Product Overview of OFSCN® 2.0mm Micro Steel Armored Fiber Optic Patch Cords (Type 01):

OFSCN® 2.0mm micro steel armored fiber optic patch cord is a special fiber optic patch cord produced by Beijing Dacheng Yongsheng Technology Co., Ltd. (short for DCYS).

This armored fiber optic patch cord consists of fiber optic connectors (FC, SC, LC, ST, etc.), polyethylene sheath, stainless seamless steel tube, and optical fiber. The conventional stock is single-mode fiber optic patch cords, and multimode optical fiber patch cords can also be produced.

The OFSCN® 2.0mm micro steel armored fiber optic patch cord is suitable for both civilian use and industrial use. It can be widely used in various temporary wiring connections, home fiber optic wiring and cable extension, integrated wiring horizontal subsystems, and equipment connections in narrow spaces and extreme environments.

The OFSCN® 2.0mm micro steel armored fiber optic patch cord has many features:  a compact size, light weight, high tensile strength, high compressive strength, water and moisture resistance, wear resistance, invisibility, flexibility, and rodent bite prevention etc..

Characteristics of OFSCN® 2.0mm Micro Steel Armored Fiber Optic Patch Cords

• Compact Armor: The most notable feature is the 0.6mm seamless stainless steel tube directly surrounding the optical fiber. This "micro armor" provides significant crush and rodent resistance in a much smaller diameter (2.0mm overall) compared to traditional armored cables.
• Space-Saving Design: The slim 2.0mm outer diameter makes this patch cord ideal for installations where space is at a premium, such as in crowded cable trays, conduits, or equipment racks.
• Durable Outer Jacket: The Polyethylene (PE) outer jacket offers environmental protection against moisture, abrasion, and UV radiation, ensuring longevity even in challenging conditions.
• Flexible Fiber Options: Like its larger counterpart, this patch cord can accommodate G657A single-mode fiber (known for its bend insensitivity), multimode fiber, or polarization-maintaining (PM) fiber. This versatility allows it to meet various transmission requirements, from long-haul data transfer to short-distance high-bandwidth applications or specialized sensing.
• Pre-terminated for Easy Installation: As a patch cord, it comes with pre-installed fiber optic connectors on both ends, ensuring quick, reliable, and error-free plug-and-play deployment.
• Good Bend Performance: The G657A fiber, combined with the flexible micro steel tube, generally allows for good bend performance, which is crucial in compact installations.

Possible Application Scenarios & Industries of OFSCN® 2.0mm Micro Steel Armored Fiber Optic Patch Cords

This micro armored patch cord is particularly well-suited for environments where a balance of protection and a small footprint is essential.

Application examples of OFSCN® 2.0mm Micro Steel Armored Fiber Optic Patch Cords:

• FTTH (Fiber to the Home/Desk): As an indoor drop cable where enhanced protection against accidental damage (e.g., from furniture, pets) is desired without the bulk of a standard outdoor cable.
• Data Center Interconnects: For patching within racks or between equipment in high-density data centers where space is limited, but cables need to withstand frequent handling or routing.
• Security Camera Networks: Connecting IP cameras in both indoor and outdoor settings where the cable needs to be discreet yet resilient against physical damage or rodent attacks.
• Industrial Machine Vision/Sensors: For connecting sensors or cameras on machinery where vibration, limited space, or incidental contact might occur.
• Building Automation Systems: Routing within walls, ceilings, or floor conduits where a thin, protective cable is beneficial for installation and longevity.
• Medical Equipment: For internal wiring or external connections of medical devices where reliability and a small form factor are critical.
• Telecommunications Basestations/Cabinets: For internal wiring or short outdoor runs to small cell antennas where space is constrained, but environmental protection is still required.

Examples of industries where OFSCN® 2.0mm Micro Steel Armored Fiber Optic Patch Cords are used:

• Telecommunications (FTTx, Wireless Infrastructure)
• Enterprise Networking (Data Centers, Office Buildings)
• Security & Surveillance
• Industrial Automation & Robotics
• Medical Devices
• Building Management Systems (BMS)
• Smart Home/Building Integration
