What is the Lightwave LW-PC-LCU-LCU-DX-SM-3M?
It is a 3-meter duplex single-mode fiber-optic patch cord with LC UPC connectors at both ends.
What type of fiber does it use?
It uses single-mode fiber and is intended for optical networking applications requiring single-mode connectivity.
What connectors does the patch cord have?
It has LC UPC connectors on both ends.
How long is the cable?
The cable is 3 meters long, making it suitable for equipment connections where a 1-meter patch cord may be too short.
Is the cable duplex?
Yes. The DX designation indicates a duplex configuration with two fiber paths.
What does LSZH mean?
LSZH means Low Smoke Zero Halogen. The jacket is designed to produce low smoke and no halogen-based corrosive gases when exposed to fire.
Can it be used with SFP or SFP+ modules?
Yes, provided the modules have compatible LC single-mode interfaces and the optical specifications of the transceivers match the fiber link.
Can it be used in a data center?
Yes. Its LC connectors, duplex configuration and 3-meter length make it suitable for appropriate data-center rack and fiber distribution connections.
Is it suitable for FTTH networks?
Yes. It can be used in FTTH and FTTx infrastructure where compatible LC single-mode interfaces are required.
What is the difference between LC UPC and LC APC?
LC UPC uses a standard ultra-physical-contact polish, while LC APC uses an angled physical-contact polish. They should not be treated as interchangeable connector types for every application.
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
| LC UPC connectors on both ends | Requires compatible LC interfaces |
| Single-mode fiber | Not intended for multimode-only equipment |
| Duplex configuration | UPC and APC connectors should not be mixed indiscriminately |
| 3-meter length | May be longer than necessary for some rack connections |
| LSZH jacket | Requires careful handling to prevent connector contamination |
| Suitable for telecom and enterprise networks | Actual transmission distance depends on connected optical equipment |
| Compact LC connector design | Fiber connectors require proper cleaning and handling |
