GLOBALfiber SC/APC-SC/x/10/S is an OS2 simplex fiber patch cord for singlemode connections. It connects SC/APC to SC/UPC interfaces for equipment-to-panel or panel-to-panel patching. The yellow cable helps identify the fiber connection in the rack.
Connector compatibility
Which connectors does this patch cord use? SC/APC at end A and SC/UPC at end B. Match each end to the equipment or patch panel. UPC and APC must not be mated directly. Use singlemode optics specified for OS2 fiber. A passive patch cord does not establish the link speed or maximum transmission distance.

Installation requirements
Choose a cable length that follows the actual routing without tension. Clean and inspect connector end faces before connection, match the polish at both ends and observe the cable bend radius. For a BiDi connection, verify that both transceivers support a matching single-fiber optical link. Confirm the optical loss budget using the transceiver requirements and all cable connections.
Optical performance must be checked for the ordered connector assembly and complete link.
