Fiber optic patchcord RBLINE PC-2FC/2SC singlemode 1 m

RBLINE PC-2FC/2SC singlemode 1 m fiber optic patchcord is a single-mode jumper with an FC connector on one end and an SC connector on the other. It is designed to provide a compact, low-loss connection between devices that use FC and SC ports, enabling reliable optical signal transmission in point-to-point links and patch panels. The 1 metre length balances flexibility and manageability for rack-mounted and bench-top installations.

Advantages

The patchcord uses singlemode fiber optimized for long-distance, low-attenuation signal transfer and maintains consistent insertion loss and return loss characteristics appropriate for telecom and data applications. Its mixed-connector configuration (FC to SC) allows direct mating between equipment with different port types without adapter use. The 1 m length minimizes excess slack while providing sufficient reach for typical rack and cabinet layouts.

Suitable for

• Interconnecting telecommunications equipment with FC and SC ports
• Fiber patch panels and distribution frames in data centers
• Lab testing and measurement setups requiring singlemode links
• Telecom racks and optical network termination points

Key specifications

• Fiber type: singlemode (SM)
• Connector A: FC (female/male as specified by equipment)
• Connector B: SC
• Length: 1 m
• Cable jacket: standard fiber jacket for indoor use
• Polish type: UPC or APC depending on variant (check product label)

How to use

Before installation, inspect connectors for dust or damage and clean with appropriate fiber cleaning tools. Insert the FC end into the FC receptacle and the SC end into the SC adapter or port until secure; ensure connector keys and threads (for FC) are properly aligned and tightened without over-torquing. Route the cable to avoid tight bends and mechanical strain; maintain the minimum bend radius recommended for singlemode fiber. After connection, verify link integrity with an optical power meter or light source and inspect for acceptable insertion loss.

Usage recommendations

Store unused ends with protective dust caps in place and avoid stepping on or crushing the cable. For optimal performance, use appropriate cleaning procedures before each connection and avoid repeated mating cycles beyond connector specifications.
