A fiber patch cord, also known as a fiber optic patch cable or fiber jumper, is a type of patch cord specifically designed for fiber optic connections. It consists of two fiber optic connectors, such as LC, SC, or ST connectors, at each end of a fiber optic cable. Fiber patch cords are used to establish connections between fiber optic devices, such as switches, routers, and servers, in telecommunications networks, data centers, and other high-speed data transmission applications.
Fiber patch cords are available in different types, including single-mode and multimode, to support different transmission distances and bandwidth requirements. They are typically color-coded for easy identification, with yellow indicating single-mode and orange indicating multimode. The connectors on fiber patch cords are designed to ensure precise alignment and low insertion loss for efficient and reliable data transmission.
When selecting a fiber patch cord, it is important to consider factors such as connector type, cable length, and fiber type to ensure compatibility with the devices and network infrastructure being used.
