Among them, SMF is typically OS2, while MMF includes OM1, OM2, OM3, OM4, and OM5. In the following, for simplicity of description, they are referred to as Patch Cord for short. Patch Cords are divided into plug-in types (SC, MU, LC, E2000, MTRJ, MPO, FDDI), screw types (FC, D4. A fiber optic patch cable is a short piece of fiber with connectors on both sides. These cables carry data in pulses of light. They act as the critical link for interconnecting devices like optical switches, servers, and distribution frames. These patch cables are typically used for connections in data centers or between racks to connect fiber optic. Today, manufacturers have introduced various fiber optic patch cord types tailored to different application scenarios, such as MPO/LC/SC/FC/ST patch cords, simplex/duplex patch cords, and single-mode / multimode patch cords.
