SN Fiber Patch Cords
Product Overview
NetSource’s SN fiber patch cords represent the next generation of fiber connectors—engineered for ultra-high-density applications and next-gen data rates. Featuring a Very Small Form Factor (VSFF) SN interface, these patch cords deliver three times the fiber density of standard duplex LC connectors, making them ideal for 400G networks and beyond.
The SN connector includes an integrated push-pull boot for simplified handling, even in dense patch panels where finger access is limited. Built for easy keying and alignment, SN patch cords ensure fast, accurate, and secure connectivity. Available in 1.6mm or 2.0mm jacket diameters, these assemblies are constructed with high-quality ceramic ferrules and ruggedized jackets for enhanced durability and strain relief.
SN patch cords are available in both SN-to-SN and SN-to-LC configurations, and are fully TAA-compliant, making them a reliable choice for data centers, telecom networks, and government-funded infrastructure builds.
