NSN Boot LC/UPC to LC/UPC Duplex Fiber Patch Cord 5M OS2 9/125 Single Mode LSZH, IP67 Waterproof FTTA Outdoor Jumper

The NSN Boot LC/UPC to LC/UPC Duplex Fiber Patch Cord is a ruggedized outdoor fiber jumper specifically engineered for FTTA and mobile fronthaul deployments where environmental resistance and signal stability are critical. Designed to bridge indoor baseband units and outdoor remote radio heads, this assembly combines hardened mechanical protection with precise optical performance to ensure uninterrupted data transmission in LTE and 5G networks.

At the interface level, the cable integrates an NSN-compatible hardened boot, enabling secure plug-and-play mating with IP-series bulkhead adapters. Once fully seated, the boot activates a reliable IP67 sealing mechanism, protecting the optical interface against water ingress, dust contamination, and vibration. This design eliminates the need for additional protective enclosures and significantly reduces on-site installation time.

The internal OS2 9/125µm single-mode fiber supports long-distance transmission with low attenuation and minimal back reflection. Both LC connectors are polished to UPC geometry, ensuring stable insertion loss and consistent optical return loss across high-speed links. The duplex structure allows simultaneous transmit and receive channels, making it ideal for modern bidirectional wireless systems.

Encased in a UV-resistant LSZH jacket, the cable is optimized for harsh outdoor exposure while maintaining flame-retardant and low-toxicity characteristics. With a wide operating temperature range and reinforced strain relief, this patch cord delivers long-term reliability for permanent outdoor installations in demanding telecom environments.
