Fiber optic patchcord is also known as fiber optic jumper or fiber optic patch cable. It is composed of a FTTH Drop
Fiber cable terminated with different connectors on the ends. For the fiber patch cables, there are two major
application areas which are computer work station to outlet and fiber optic patch panels or optical cross connect
distribution center. For some experienced engineers, they usually divide fiber patch cord as pigtails.
Low insertion loss and High Return Loss
Good durability
Good exchangeability
Convenient installation
High temperature stability
Higher reliability performance
