Description
OEM SC-SC APC Fiber Cable
The OEM SC-SC APC OM3 duplex fiber optic patch cable facilitates high-speed data transmission in local area networks and data centers. This 2-meter assembly utilizes 50/125 micron laser-optimized multimode fiber to support 10 Gigabit Ethernet applications. The integration of Angled Physical Contact (APC) ferrules on a multimode core provides superior return loss characteristics compared to standard UPC finishes. This configuration minimizes back reflections that can degrade laser diode performance in high-sensitivity optical systems.
The SC connector design utilizes a push-pull mechanism. This style prevents rotational sensitivity and ensures consistent ferrule mating. Technicians prefer this interface for rapid deployment in high-density environments. Ceramic ferrules inside the connectors maintain sub-micron tolerances. This precision minimizes the air gap between fiber ends. Consequently, signal attenuation remains well within the 0.3 dB budget.
The OM3 glass features a laser-optimized profile. It effectively handles 850nm Vertical-Cavity Surface-Emitting Laser (VCSEL) sources. This optimization allows for higher modulation rates compared to standard OM1 or OM2 legacy fibers. The 2-meter length suits connections between switches and patch panels within the same cabinet. It eliminates excessive slack that can impede airflow and cooling efficiency.
The manufacturing process involves rigorous interferometric testing. Each connector undergoes inspection for end-face geometry and cleanliness. Technicians verify the 8-degree angle of the angled polish to ensure it meets industry return loss specifications. The jacket consists of Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) material. This material reduces the emission of toxic and corrosive gases during combustion. It meets safety standards for installation in poorly ventilated areas or plenum spaces. This visual distinction of green connectors helps prevent cross-contamination with UPC-based infrastructure.
Key Features
Angled Physical Contact Polish
The 8-degree angle on the SC connector ferrule ensures that back-reflected light is absorbed into the cladding rather than returning to the source.OM3 Performance Standards
- Supports 10Gbps up to 300 meters
- Supports 40/100Gbps up to 100 meters
Precision Ceramic Ferrules
The 2.5mm zirconia ferrules provide exact axial alignment to maintain low insertion loss during repeated mating cycles.Jacket Construction
- Low Smoke Zero Halogen material
- Compliant with fire safety regulations for plenum spaces

Samuel Omondi (verified owner) –
The cable itself is fine and the light loss is within range. However, the protective caps were a bit loose in the bag. Once cleaned and plugged in, it worked without issues. Good for the price.
Fatma Hassan (verified owner) –
We’ve been upgrading our server room to OM3 and these 2m cords are just the right length to keep things tidy. No issues with the SC-APC polishing, the return loss is excellent. For an OEM brand, the build quality is actually better than some expensive ones I’ve bought in town before.
Beatrice Achieng (verified owner) –
These OEM cables are a life saver for the budget. Used them to link our core switches and the 10G speeds are stable. Only wish they had more color options for cable management, but performance is top notch.
Evans Kiptoo (verified owner) –
Solid fiber jumpers. Picked them up for a client project in CBD. They are flexible enough for tight bends in the cabinet. Will be ordering more soon.
Kelvin Mwangi (verified owner) –
Good quality patch cords. The APC connectors fit perfectly into our patch panel without any signal loss. Delivery to our office in Upper Hill was very fast.
Josphat Njuguna (verified owner) –
Item as described. Working well for our 2m runs.
