The SC AP/UPC FTTH Drop Cable Singlemode Simplex Butterfly Flat Indoor Patch Cord is a specialized type of optical fiber patch cord used primarily in Fiber to the Home (FTTH) projects. Here's a breakdown of its components and features:
SC APC/UPC:
This refers to the type of connectors and the polishing style used on the fiber ends.
SC (Subscriber Connector):
A popular type of fiber optic connector with a push-pull latching mechanism, ensuring quick and stable connection.
APC (Angled Physical Contact) and UPC (Ultra Physical Contact):
These terms describe the polish on the fiber connectors. APC connectors have an 8-degree angled polish, reducing back reflection, which is crucial in high bandwidth applications. UPC connectors have a dome-shaped end-face, providing lower back reflection than flat polish connectors but higher than APC.
FTTH (Fiber to the Home):
This indicates that the cable is designed for installation in FTTH systems, where fiber optic lines are run directly to individual homes or buildings.
Drop Cable Singlemode Simplex:
Drop Cable:
A type of cable used to connect the main fiber optic line to individual homes or buildings. It is typically used for the "last mile" of installation in FTTH networks.
Singlemode:
Refers to the type of optical fiber. Singlemode fibers allow only one mode of light to propagate, making them suitable for high-speed and long-distance communication.
Simplex:
Indicates a single fiber within the cable, as opposed to duplex, which would have two fibers.
Butterfly Flat Indoor Design:
This describes the physical construction of the cable. "Butterfly flat" suggests a flat, thin profile, which is easier to install in indoor environments, particularly for running along baseboards, within walls, or in tight spaces.
FRP/KFRP Strength Members:
Fiber Reinforce Plastic or Kevlar Fiber Reinforce Plastic is used as strength members to provide mechanical strength and protection to the fiber optic within the cable.
LSZH Sheath:
LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) sheathing is used for the outer part of the cable, which is safer in terms of fire hazard as it emits low smoke and no halogen when exposed to high temperatures.
Customizable Connectors:
The ability for customers to specify the type of connectors they need based on their specific requirements.
In summary, the SC APC UPC FTTH Drop Cable Singlemode Simplex Butterfly Flat Indoor Patch Cord is a robust, high-performance optical fiber cable designed for last-mile connectivity in FTTH installations. It's characterized by its singlemode fiber, specialized connectors with precise polishing, flat and indoor-friendly design, reinforced strength, and safety-focused sheathing.
Connector Standards
SC Connectors:
Conform to multiple standards including TIA/EIA, FOCIS3, GR-326, NTT-SC, IEC61754-4, and JIS C5973. These standards ensure quality, performance, and interoperability in fiber optic communications.
LC Connectors:
Also adhere to various standards like TIA/EIA, FOCIS10, GR-326, EIA/TIA-604-10, IEC61754-20, and JIS C5973, which guarantee similar levels of reliability and efficiency.
