Product Overview

LC/PC-LC/PC 62.5/125 MM Duplex Patchcord is part of the fiber optic patchcord range built by Ever Expresslink Limited in Ningbo, China. It is built on the LC (Lucent Connector) interface.

We offer LC fiber cables and LC fiber patch, including single mode 9/125 and multimode 50/125, multimode 62.5/125, LC-LC, LC-SC, LC-ST, LC-MU, LC-MTRJ, LC-MPO, LC-E2000, LC-FC. Other types also available for custom design. Excellent quality and fast delivery.

The LC fiber cable is with a small form factor (SFF) connector and is ideal for high density applications. The LC fiber patch connector has a zirconia ceramic ferrule measuring 1.25mm O.D. with either a PC or APC endface, and provides optimum insertion and return loss. The LC fiber patch cable connector is used on small diameter mini-cordage (1.6mm/2.0mm) as well as 3.0mm cable. LC fiber cable connectors are available in cable assembled or one piece connectors. The LC fiber optic assemblies family is Telcordia, ANSI/EIA/TIA and IEC compliant.

Small form-factor transceivers are built around it, so LC is what a data-center or an access switch presents to you whether you wanted it or not. The latch is small and breaks if the cord is pulled sideways out of a dense panel. Use a boot or a push-pull tab on panels packed to 48 ports and above.

62.5/125 µm multimode is the older OM1 core size, still present in large installed building backbones. Specify it when you are patching into an existing 62.5/125 plant and core mismatch would cost you more than the cord does.

PC is the baseline physical-contact polish, with a lighter dome than UPC. It appears on older plant and on multimode links where return loss is not the limiting factor.

Key Benefits

Supplied as LC/PC-LC/PC 62.5/125 MM Duplex Patchcord, so the part you receive matches the designation you ordered against
PC end face: It appears on older plant and on multimode links where return loss is not the limiting factor.
Multimode 62.5/125 at 62.5/125 µm: Specify it when you are patching into an existing 62.5/125 plant and core mismatch would cost you more than the cord does.
Duplex construction: Two fibres in a zip or round jacket, clipped as a transmit and receive pair. Use it for transceiver ports, where polarity has to stay consistent end to end.
Bulk packing options that suit a rollout rather than a single repair
Factory termination and polishing under controlled conditions, not a crimp done on a ladder

Problems It Solves

Mixed connector estates where the equipment port and the distribution frame never match
Jacket ratings that fail a building inspection after the cabling is already installed
Long lead times on non-standard lengths, which stall a commissioning window
Link budgets that pass on paper and fail on site because connector loss was assumed rather than measured

Application Scenarios

Gigabit Ethernet Active Device Termination Premise Installations Telecommunication Networks Multimedia
SFP and SFP+ transceiver ports
Cross-connecting between patch panels in a campus riser
Building portable test leads for field engineering kits
Stocking spares for network maintenance crews
Patching optical line terminals to splitter shelves inside a central office

Who It Is For

OEM equipment makers bundling cords with their own hardware
FTTH and access network operators patching between splitter shelves and subscriber feeds
Data-center and enterprise cabling contractors building out patch fields
System integrators commissioning transmission and monitoring equipment

Technical Features

LC (Lucent Connector) interface
The latch is small and breaks if the cord is pulled sideways out of a dense panel. Use a boot or a push-pull tab on panels packed to 48 ports and above.
Multimode 62.5/125 fiber at 62.5/125 µm
Jacket and boot color coded by polish type for quick field identification
Individually bagged and end-capped so end faces stay clean until installation
Zirconia ceramic ferrule with pre-polished end face
Spring-loaded ferrule assembly to maintain physical contact under load

Materials

Zirconia ceramic ferrule
Copper alloy or stainless coupling hardware
PVC, LSZH or OFNP jacket depending on the building code that applies
Aramid yarn strength members
Thermoplastic boot and housing

Specifications

Product Designation	LC/PC-LC/PC 62.5/125 MM DUPLEX PATCHCORD
Product Family	Fiber Optic Patchcord

Values shown are those carried by the product designation. Dimensional and optical values for a specific order are confirmed on the quotation.

Manufacturing Process

Fiber and connector kitting against the works order
Epoxy injection and fiber insertion into the ferrule
Oven curing of the epoxy bond
Cleave and multi-stage polish to the specified end-face profile
Interferometric and visual end-face inspection
Insertion loss and return loss test on every unit
End-cap fitting, labeling and individual bagging

Quality Control

End-face geometry inspection before the cord is allowed to be tested
Insertion loss and return loss measured per assembly, not per batch
Tensile and side-pull checks on sample units from each production run
Visual inspection for jacket damage, boot seating and label accuracy
Final cleanliness check and end-cap fitting before packing

Customization Options

Any length from short equipment jumpers to long riser runs
Mixed connector types on each end for equipment-to-frame transitions
UPC or APC polish specified per end
PVC, LSZH, armoured or outdoor-rated jacket
Custom boot colors, jacket printing and private-label packaging

Compared With Other Options

SC	SC is more forgiving to handle; LC fits twice the ports per rack unit
MTRJ	MTRJ carries a duplex pair in one ferrule; LC keeps the two fibres separately serviceable
APC version	APC adds an eight degree angle so reflections leave the core, which matters on PON, CATV and RF-over-glass paths. It is not interchangeable with this part.
Single mode version	Single mode costs more at the transceiver but carries reach and upgrade headroom that multimode cannot.

Use Guide

Handling LC/PC-LC/PC 62.5/125 MM Duplex Patchcord

Before You Order

Confirm the connector type and polish at both ends against the equipment and the frame
Confirm fiber mode and core size match the installed plant end to end
Inspect and clean both end faces before every mating, including on a new cord

In Service

Seat the connector fully until the latch or nut engages, then verify with a power meter
Keep the bend radius above the cord's rated minimum through the whole route
Re-cap any cord taken out of service instead of leaving the ferrule exposed

FAQ

Questions About LC/PC-LC/PC 62.5/125 MM Duplex Patchcord

What do you need from us to quote LC/PC-LC/PC 62.5/125 MM Duplex Patchcord?

The quantity, the destination and anything that has to match on your side: connector and polish at each end, fiber mode and core size, and length where the item is an assembly. If you are matching a part you already buy, send the sample and we will quote against it.

Can LC/PC-LC/PC 62.5/125 MM Duplex Patchcord be supplied with a different connector interface?

Yes. LC (Lucent Connector) is what this designation carries, and the same family is stocked across the other mainstream connector standards. Tell us the port you have to mate with and we will confirm the equivalent part.

Is LC/PC-LC/PC 62.5/125 MM Duplex Patchcord available in the other fiber mode?

This item is multimode 62.5/125. Do not mix 62.5/125 cords into a 50/125 channel. Keep the two core sizes physically separated and labeled. The corresponding version in the other fiber mode is available; confirm the installed plant at both ends before ordering.

What connector and polish combinations can you supply on a patch cord?

We build cords with FC, SC, LC, ST, MU, MT-RJ and E2000 ends in UPC, APC and PC polish, including mixed-connector cords with a different type on each end. Tell us the equipment port and the frame port and we will quote the assembly that bridges them.

Can I order non-standard lengths?

Yes. Cords are cut and terminated to the length on your order rather than to a fixed catalog ladder, which is usually cheaper than buying long cords and coiling the slack.
