Polarization-Maintaining FC/APC Fiber Optic Patch Cables
SM Patch Cables for Signal Transmission from 350 nm to 2200 nm
Continuously Adjustable before Superglue Locked
FC-style Connector
Description
These polarization-maintaining fiber optic patch cables are terminated on both ends with narrow key, ceramic-ferrule FC/APC connectors. Available from stock, these cables feature a high-quality polish, which leads to a typical return loss of 60dB. Assembled in our facility, each cable is individually tested to ensure its extinction ratio and insertion loss at fiber-to-fiber junctions.
Each patch cable includes two protective caps that shield the ferrule ends from dust and other hazards.
Additional Plastic Fiber Caps and Metal Threaded Fiber Caps for FC/APC-terminated ends are also sold separately. Mating sleeves/Adapters are also available to connect fibers with matching connectors. These mating sleeves minimize back reflections and ensure proper alignment of fiber cores.
If you cannot find the appropriate stock patch cable your application requires, custom patch cables are available. PM patch cables are available in various lengths and tubing.
Tips:
For use with Polarization-Maintaining Fiber, we usually offer the FC style connector (SC, LC & ST options). This FC-style connector's key is continuously adjustable, allowing precise alignment with the axis of the PM fiber. Once the key is aligned, it can be locked into place by adding a drop of superglue in the slot near the back of the connector.
