This 288-core SC/APC breakout fiber optic patch cord is a factory pre-terminated fanout assembly designed for high-density single-mode fiber networks. It features 288 OS2 9/125μm fibers constructed with a 12-strand ribbon fanout design, transitioning the central trunk into individually terminated SC/APC connectors. The APC (Angled Physical Contact) polish delivers return loss ≥60dB and insertion loss ≤0.3dB, ensuring stable signal transmission over long-distance links.
Core Advantages
* 288-Fiber High-Density Design — Maximizes fiber count in a single cable pathway, reducing cable congestion and installation time in data center environments.
* SC/APC Angled Polish Connectors — Delivers superior return loss performance (≥60dB), ideal for RF video and FTTx networks where signal reflection is critical.
* 12-Strand Ribbon Fanout Construction — Each breakout leg is individually ruggedized, protecting fiber terminations during routing while enabling quick plug-and-play deployment.
* 100% Factory Tested — Every assembly undergoes insertion loss, return loss, and end-face geometry inspection before shipment.
* Multiple Jacket Options — LSZH, OFNP (Plenum), and PVC jackets available to meet diverse building code requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions(FAQ)
Q: What is the difference between a breakout cable and a standard patch cord?
A: A breakout cable transitions a high-fiber-count trunk into individual single-fiber connectors through a fanout kit, while a standard patch cord connects equipment directly with pre-terminated connectors on both ends.
Q: Why choose SC/APC over SC/UPC for this cable?
A: SC/APC connectors feature an 8-degree angled end-face that delivers ≥60dB return loss, making them essential for applications sensitive to back reflection such as FTTx and RF video networks.
Q: Can I customize the fiber count or breakout length?
A: Yes. Fiber counts from 8 to 288, breakout lengths, connector types, and jacket materials are fully customizable to project specifications.
Q: What certifications does this product comply with?
A: This assembly complies with IEC 61754-7, TIA-604-5, and Telcordia GR-326-CORE, and is RoHS 2011/65/EU compliant.
