Lightwave 3-Meter Single-Mode Duplex Fiber Patch Cord LC UPC to LC UPC (LW-PC-LCU-LCU-DX-SM-3M)

The Lightwave LW-PC-LCU-LCU-DX-SM-3M is a high-performance 3-meter duplex single-mode fiber patch cord engineered for reliable, high-speed data transmission in data centers, telecommunications networks, and enterprise environments. Designed with LC/UPC connectors and OS2 single-mode fiber, it delivers low insertion loss, high return loss, and excellent signal integrity over long distances. Its LSZH jacket ensures safe indoor use, while the bend-insensitive design allows flexible routing in high-density installations, making it ideal for connecting switches, transceivers, and patch panels.

Product Features

High-Precision LC/UPC Connectors

Ultra Physical Contact connectors reduce back reflection and maintain stable, low-loss signal transmission.

Duplex Single-Mode Fiber

Dual-fiber configuration supports simultaneous bidirectional communication, ideal for high-bandwidth network applications.

Optimized for Long-Distance Performance

OS2 single-mode fiber ensures efficient transmission at 1310 nm and 1550 nm wavelengths for extended network reach.

LSZH Safety Jacket

Flame-retardant Low Smoke Zero Halogen jacket provides enhanced safety in enclosed environments such as offices and data centers.

Flexible and Durable Design

Bend-insensitive construction with zirconia ceramic ferrules ensures consistent performance, durability, and easy routing in tight spaces.
