Etherwan Systems FCBL-MMSCLC-2M Sc to Lc Fiber Patch Cable

Product Description

The ETHERWAN SYSTEMS, INC. FCBL-MMSCLC-2M is a multimode fiber optic patch cable terminated with an SC connector on one end and an LC connector on the other. At 2 meters in length, it provides a short, low-loss optical link between network switches, media converters, transceivers, and patch panels. Multimode fiber supports high-bandwidth data transmission over shorter distances, making it well-suited for intra-rack and inter-rack connections in structured cabling installations. Network technicians and low-voltage cabling professionals are the primary installers of this cable type.

This patch cable is used in commercial and light-industrial network infrastructure where multimode fiber is already deployed. Typical applications include connecting fiber-capable switches to media converters, linking patch panels to active equipment, or completing a short fiber run between devices in a telecommunications room or data closet. The 2-meter length is a standard choice for equipment rack environments where devices are housed in close proximity.

Key Features

• Multimode fiber construction supports high-bandwidth, short-distance optical data links
• SC to LC connector configuration bridges common fiber port types found on switches and media converters
• 2-meter length suits intra-rack and adjacent-rack fiber connections
• Pre-terminated design eliminates field polishing and reduces installation time
• Sold individually as a single unit

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style patch cable for multimode fiber network equipment using SC and LC port configurations in structured cabling environments.

Installation Notes

Low-voltage cabling technicians and network infrastructure professionals typically install fiber patch cables. Power down or disable the associated fiber ports before connecting or disconnecting to protect optical transceivers and avoid eye hazard from active laser sources. Keep connector end-faces clean using appropriate fiber cleaning tools before mating, as contamination is a leading cause of optical signal loss. Follow TIA-568 and local structured cabling standards for fiber termination and bend-radius requirements.
