Latiguillo de fibra óptica Extralink SC/APC–SC/APC, multimodo OM3, dúplex, cubierta 3 mm, 5 m

Extralink multimode fiber patchcord with SC/APC connectors on both ends provides a duplex OM3 link in a 3 mm jacket over a 5 m length. Designed for short-range optical connections, this SC/APC–SC/APC patchcord offers APC polished ferrules and OM3 multimode fiber performance suitable for data center interconnects, patch panels and FTTH premises where duplex multimode links and low-loss angled physical contact are required.

Advantages

The patchcord combines OM3 multimode performance with SC/APC connectors to reduce back-reflection and maintain stable signal quality in short-range multimode applications. A 3 mm outer jacket gives the cable flexibility and mechanical protection for routing in racks and conduits while the duplex termination simplifies pair connections. The 5 m length is convenient for equipment-to-equipment links without excess slack.

Key specifications

How to use

Route the duplex cable between optical ports ensuring the green APC connectors are aligned with SC receptacles. Insert each SC/APC connector until it clicks into the adapter or device port; confirm secure seating and correct transmit/receive pairing. Avoid tight bends and secure the cable to prevent strain on the connectors. For installations in patch panels, follow the panel’s recommended bend radius and label each duplex leg for easy identification.

Recommendations

Handle connectors by the housing and keep protective dust caps on until final mating. Clean connector endfaces with appropriate fiber cleaning tools before connection to ensure low insertion loss. Maintain a minimum bend radius consistent with a 3 mm jacketed multimode cable to prevent increased attenuation.
