Fiber Optic Patch Cords

Fiber optic patchcord is one of most commonly used components in fiber opticnetwork.Fiber optic patch cords sometimes is also called fiber opticjumper or fiber optic patch cables.Generally there are two types offiber optic patch cords:single mode fiber optic patch cords and multimode fiber optic patch cords.Here the word mode means the transmitting mode of the fiber optic light in the fiber optic cable core. usually single mode fiber optic patch cord are with 9/125 fiber glass and is yellow jacket color, multi mode fiber optic patch cord are with 50/125 or 62.5/125 fiber glass and is orange color.

Fiber optic patchcord are used for linking the equipment and components in the fiberoptic network ,they are with various kinds of fiber optic connectortypes.The fiber optic patch cord types are classified by the fiber optic connector types,for example, we name LC fiber optic patch cord because this cable is with LC fiber optic connectors.There are also E2000 fiber optic patch cord, SC fiber optic patch cord,ST fiber optic patch cord, FC fiber optic jumper, MU fiber optic jumper,MTRJfiber optic jumper, SMA fiber optic jumper, MPO fiber patch cable,DINfiber patch cable, FDDI fiber patch cable, etc; there are PC,UPC,APCtype fiber patch cord,they are different because of the polish of fiberconnectors.

Fiber optic patch cord are with various kinds of cables, PVC,Riser,Plenum, OFNR, OFNP, LSZH (LSOH), 10 Gig Aqua, there are simplexfiber optic patch cord and duplex fiber optic patch cord and multi fibercable assemblies,and there are ribbon fan out fiber cable assembliesand bundle fiber optic cable assemblies.Typical fiber optic patch cordcable diameter can be 0.9mm,2mm,or 3mm.
