A Fiber Optic Patch Cord Manufacturer Built Around Your Spec

Connector, polish, mode, jacket, core count and length are set by you, not by our catalogue. As a fiber optic patch cord manufacturer in Jiangsu we build SC/APC simplex for a GPON rollout or LC duplex OM4 for a data hall, and ship every cord with its test data. Distributors and contractors use us as one fiber optic cable supplier for the whole bill of materials, LC to LC, SC to SC or mixed.

  • Any connector, polish, mode and length — made to order
  • 100% insertion loss and return loss tested with a report
  • Stainless steel armored option for outdoor and industrial use
  • Distributor and telecom contractor programmes welcome

Why source from Hengchang

A patch cord factory, not a reseller

Our Jiangsu base employs about 49 people in a 2,000 m² facility and produces roughly 20 million patch cords a year. Volume like that comes from releases, not from sample-sized favours — and it means your repeat order looks like your first order.

  • Rodent-proof, crush-resistant stainless steel armored option for outdoor and industrial runs
  • 100% optical testing — insertion loss and return loss measured on every cord, report supplied
  • Short, predictable lead times from our own Jiangsu plant, not a trading office
  • Distributor and telecom contractor support: OEM branding, bulk packaging, repeat-order stability
  • LSZH, CE and RoHS compliant constructions for European and Middle-East projects

Configure your cord

Six variables define every patch cord we quote

Send us these six values and you will get an exact price instead of a range. Unsure on any of them? Our engineers will recommend the configuration that matches your network.

Custom fiber optic patch cord specification dimensions
DimensionOptions we manufacture
Fiber typeSingle mode OS2 (9/125 µm); multimode OM1, OM2, OM3, OM4, OM5 (50/125 µm)
Connector (both ends)SC, LC, FC, ST; simplex, duplex or hybrid A–B combinations
End-face polishUPC (blue) or APC (green 8° angle) — mixed mating is never shipped
StructureSimplex or duplex with clip
Jacket / outer diameter2.0 mm, 3.0 mm or 900 µm tight buffer; PVC, LSZH, or stainless steel armored
LengthMade to order from 0.5 m to 100 m+; stocking lengths 1/2/3/5/10/20/30 m

Need help choosing? A quick rule of thumb: runs longer than about 300 m, or any outdoor and telecom work, call for single mode; short high-speed links inside a data hall are usually multimode OM3/OM4.

Labels, reports and packaging that travel with the goods

Each cord is bagged individually with a specification label — connector type, mode, length, jacket and loss data — so your warehouse can receive it without opening every bag.

  • Individual bag, specification label and dust caps on every connector
  • Per-order IL/RL test report
  • OEM branding and custom packaging on request
  • Batch traceability for warranty claims

Buyer questions

What buyers ask before the first order

The questions that come up in almost every first enquiry, answered from the data on this page.

Which fiber types can you supply?
Single mode OS2 (9/125 µm) and multimode OM1, OM2, OM3, OM4 and OM5 (50/125 µm). Runs longer than about 300 m, or any outdoor and telecom work, usually call for single mode.
Which connectors and polishes can I order?
SC, LC, FC and ST connectors on both ends, in simplex, duplex or hybrid A–B combinations. Polish is UPC (blue) or APC (green 8° angle); mixed mating is never shipped.
What lengths can you make?
Made to order from 0.5 m to 100 m and longer. Stocking lengths are 1, 2, 3, 5, 10, 20 and 30 m.
Is every cord tested, and what data comes with it?
Every cord is 100% tested for insertion loss and return loss. A per-order test report is supplied, and each individually bagged cord carries a specification label with connector type, mode, length, jacket and loss data.
What insertion loss and return loss do the cords meet?
Insertion loss ≤ 0.3 dB and return loss ≥ 50 dB.
How many mating cycles do the connectors withstand?
≥ 10,000 mating cycles — the figure is confirmed against your requirement.
Can we order under our own brand and packaging?
Yes. OEM branding and custom packaging are available on request, and bulk packaging is supported for distributor and telecom contractor programmes.
What is the minimum order and lead time?
From 1 piece, with the exact quantity set by your requirement. Lead time is confirmed against your requirement — send your specification list and we will come back within 24 hours.
What does a fiber optic patch cord manufacturer need from me to quote?
Six values: fiber type, connector type, end-face polish, structure, jacket and outer diameter, and length. No drawing or sample is needed, and a quote comes back within 24 hours.
