Multimode launch cable 50 um SC/SC

Fluke Fibre Optic Test Equipment Patch Cord, Multimode Launch Cable Type, For Use With Optifiber Pro OTDR - MMC-50-SCSC

This Fibre optic test equipment patch cord provides a multimode launch link used with OTDR instruments in cabling certification and troubleshooting workflows. Designed as an accessory for the OptiFibre Pro OTDR family, it delivers a short, controlled launch reference to facilitate accurate event location and loss characterisation in dense connector environments common to enterprise and datacentre installations.

Features & Benefits

• 50μm core size for representative multimode signal launch and coupling
  SC/SC terminations for direct connection to OTDR ports and launch leads
  Supports Rapid event detection with minimal insertion uncertainty
  Complies with ISO and TIA standards for consistent test methodology
  Robust construction for repeated field use and handling

**Applications**

• Used with OptiFibre Pro OTDR for Tier 2 extended certification tasks
  Suitable for datacentre link fault localisation and short-link testing
  Ideal for installers performing bi-directional OTDR measurements
  Used for characterising patch panels and high-density connector arrays

Which connector types are fitted to the lead?

It is supplied with SC connectors on both ends to Interface directly with standard OTDR adaptor ports.

How does this lead affect measurement consistency?

By providing a defined multimode launch reference it reduces measurement variability at the instrument input and aids repeatable event detection.

Can it be used for short, connector-rich links in storage networks?

Yes, the multimode launch cord is intended for short, heavily connected links where precise event location is required.

Is this lead compatible with Fibre inspection or VFL tools integrated into the tester?

The cord’s SC terminations permit use alongside inspection and Visual fault locator accessories when fitting to corresponding adaptors and ports.
