product introduction

 

ST fiber patch cord is a common fiber optic cable with ST (Straight Tip) connectors at both ends. It is mainly used for optical signal transmission connection between devices. ST connector is a circular connector with a bayonet (Bayonet) locking mechanism. After insertion, it needs to be rotated 90 degrees to fix it.

 

Product Features

 

  • High-precision Connection

ST fiber patch cord uses precision ceramic ferrules with a diameter tolerance of ±0.1μm, which is much better than the ±0.5μm of plastic ferrules. This makes the alignment error between the fiber cores no more than 0.07μm, thereby reducing the insertion loss to 0.2dB-0.3dB. In contrast, the insertion loss of ordinary FC patch cords is usually 0.4dB-0.5dB.

 

  • Bayonet Locking

ST fiber patch cord adopts a bayonet locking structure. This structure can provide a pull-off force of more than 50N. In contrast, the pull-off force of traditional threaded FC connectors is usually between 30N-40N. ST fiber patch cords can maintain a stable connection for more than 2 hours at 10-55Hz and 1.5mm amplitude, while FC connectors can usually only maintain a stable connection for 1-1.5 hours.

 

  • Low Return Loss

"Echo" is the energy of the signal reflected back. The end face of the ST fiber patch cord uses APC polishing, and the return loss can reach -65dB, which is much lower than the -40dB of ordinary PC polishing equipment. This low return loss feature ensures that even in long-distance communications of more than 40 kilometers, the signal of our equipment will not be seriously distorted due to reflection.

FAQ

 

Q: What are the main application scenarios of ST Fiber Patch Cords?

A: ST Fiber Patch Cord are mainly used for jumpers and connections in fiber optic communication networks, such as connections between fiber optic distribution frames, switches, routers, and other devices. They provide stable and efficient optical signal transmission and support various fiber optic communication protocols and data transmission rates.

Q: What are the advantages of ST Patch Cords?

A: The advantages of ST Fiber Patch Cables include the use of high-quality optical fibers to ensure low transmission loss and high bandwidth; standard ST connectors that are easy to connect and secure; a moderate bending radius that allows for multiple bends; as well as corrosion resistance and resistance to electromagnetic interference, enabling stable operation in harsh environments.

Q: What is the interface type for ST Fiber Patch Cords?

A: The interface type is ST, which is a common type of fiber optic connector known for its high reliability and ability to withstand multiple plug-in and unplug cycles.

Q: What is the length of Fiber Patch Cords?

A: The length of ST Patch Cords can be customized according to customer needs. Common lengths include 3 meters, 5 meters, and 10 meters. The specific length can be selected based on the actual application scenario and device configuration.

Q: How to maintain and upkeep ST Fiber Patch Cords?

A: Maintenance of Fiber Patch Cords includes regularly inspecting their appearance to ensure there is no damage or contamination; avoiding excessive bending or twisting and maintaining a moderate bending radius; preventing contact with harmful substances and chemicals; and using specialized cleaning agents and care products when necessary for cleaning and upkeep.
