- Fiber core: The core of a patch cord is made of a material with a high refractive index, which allows light to pass through with minimal loss.
- Coating: The coating of a patch cord has a low refractive index, which reflects light back into the core to reduce signal loss.
- Protective jacket: The jacket of a patch cord protects the core and coating from physical damage.
- Connectors: Patch cords have fiber optic connectors on both ends.
- Flexibility: Patch cords can be flexible and bent randomly.
- Tensile strength: Patch cords can have strong crimping and exceptional tensile strength.
- Insertion loss: Patch cords can have low insertion loss and return loss.
- End face finish: Patch cords can have clean and scratch-free end faces.
- Performance: Patch cords can have good performance endurance under changing circumstances.
- Color code: Patch cords can have a color code to help identify them
