LC uniboot cables are constructed for duplex transmission within a single 2.4mm or 3.0mm cable with two fibers in one physical cable with a design that reduces the occupied space on a patch panel by 50% when it connects two optical ports, having to position only one fiber instead of two fibers. So the space requirement of cabling can be significantly reduced by LC uniboot fiber patch cables.
The major advantage is given by the flexibility construction of the end LC connectors. Their design, easily permit to switch the polarity of the fibers only by maneuvering the connectors without the need of a special tool. LC uniboot fiber patch cables with push-plug tap are now available at KEXINT. This little change can make easier finger access and a quicker latch release available, and it can also help to connect or disconnect a single fiber patch cable without affecting other surrounding links.
