Tired of slow or unreliable network links in your data center? The FS SMSCSTDX 1m SC UPC Duplex to ST UPC Single Mode (OS2) Fiber Patch Cable is the fix you need. This short, high-quality patch cable connects a duplex SC port to a single-mode ST port, letting you keep your optical network fast and stable. If you have mismatched connectors or need a clean link between equipment, this cable solves the problem without extra adapters.
FS SMSCSTDX 1m SC UPC Duplex to ST UPC Single Mode (OS2) Fiber Patch Cable
Many installers face the hassle of incompatible fiber connectors, which can cause signal loss and costly downtime. The mismatch matters because even a tiny loss can break a high-speed link, especially at 1310 nm or 1550 nm. This cable eliminates the mismatch by providing a ready-made SC-to-ST connection with low insertion loss and high return loss, so your network stays reliable and easy to manage.
Benefits
- Fast, stable signal transfer - keeps your data flowing without interruptions.
- Plug-and-play design - no tools or extra adapters needed.
- Durable connectors - survive 1,000 mating cycles for long-term use.
- Low loss performance - insertion loss ≤0.3 dB, return loss ≥50 dB.
- Compact 1 m length - perfect for tight rack spaces.
Usages
Use this cable to link servers, switches, or media converters that have SC ports to equipment with ST ports. It works well in data centers, telecom closets, and campus fiber runs where space is limited. The cable also fits testing setups, allowing you to quickly connect measurement tools to fiber optic hardware. Because it supports both 1310 nm and 1550 nm wavelengths, it is suitable for Ethernet, storage, and video applications.
