The OFSCN® 2.0mm Steel Wire Rope Fiber Optic Patch Cord is a high-performance, all-metal armored jumper designed for extreme environments where traditional PVC or LSZH cables would fail.
Technical Overview
This product utilizes a unique multi-layer metal protection structure. Unlike standard “armored” cables that use a simple helical wrap, this patch cord integrates a 0.6mm galvanized steel wire strand over a 1.0mm stainless steel seamless tube. This construction provides superior mechanical protection while remaining non-combustible.
Key Specifications

Why Choose All-Metal Construction?
- Fireproof & Non-Combustible: Since there is no plastic jacket (PVC/LSZH/PE), the cable itself does not provide fuel for fire and is suitable for high-risk industrial environments.
- Mechanical Protection: It is effectively immune to rodent attacks (rats/pests) and can withstand heavy crushing or high-tension pulling that would snap standard cables.
- Harsh Environments: Ideal for outdoor, industrial, or underwater applications where high durability is required.
