FOC Patch Cord Details
There are connector at both sides of the FOC patch cord, one end is SC/APC connector with white 3mm loose tube about 30cm. The cable cutting place from 5mm to 3mm is protected a section of heat shrinkable tubing.
The other end of the fiber optic cable patch cord is Supertap (Optitap compatible) waterproof plug, internal with built-in SC connector. Hardened connector with anti-loose dust cap and 5mm boot for FTTA outdoor cable.
The waterproof plug is special design and you can open and close it as per below instructions.
