Extralink SC/APC-SC/APC optical patch cable, 30 meters, white – singlemode simplex connection
The Extralink SC/APC-SC/APC optical patch cable is a highly reliable, singlemode (singlemode) connector cable,
amely an ideal choice for FTTH, FTTx, data center, and professional network applications. The 30-meter long,
white, 3 mm diameter LSOH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket cable provides a safe, durable, and stable
optical connection between endpoints.
Main features and benefits
- SC/APC-SC/APC connector – low return loss, stable optical connection
- Singlemode (SM) simplex design – long-range, high-bandwidth data transmission
- Optical fiber compliant with G.657A2 standard – small bending radius, flexible installation
- LSOH jacket – low smoke emission, halogen-free, safe for indoor use
- 30 m length – ideal for cabling in homes, offices, and server rooms
- 3 mm cable diameter – mechanically strong yet flexible design
- White color – aesthetic, can be discreetly routed along walls or in cable channels
Applications
This singlemode optical patch cable is an ideal choice in any situation where high-speed, reliable
and low-loss optical connection is required. Typical applications include:
- FTTH (Fiber to the Home) subscriber connections
- Connection between home and office routers, ONT, and optical sockets
- Optical connection between data center and server racks
- Telecommunications and industrial optical networks
- Optical backbone network for video surveillance systems
G.657A2 singlemode optical fiber – small bending radius, high reliability
The fiber used in the cable is specifically optimized for small bending radius.
As a result, the patch cable:
- is less sensitive to sharp bends and tensile stress
- can be routed more easily in tight cable channels or along walls
- maintains low attenuation values even in less favorable arrangements
This is particularly important in environments where cabling is restricted to tight spaces or where optical cables need to be frequently relocated or organized, such as around server racks and patch panels.
SC/APC connectors – precise, stable optical alignment
Both ends feature green SC/APC connectors, which use an 8° angled polish (Angled Physical Contact).
The advantages include:
- very low return loss (reduced reflection)
- stable, low-loss connection over the long term
- compatibility with most SC/APC sockets, ODFs, and optical devices
This is especially important for high-speed, sensitive optical links, such as in GPON, EPON, or active Ethernet-based networks, where signal quality directly affects transmission speed and service stability.
LSOH jacket – a safe choice for indoor networks
The LSOH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) outer jacket in case of fire:
- contributes to better visibility with reduced smoke emission
- does not emit corrosive, caustic halogen gases
- improves the building's safety profile and reduces damage
This type of cable is specifically recommended in office buildings, residential buildings, public institutions, server rooms,
and any environment where fire safety and protection of people are important.
Easy installation and use
Thanks to the 3 mm diameter, flexible jacket and the factory-terminated SC/APC connectors, the cable is ready for immediate use. No welding or connector assembly is required – just connect it to the appropriate optical ports.
- Connect one end to the optical socket, ODF, or media converter.
- Connect the other end to the router, ONT, or other optical device's SC/APC input.
- Ensure that the bending radius is not too small to avoid unnecessary attenuation.
- Organize the cable in a cable channel or with cable ties for a clean, clear installation.
Why is this optical patch cable an ideal choice?
- Provides reliable, stable optical connectivity over longer distances
- Low signal loss and high transmission speed in singlemode networks
- Compact, aesthetic design with a white jacket that fits modern interiors
- Professional quality connectors and G.657A2 fiber designed for high demands
- Safe, LSOH jacket solution for office and residential use
