10/100BASE-T SFPCustom LC/SC Simplex FTTA Outdoor Patch Cable, OS2, 7.0mm LSZH
Singapore high-density designs should assess this item together with panel access, cable routing and the complete optical loss allowance. The custom simplex FTTA program builds the single-fiber outdoor base station jumper to the specific arrangement of the channel: LC or SC connectors in any mix, the measured pathway length, and an armored branch length matched to the exposed section at each end. It serves the bidirectional and single-fiber optics increasingly used on radio units, where one strand carries both directions of traffic. The platform is the proven FTTA outdoor structure: one OS2 9/125µm single-mode fiber of Corning G.657.A1 glass in a 7.0mm LSZH jacket with helical steel armored protection over the tails.

A custom cord for single-fiber radio links
Because bidirectional optics place transmit and receive on one strand, the completed jumper between the baseband equipment and the radio needs exactly one fiber. Ordering that jumper as a customized simplex cord matches the hardware precisely: this connector interface at each end follows the actual port, the length follows the measured pathway, and nothing is left over. Compared with adapting a duplex cord, the customized simplex build removes the parked leg, halves this connector interface count on the record, and keeps the tower deployment as light as it may also be.
Connector freedom at both ends
Radio units, enclosures and frames present LC and SC interfaces depending on vendor and generation. The customized program terminates any mix of LC and SC on the corresponding outdoor platform, polished and tested in the factory. A site that evolves from SC-based enclosures to LC-based radios is served by one cord with LC on one end and SC on the other, with no adaptors in the optical channel and no extra mated pair in the link budget.
Outdoor mechanics unchanged
The custom cord keeps the full outdoor rating of the standard FTTA range: 200/400N long and short-term tensile strength for pulling and vertical hanging, 1100/2200N crush resistance, helical steel armored branches over the exposed tails, and an operating range from -20 to 70 degrees Celsius. The G.657.A1 fiber holds attenuation stable at the 10D static bends that appear inside congested enclosures and radio shrouds.
Repeatability across the rollout
For operators deploying the corresponding radio arrangement across numerous sites, the custom cord is specified once and repeated exactly: connector mix, length, armored branch and marking. Every site receives the identical product, commissioning follows the corresponding steps, and the spares holding stays minimal for the reason that one recorded arrangement covers the whole fleet.
Length choices and custom production
State the measured pathway length with the enquiry, including the tray channel and working slack at both connector interfaces; the factory builds to that figure and confirms the manufacturable specification before manufacturing begins.
Quality assurance and factory testing
Each custom simplex cord is terminated with precision zirconia ferrule connectors and optically tested as a full product: insertion loss is verified against the 0.3dB ceiling and return loss against the 50dB minimum. End-face geometry is inspected on each optical connector so the delivered cord may also be plugged into service without on-site rework.
Quotation and Factory Support
Send the correct connector mix, pathway length and armored branch preference with the enquiry. The factory confirms the manufacturable specification before manufacturing begins and keeps the arrangement on record for repeat orders across the rollout. Singapore and regional project orders can be reviewed for interface compatibility, packing details and delivery coordination.
