Armored SC/APC Fiber Optic Patch Cord,Fiber Flylead，Patch Lead & Jumper Cable | Single Mode OS2
Available in both simplex and duplex configurations with G.657.A2 bend-insensitive optical fiber, this armored SC/APC fiber optic patch cord provides a practical solution for FTTH drop connections, data center raceways, industrial automation networks, ODF patching and protected indoor fiber routing.Small-batch orders, custom lengths and repeat project supply are supported.
Key Technical Features and Advantages
Flexible SUS204/304 Stainless Steel Armor
Built with a micro-armored helical steel layer beneath the outer jacket, this patch cable provides up to 4000N crush resistance. The armored structure helps prevent cable damage caused by rodent bites, sharp edge bends and heavy foot traffic, reducing the risk of unexpected optical link failure in demanding installation environments.G.657.A2 Bend-Insensitive Fiber Core
Using G.657.A2 single mode fiber, this armored patch lead supports tight routing areas where standard fiber cables may suffer from bend-related signal loss. It is suitable for crowded enclosures, FTTH boxes, ODF trays, wall-mounted boxes and high-density equipment cabinets.Precision SC/APC Connectors for Low Reflection
Every armored jumper can be equipped with precision zirconia ceramic ferrules and 8-degree angled physical contact (APC) polish. SC/APC connectors help reduce back reflection and support stable optical transmission in FTTH, GPON, CATV, telecom and single mode OS2 network applications.Flame-Retardant LSZH / PVC Outer Jackets
Choose LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jackets for indoor building cabling areas where low-smoke and halogen-free materials are preferred, or PVC jackets for standard equipment rooms, cabinets and controlled industrial conduit routing.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why should I use an armored fiber patch cord instead of a standard unarmored jumper？
An armored fiber patch cord/Fiber Flylead/Patch Lead & Jumper includes an internal stainless steel spiral armor layer that helps protect the glass fiber from mechanical stress, crushing, sharp bends and rodent damage. It is recommended for unprotected conduits, factory floors, crowded server cabinets, ODF trays, terminal boxes and other areas where standard unarmored jumpers may be easily damaged.Does the stainless steel armor reduce the flexibility of the fiber patch cable?
The micro-armored structure is designed to keep the cable flexible while adding stronger mechanical protection. The SUS204/304 helical stainless steel armor allows the patch cable to route through cabinets, trays and equipment rooms more easily than heavy armored cables, while improving resistance to crushing, bending and pulling during installation and maintenance.
