Steps to Thread the Pullable Pre-Connectorized Bullet LC/APC Through a Wall Pipe
- Insert the Steel Wire into the Pull Cap
- Pass the φ1mm steel wire through the crimping ring and into the round hole of the pull cap.
- Ensure the cap is securely tightened.
- Position the Crimping Ring
- Place the crimping ring so it overlaps with the steel wire.
- Secure the Crimping Ring
- Use pliers to press the crimping ring tightly.
- Confirm that the wire rope is firmly fixed and cannot loosen.
- Pull the Connector Through the Pipe
- Gently pull the connector with the steel wire through the hidden wall pipe until it reaches the desired position.
Q1: What is a pullable pre-connectorized bullet LC/UPC patch cord?
It is an armored fiber optic patch cord with factory-installed LC/UPC connectors and a compact “bullet” pulling eye, designed for quick deployment through ducts and conduits without damaging the connectors.
Q2: What is the difference between LC/UPC and LC/APC versions?
LC/UPC connectors provide typical return loss of ≥50 dB, suitable for enterprise and data center use. LC/APC offers ≥60 dB return loss, recommended for FTTH and telecom networks requiring minimal back reflection.
Q3: Why use an armored pullable patch cord?
The armored construction protects against bending, crushing, and rodent damage, making it highly durable for both indoor and outdoor environments.
Q4: Can these cords be customized?
Yes. Length, jacket type, pulling-eye size, labeling, and packaging can be customized according to project specifications.
Q5: What jacket options are available?
LSZH is standard for indoor safety, while UV-resistant PE or armored sheaths are available for outdoor installations.
Q6: How are the cords tested before shipment?
All cords undergo 100% insertion loss and return loss testing, along with mechanical durability checks to ensure reliable performance.
Q7: What are the typical applications of LC/UPC bullet-type pre-terminated cords?
They are widely used in FTTH networks, enterprise cabling, data centers, and indoor/outdoor transitions where fast, plug-and-play installation is required.
Q8: What is the typical lead time for delivery?
Standard lengths are usually in stock for quick shipment, while customized armored assemblies generally require 5–10 working days.
