2m LC-UPC to LC-UPC Fiber Optic Patch Cord

High-Performance 2m LC-UPC to LC-UPC Fiber Optic Patch Cord – Fast, Reliable Connectivity

Upgrade your fiber optic connections with this 2-meter LC-UPC to LC-UPC singlemode patch cord, designed for high-speed, low-loss data transmission in telecom, data centers, server rooms, and FTTH (Fiber to the Home) networks. Whether you’re building a reliable network infrastructure or optimizing existing systems, this high-quality patch cable ensures consistent performance, minimal signal loss, and durability in demanding environments.

This 2m duplex patch cord uses LC (Lucent Connector) UPC connectors on both ends, providing a secure, low-insertion-loss connection with excellent return loss characteristics. It’s engineered for singlemode fiber applications, making it ideal for long-distance and high-bandwidth data transmission across a wide range of networking equipment.

Compatible with a variety of optical transceivers, switches, ODFs, and patch panels, this cable is the perfect solution for anyone looking to enhance or maintain a professional-grade fiber network.

Built for Speed and Low Signal Loss

This patch cord is constructed using singlemode G.657A1 fiber with UPC (Ultra Physical Contact) polishing on both LC connectors. The UPC finish ensures a lower return loss compared to standard PC connectors, making this patch cable especially suitable for high-precision applications, such as:

• Data transmission in long-haul networks

• Telecommunication backbone infrastructure

• Enterprise-level switches and routers

• FTTH termination points

The 2m length offers the flexibility needed for device-to-device connections within racks, cabinets, or between adjacent equipment, while maintaining signal integrity and reducing cable slack.

Precision Engineering for Consistent Performance

The LC-UPC connectors on both ends are built to strict industry tolerances, ensuring excellent fit, alignment, and repeatability. Each patch cord undergoes individual insertion loss and return loss testing to guarantee compliance with IEC and TIA/EIA standards.

• Insertion loss: ≤ 0.3 dB (typical), ≤ 0.4 dB (max)

• Return loss: ≥ 50 dB

• Cable jacket: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen), ensuring safe usage in enclosed environments

• Connector material: Ceramic ferrule with blue housing for easy identification

Whether you’re connecting an SFP transceiver to a patch panel or a fiber media converter to a switch, this patch cord maintains superior optical performance, enabling minimal latency and data drop.

Rugged and Reliable Construction

Designed for durability, this patch cable features a tight-buffered 2.0mm LSZH jacket, resistant to bending, twisting, and abrasion. The jacket is also fire-retardant and environmentally safe, making it suitable for installation in plenum spaces, data closets, and controlled environments.

Additionally, the cable is compliant with RoHS and CE certifications, providing peace of mind for integrators and system builders. The strain relief boots at each connector ensure resistance to mechanical stress, increasing the lifespan of the cable in high-use environments.

Whether you’re managing mission-critical systems or setting up a small office network, this patch cord offers the performance and resilience needed for long-term use.

Plug-and-Play Compatibility

The LC duplex connectors on both ends ensure easy plug-and-play connectivity with a wide range of networking hardware. This includes:

• Fiber optic patch panels

• Optical Distribution Frames (ODFs)

• Media converters

• SFP/SFP+ transceivers

• High-speed switches, routers, and servers

With clearly labeled connectors and standard blue housing, installation is straightforward and minimizes setup errors. The 2-meter length is ideal for short-distance fiber links within cabinets or between nearby racks, avoiding unnecessary loops and improving airflow.

Ideal Applications

This 2m LC-UPC to LC-UPC fiber patch cord is suitable for:

• Telecom and ISP networks – Reliable connections for high-speed data services

• Enterprise data centers – Minimal insertion loss for core-to-distribution layer links

• FTTH deployments – Efficient point-to-point connections with excellent return loss

• Campus networks – High-performance fiber links between buildings or departments

• Test and lab environments – Consistent performance for network simulation or diagnostics

No matter the environment, this fiber optic patch cable provides consistent results and meets the standards expected in professional installations.
