Fiber Optic Patch Cord SPlicing

[geoff1985]

Hi Sirs,

I have a problem, I purchase LC type patchcord but lately to found out that i need an SC patch Cord.
THe total lenght is approximately 100meters.
Is it possible to splice the FO patchcord (LC type) to pigtail (SC type)??
Thank you.

Yes ... the patch cord and the pigtail can be spliced together... considering both fibers are either SM or MM. the end connector doesn't effect the splice

would it be possible Sir if i will just use an adaptor instead of splicing?

lc to sc adapter can be used.... but try to buy one with loss <= 3dB
