UNIBOOT LC - LC FIBRE PATCH CORD Manufacturer & Supplier in United Kingdom

UNIBOOT LC - LC FIBRE PATCH CORD

They comprise two tight buffer fibres housed within a common outer jacket in OM1, OM2, OM3, OM4, OS1, OS2 multi-mode and single mode variants. Both ends are terminated with a high performance hybrid type connector comprising of a Uniboot LC, SC, connector in duplex. These are typically not ruggedized, depending on the application and a spring loaded electrical contact housed within LSHF plastic shell possible, making them suitable for internal use.
