Netsys NS-SCAPC-LCAPC-SX-SM-3M – Patch Cord SC-LC APC Single Mode Simplex 3M
Overview:
• The Netsys NS-SCAPC-LCAPC-SX-SM-3M is a single mode simplex fiber optic patch cord designed for professional optical connections between different fiber interface types.
• Built with SC APC to LC APC connectors and 9/125µm single mode optical fiber to support stable long-distance optical transmission.
• The hybrid connector design makes it suitable for connecting SC-based ODF units, fiber patch panels, and distribution points with LC-based switches, SFP modules, media converters, and active network equipment.
• The simplex structure supports one-way optical communication, making it suitable for dedicated fiber links, equipment connections, telecom rooms, CCTV fiber backbone, and low-current infrastructure projects.
• Each patch cord is factory tested for insertion loss and return loss to ensure stable transmission performance according to ANSI/TIA-568-C.3 standards.
