Patchkabel Extralink SC/UPC–SC/UPC Singlemode Simplex 900 µm, 1,5 m

Extralink Patchcord SC/UPC–SC/UPC Singlemode Simplex 900µm, 1.5 m is a singlemode fiber jumper with SC/UPC terminations on both ends and a 900 µm FTTH-style jacket. Built on G.652D fibre, the 1.5 m cable provides a compact, colour-coded yellow singlemode connection suited for linking optical equipment, patch panels and ONT/router ports where SC terminations and slim FTTH cabling are required.

Advantages

The patchcord offers low insertion loss and stable optical parameters for repeatable measurements and reliable data transfer. Its 900 µm jacket and small overall diameter make it suitable for dense cabling environments and connectorised FTTH installations. Connectors are polished to UPC specification for improved back-reflection performance, and the construction uses durable jacket materials to withstand standard installation handling and temperature variations.

Suitable for

• Interconnection between OLT, ONT/ONU and customer premises equipment
• Patch panels and distribution frames in singlemode networks
• FTTH drop and internal fibre routing where compact 900 µm cabling is required
• Laboratory and measurement setups requiring repeatable singlemode connections

Key specifications

• Fibre type: ITU-T G.652.D singlemode
• Connector type: SC/UPC on both ends (simplex)
• Cable configuration: simplex, single-fibre
• Cladding/jacket diameter: 900 µm (FTTH-style loose tube/mini-jacket)
• Length: 1.5 m
• Typical colour: yellow (singlemode standard)
• Jacket material: nylon/PVC combination for flexibility and abrasion resistance
• Polish type: UPC (ultra physical contact) for reduced back-reflection
• Operational temperature range: suitable for standard indoor and FTTH environments

How to use

Connect one SC/UPC connector to the source device and the other to the receiving device or patch panel port, ensuring connectors are clean and free of dust before mating. Align and insert the SC connectors until they click into place; avoid bending the cable below its minimum bend radius and secure the jumper to prevent strain on the connectors. For testing and measurement, use appropriate launch and receive cables and follow instrument manufacturer procedures to obtain repeatable attenuation and loss values.

Recommendations

Before installation, inspect and, if necessary, clean connector end faces with approved fibre cleaning tools. Route the 900 µm patchcord through cable management fittings designed for FTTH-style cables and avoid tight bends or kinks. Store unused jumpers in protective sleeves when not connected. For outdoor or harsh-environment use, select products specified for those conditions rather than this indoor FTTH-style jumper.
