Optical Fibre patch cords are a defining factor in ensuring your network performs to the highest level. A patch cord can be split into three crucial components, the connector, the cable and the manufacturing process. These three areas all contribute to the performance of a patch cord, but above all the manufacturing process is the one that defines the performance of the assembly. Whilst the cable and connectors used in our optical fibre patch cords are the best available, it is our expertise in production that sets our products apart.

We  has 10 years experience in selling  fibre optic cable assemblies using Biconic and SMA through ST, SC to today’s SmallForm Factor connectors like the LC, MU, MT-RJ or SC-DC. If you have a fibre network, no matter what the technology, ERSB  can offer you a solution to your problem.

 Our range of patch cords has grown through the years, from every day standard lengths to special products to meet your needs. From industry standard 62.5/125 multimode to 9/125 singlemode right the way up to state of the art OM3 50/125 cable assemblies, We can supply them all. With a our patch cord you canbe confident you are using the very best in cable, connectors and manufacturing.

Description

The SofeTEK optical fibre patch cords are

manufactured using the best quality

components. The connectors are the market

leading SofeTEK range of connectors, and the

cable exceeds all areas of the standards

required for the assembly being produced.

Non-standard cables can be made to your

own exacting standards in our ISO 9001 UK

production facility. This encompasses all of

the essential tools to ensure the products not

only meet but also exceed the requirements

laid down in IEC international standards for

fibre optic terminations.
