What is the Lightwave LW-PC-SCU-SCU-DX-SM-3M Fiber Patch Cord?
It is a 3-meter duplex single-mode fiber-optic patch cord with SC UPC connectors on both ends.
What type of fiber does it use?
It uses single-mode fiber, typically associated with OS2 9/125μm fiber construction.
What connectors does the cable have?
It has SC UPC connectors at both ends.
What does DX mean on the model number?
DX indicates that the patch cord uses a duplex configuration with two fiber paths.
How long is the patch cord?
The cable is 3 meters long, making it useful for connections between network equipment and fiber distribution panels where additional cable length is required.
What does UPC mean?
UPC means Ultra Physical Contact, referring to the polishing style of the fiber connector end face.
Is it suitable for single-mode fiber networks?
Yes. The cable is designed for single-mode fiber applications.
Can it be used for FTTH?
Yes. It can be used in FTTH and FTTx installations where compatible SC single-mode interfaces are required.
Can it connect to an SFP or SFP+ module?
It can be used with compatible optical transceivers when the transceiver or its adapter provides an SC single-mode interface. Many modern SFP and SFP+ modules instead use LC interfaces, so connector compatibility should be checked before installation.
What is the difference between SC UPC and SC APC?
SC UPC uses a straight physical-contact polish, while SC APC uses an angled physical-contact polish. They should be matched correctly according to the requirements of the optical system.
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
| SC UPC connectors on both ends | Requires compatible SC interfaces |
| Single-mode fiber construction | Not suitable for multimode-only equipment |
| Duplex configuration | UPC and APC connectors should not be mixed without checking compatibility |
| 3-meter length | May be longer than necessary for very short rack connections |
| LSZH jacket | Requires proper connector cleaning and handling |
| Suitable for FTTH and telecom applications | Actual transmission performance depends on connected equipment |
| Useful for structured fiber cabling | SC connectors are larger than LC connectors |
