This product is truly impressive! I must commend its outstanding performance and reliability. The armored design is a highlight of this patch cable. It provides an additional layer of protection, safeguarding the fiber optic cable from bending,pulling, or other external interferences. This robust structure gives me great confidence in the durability and longevity of the patch cable!

Good armored cable is in a league all its own in terms of how durable it is, but only so long as the connectors on either side aren't fragile. Once it's put to a panel you don't have to worry about it again sure, but I've had many a situation both personally and having other people accidentally break LCs off an armored cable while routing it for a variety of reasons. Sometimes you can salvage it if the glass and ferrule aren't broken, but you're not always that lucky. It's easily the weakest link in any fibre cable no matter where it's from, armored or not.

FS, however, sells their armored cable with your choice of connector including SC and ST, which are both far more durable than flimsy LCs while still being easy to handle unlike FCs. This means you can have your important and expensive runs of fibre use the more robust terminations that you can give anyone in the shop to run and when it comes time to patch a switch you can just use a short, inexpensive bit of patch cable to go from your SC/ST into your LC SFP modules. That's a hard sell from other vendors, they rarely sell anything other than LC if terminated at all!

On top of that, they sell this at a very fair price regardless of what you terminate it with or what kind of jacket you want/need. Stop looking: you've found the good stuff :)

i love these armoured patch cords, i use them as test patch cords for my multi mode fiber tester, this is my second set the first set i got the clip on the LC connectors broke after about 600 test but the cords all still testing great.

The connector of this armored jumper is very strong and will not loosen, making the signal stable. Definitely a high-quality choice!

This armored jumper is amazing! The signal is extremely stable and I no longer have to worry about signal interference during data transmission.

Its fiber optic armored patch cords perform excellently at high-speed data transmission without any signal loss or delay. marvelous!

Finally found a jumper that pesky mice can't eat.

I have bought and installed several of these and they work as expected very well.

These seem very well-made and sturdy which was good for me because I used these cables to hide inside the wall. I hooked him up to my 5.5 surround sound stereo and the sound from my regular speakers seems very good now.

the ordering is painless customer service is excellent and the patch cords are great
