FAQ

What is the difference between SC/APC and SC/UPC connectors?

SC/APC connectors have an angled end face (typically 8 degrees) which reduces back reflection, making them suitable for high-precision optical systems. SC/UPC connectors have a flat polished surface and are commonly used in general network connections.

Can the cable length be customized?

Yes, Orientalfiber 3mm Round Cable SC/APC- SC/UPC Patch Cords support customized lengths to match different installation requirements.

Is this patch cord suitable for indoor environments?

Yes, the LSZH jacket material makes it suitable for indoor use, especially in environments where fire safety and low smoke emission are required.

How many times can the connector be reused?

The connector supports more than 800 mating cycles under normal usage conditions, maintaining stable optical performance.
