CS Fiber Patch Cords
Product Overview
NetSource’s CS fiber patch cords are designed for high-speed, space-constrained environments that require maximum density without sacrificing performance. Developed to support next-generation transceivers such as QSFP-DD and OSFP, the CS connector features two 1.25mm ferrules in a compact footprint—offering twice the density of standard LC duplex connectors.
The push-pull tab design allows for easy access in densely packed panels and transceiver ports, reducing installation time and finger fatigue. These assemblies are ideal for data centers, hyperscale environments, and cloud infrastructure where port density and speed are critical.
CS patch cords are available in both CS-to-CS and CS-to-LC configurations and can be customized to meet specific application requirements. Built to meet industry standards with TAA compliance, they deliver the reliability and flexibility needed for high-performance fiber networks.
