10/100BASE-T SFPCustomized Duplex Fiber Patch Cable, LC/SC/FC/ST/LSH/MU/MTRJ, OS2
New Zealand engineering teams can use the documented values below to compare the product with the intended channel and as-built requirements. This made-to-order fiber patch cable is built to the particular design the project specifies: connector styles, polish, fiber mode, jacket and length are all selected at order time and this manufactured assembly is factory terminated and optically tested before dispatch.

Built to the order
The made-to-order program covers the combinations that stock lists cannot: mixed connector families, non-standard jackets, unusual lengths, identification and packing to the project specification. This manufactured assembly is terminated and tested exactly like a stock product, with the design confirmed before production is released.
Where single-mode jumpers earn their place
Single-mode patching carries the links that leave the room: campus backbones, carrier handoffs, long runs between buildings and each wavelength-multiplexed service. The OS2 glass in the supplied assembly is the matching section used in the outside plant; therefore, the relevant jumper does not on its own become the weak point of the loss-budget calculation. At 1310 and 1550nm the attenuation stays a fraction of a decibel per kilometer, and the relevant connector pair adds less than 0.3dB when the end faces are clean and seated.
Connector and polish choices in the single-mode plant
The OS2 interface on this jumper follows the polish discipline of the network it serves. Mixing polishes on a mated pair destroys the return loss and may damage the ferrules; therefore, the patch side must be compatible with the relevant panel side exactly. When the documentation is unclear, the boot color and the relevant connector housing tell the truth: green for APC, blue or beige for UPC.
Length Options
Regular length versions cover the common patching routes: 1m (3ft), 2m (7ft), 3m (10ft), 5m (16ft), 10m (33ft), 15m (49ft), 20m (66ft), with made-to-order length offered beyond the list. Specifying the measured channel length keeps the slack out of the manager and the strain off the connection interfaces.
Quality Control and Testing
Each optical assembly is terminated with precision zirconia ferrule connectors and optically tested before packing: insertion loss and return loss are verified on every cable, and end-face geometry is inspected for consistent physical contact. The relevant cable ships with dust caps on the two connectors and the test result offered on specify.
Ordering and Factory Support
Refer to this design by connector pair, fiber mode and length when requisitioning a quotation. For configurations outside the listed options, mixed connector families, jackets, identification or project packing, send the requirement with the enquiry and the factory will cross-check the build before production is released. New Zealand project orders can include documentation and labeling requirements alongside the technical configuration.
