LC to LC Fiber Patch Cord
LC LC patch cord comes in two types: simplex and duplex. The simplex LC LC patch cord is used for single channel connections, while duplex LC LC patch cord is used for dual channel connections to ensure stable signal transmission and reception.
For single-mode connections, conventional LC LC patch cord use G652D or G657 fiber optic cable and pre-terminate the LCUPC endface with a blue housing or LCAPC with a green housing. For multimode connections, LC LC patch cord use OM2, OM3, or OM4 fiber optic cable and pre-terminate the LCUPC endface with a beige, aqua green, or rose red housing, depending on the application.
Bonelinks has a rigorous control process to ensure the best light reflection and signal transmission, with strict testing of fiber attenuation values, cable tension, and sheath fire rating. Test results are recorded and printed on the patch cord packaging for easy reference during installation. Custom printing and color options for the cable jacket are also available to meet brand recognition requirements.
