For its SMJ series of single mode (SM) patch cables, OZ Optics produces high-quality fiber optics patchcords using a variety of commercially available connectors and fibers. These patchcords offer low insertion losses, and excellent repeatability. SMJ SM patch cables can be manufactured to any specified length. An array of cable materials is available, including unjacketed fiber, 0.9 mm outside diameter (O.D) loose tube buffer, 3 mm O.D Kevlar reinforced PVC jacketing, 3 mm armored cabling, and 5 mm heavy duty armored cabling as well as 3 mm or 5 mm stainless steel armored cablings.

OZ Optics offers single mode (SM) fibers for a variety of wavelengths, ranging from 320 nm to 1550 nm, as well as 2000 nm fibers. They typically have a 99% numerical aperture (NA) of about 0.13. Higher NA single mode fibers are available for certain special applications. When ordering single mode fibers please specify what wavelength it will be used for. Single mode fiber designed for 1300 nm will not be single mode at 633 nm. Single mode fiber designed for 488 nm will work at 633 nm with only slightly higher losses, but at 700 nm the losses are too high. A large assortment of fiber types is available from stock. OZ Optics also offers custom cabling services for customer-provided fibers. Please contact AMS Technologies for available fiber types.

SMJ SM patch cables can be terminated with NTT-FC, SC, AT&T-ST, LC, and SMA connectors, as well as other connector types. FC connectors are highly recommended for both single mode and multi mode use. They offer high precision and repeatability. SMA connectors are used mainly for very large core fibers and high-power applications. FC connectors with Super PC and angle polished (APC) end faces are available to minimize back reflection. Typical back reflection levels are 45 dB for Super PC connectors and 60 dB for APC connectors. FC connectors for SM fibers with ferrule hole sizes of 79 µm, 80 µm, and 83 µm are available to accommodate small cladding size fibers.

For high-power single mode (SM) patch cables, please refer to OZ Optics’ QSMJ series.
