FAQ
The FTTA AARC Plug to LC/UPC Duplex Single Mode Patch Cord is a specialized fiber optic cable designed for FTTA (Fiber to the Antenna) applications requiring AARC (Augmented Antenna Radio Connector) interface connectivity. This 3-foot (approximately 0.9 meter) cable bridges the connection between remote radio units with AARC interfaces and standard LC/UPC equipment, providing critical fiber optic links in cellular base station installations.
Featuring a robust black jacket engineered for outdoor durability, this hybrid patch cord combines the rugged AARC plug connector with standard LC/UPC duplex connectors, enabling seamless integration between antenna-mounted radios and base station equipment. The single mode fiber core ensures long-distance, high-bandwidth signal transmission with minimal loss, supporting modern 4G LTE and 5G wireless infrastructure deployments.
