal for connecting modern networking equipment to legacy infrastructure, enterprise network upgrades, telecommunications systems, data center migrations, fiber channel networks, bridging SFP modules to ST-equipped devices, and any application requiring connectivity between contemporary LC ports and traditional ST connections.
Why LC to ST?
This hybrid cable is essential for network transitions and equipment upgrades, allowing seamless integration between newer LC-based switches, routers, and transceivers with older ST-equipped legacy devices, enabling phased infrastructure modernization without complete system replacement.
