Detailed Display of E2000 APC Patch Cord
The cable is bundled neatly with black ties, ensuring manageability and preventing tangling. The APC (Angled Physical Contact) polish on the connectors ensures low back reflection, making it ideal for high-performance optical networks. It is typically used in fiber optic communication systems, data centers, and telecommunications networks where high reliability and low loss are critical

The E2000 APC connectors is identifiable by their bright green housing. One end has a male connector with a latch, and the other is a female connector, both designed for precise alignment and low insertion loss. The brand could be customized on the connector, indicating the manufacturer.

The patch cord uses a blue optical fiber cable. The cable is labeled with “OPTICAL FIBER CABLE” and specifications like “G657A1”, “SM”, “9/125”, and “2.0mm”, signifying it is a single-mode (SM) fiber with a 9/125μm core/cladding diameter, G657A1 bend-insensitive fiber type, and a 2.0mm outer diameter jacket, suitable for robust and flexible installations.
