How to use

Inspect connectors for cleanliness before installation and clean end faces if necessary using appropriate fiber cleaning tools. Plug the LC connector into the LC port and the SC connector into the SC adapter or device port ensuring secure, keyed alignment. Avoid sharp bends and maintain the minimum recommended bend radius for single-mode fiber during routing. When removing, pull from the connector body rather than the cable jacket to prevent damage.

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance, store and handle the patch cord in a clean environment, use dust caps when connectors are not mated, and follow standard fiber handling and safety procedures. Verify link performance with an optical power meter or OTDR after installation.
