What's Special about Armored Fiber Optic Patch Cables

An armored fiber patch cable indicates a fiber optic patch cable with stainless armor inside the cable jacket to protect the central unit of the cable. It can also be considered to be formed with a strong fiber optic connector and an armored fiber optic cable. Armored fiber optic patch cable is considered to be an advanced or structures improved fiber optic patch cable. Because of the special structures that the armored fiber optic patch cable has, it makes the armored fiber patch cord shares some special features compared with the standard fiber patch cables, which can be listed below:

Flexibility
Armored fiber optic patch cable retain all the features of standard patch cord, but they are much more strong and flexible. Because of the stainless steel armor inside, it can be resistant of high tension and pressure, even it is step by an adult person, the armored fiber optic patch cables will not get damaged. It is also almost impossible to be bent or dragged to broken.

Anti-rodents
Armored fiber patch cable also shares anti-rodents features, when they are used for outdoor use, people do not need to worry about the rodent animals like rates may bite the cables and make them broken.

Light and compact
Usually the armored fiber optic patch cords are smaller outer diameter than the standard patch cords, this make them space saving and actually light weight. And they can be handled as easily as other electric cables. Armored fiber patch cables are with different jacket colors or jacket types like PVC, PE or OFNR and different types of termination types including SC, ST, FC, LC, MU,SC/APC, ST/APC,FC/APC,LC/APC etc.

In a word, the armored fiber optic patch cables are designed for being used in harsh environment, in which the traditional standard fiber optic patch cable can not fit or get good performance. It is made with special strong connector and fiber armored cable, it can protect the cable from damage caused by twist, pressure or rodent bite. Installation procedure and maintenance is also easy when use the armored fiber patch cables, which is actually an ideal choice for people who is looking for fiber optic patch cords with additional durability, protection and light weight features.
