The Complete Range of Patch Cords for High Performance Networks

The AFL Hyperscale range of low loss patch cords is ideal for telecom, datacom, data center, and for many critical low loss applications. Our patch cords provide flexible a interconnection to active equipment, passive optical devices, and cross-connects. 

The patch cords are terminated with premium range physical contact (single mode & multimode) or angled physical contact (single mode) zirconia ceramic ferrule connectors which are manufactured with precision factory mountings and polishing techniques which helps assure high transmission quality.

Whatever the Application, we have a Solution

The Standard Range

With an insertion loss of 0.3dB, our Standard Range of patch cords provide an optimized and cost effective solution for most applications, including enterprise, lan, and datacom. These patch cords provide flexible interconnections to active equipment, passive optical devices and cross-connects. They are terminated with our optimized range of physical contact (single mode & multimode) zirconia ceramic ferrule connectors. These are manufactured with precision factory mounting and polishing techniques which helps assure high transmission quality.

The Enhanced Range

With an insertion loss of 0.25dB, our Enhanced multimode and single mode patch cords are used to connect high speed and legacy networks such as 10/40/100 gigabit ethernet, ethernet, and fast ethernet, telecom, and high-speed metropolitan networks. They are designed for internal use using LSZH OFNR or OFNP cables where appropriate and conform to IEC, EIA TIA  or Telcordia standards. They are terminated with  optimized connectors, which gives an optimum optical performance.

The Premium Range

With our lowest insertion loss of 0.15dB, our Premium low loss range of patch cords are terminated with premium range physical contact (single mode & multimode) and angled physical contact (single mode) zirconia ferrule connectors which are manufactured with precision factory mounting and polishing techniques which helps assure high transmission quality. They are ideal for telecom, datacom, data center, and critical applications. The patch cords provide flexible interconnection to active equipment, passive optical devices, and cross-connects.

Specialist Applications

Polarity Reversible Patch Cords

Our LC Duplex Reverse Polarity Uniboot (LCR) connector has a unique* and branded design for polarity reversal without the use of tools and without twisting or movement of the optical fiber. The QuickFlip uniboot patch cord is supplied with 2 mm round duplex cable, providing greater flexibility and space saving. Our patch cords are terminated with premium-grade zirconia ceramic ferrule connectors which help assure high transmission quality and low optical power loss. *Patent applied for.

Attenuated Patch Cords

High performance attenuated patch cords are used in telecom applications to attenuate the optical signal in a link. Attenuated patch cords can be installed in place of conventional patch cords to provide a constant level of attenuation with a return loss of >50 dB. The attenuated patch cord can be used to replace the conventional cable assembly and attenuator combination. It is a compact, multi purpose passive device designed to operate at the 1310 and 1550 nm wavelengths. Attenuated patch cords can be provided with various connector styles LC, SC, ST and FC to meet customer’s requirements.

Armoured Patch Cords

Enhanced armored patch cords are used in customer premises, central offices and in indoor harsh environments. The patch cords provide flexible interconnection to active equipment, passive optical devices and cross-connects. Armoured patch cords are constructed with an helical stainless steel tape over a buffered fiber surrounded by a layer of aramid and stainless steel mesh with an outer jacket. Our patch cords are terminated with our optimized range of connectors, all quality tested to meet our and international standards.

Mode Conditioning Patch Cords

Our Mode Conditioning Patchcords provide an effective launch platform for 1310 nm Laser switches being used in multimode cabling systems. Mode conditioned patch cords can allow a much higher operational bandwidth by precisely aligning a single mode termination at the laser transmitter and providing an off-center launch into the multimode fiber core. This is essential for networks using legacy 62.5/125 and 50/125 multimode optical fiber and may be specified for current multimode networks depending upon the system requirements.
