Keyed LC fiber optic patch cords shall include simplex or duplex
keyed LC connectors on both ends, or on one end with non-keyed
LC or SC connectors on the other end. Keyed LC fiber optic
pigtails shall include simplex or duplex keyed LC connectors on
one end and open (unterminated) on the other end. Keyed LC
connectors shall be mechanically keyed with color-specific
positive and negative keying features to prevent unintentional
mating with unlike keyed or non-keyed adapters. Patch cords
and pigtails shall include laser optimized OM3 fiber, OM2, OM1
and OS1/OS2 fiber inside 900µm tight-buffered fiber or 1.6mm
simplex or duplex zipcord jacketed cable. Jacketed cable shall
be compliant with UL1666 (OFNR) or NFPA 262 (OFNP) flame
ratings. Patch cords and pigtails shall be RoHS compliant and
shall meet or exceed requirements of TIA/EIA-568-B.3. The fiber
connectors shall exceed the requirements of TIA/EIA-455-21A
for 500 mating cycles.
