Description
Metal Housing SC LC Patch cord is fiber optic patch cord with SC or LC connectors at both sides, but with metal head housing to protect the connectors inside, which is quite popular to use in pipeline or duct limited space, where the hole is less than 10.00mm diameter.
During field installation, you don’t need to take off the dust cap or add plastic housing after pull,only need to unscrew off the metal head, then finish installation, it contain the whole connectors inside of the metal head. Furthermore, there is pulling eye for the rope to pull at top of the head for rope to pull. The metal head is made of high quality and durability copper or zinc alloy material, which ensure the connector and fiber in good condition after pulling. And it is ideal solution for ftth upgrade network or access network.
Metal Housing SC LC Patch Cord Features
- Fast and convenient to operate, no need special tools
- Special design for limited space less than 10mm
- Unique crimping ensure high tensile strength
- Compatible with general SC LC interface
Metal Housing SC LC Patch Cord Application
- FTTH access network
- Fiber optic upgrade project
- Narrow space construction
- Pipeline construction
