High-Power Industrial Fiber Optic Cable Assembly, Duplex Zipcord
A high-power industrial fiber optic cable assembly built on a duplex zipcord platform joins two optical subunits in one flat, splittable body – balancing mechanical protection with routing flexibility for custom OEM links.
Product Overview
The zipcord construction keeps two fibers together during routing while allowing the legs to separate cleanly for termination. This base cable feeds our industrial and high-power fiber assemblies, where the optical element is defined by the fiber type and the mechanical rating by the selected production spec.
Photographed jackets, colors and protection styles are selectable configurations; confirm each visible option against your quotation or approved drawing.
Key Features
- Two joined optical subunits in zipcord construction
- Fiber, buffer, reinforcement and jacket specified per project
- Mechanical protection balanced against flexibility and diameter
- Ideal base for custom terminated OEM assemblies
- Easy duplex routing and polarity management
- Final ratings remain configuration-dependent

Performance & Reliability
Performance is set by fiber grade, buffer system, strength members, jacket material, reinforcement, finished diameter, bend limits and installation environment. The construction image explains the concept but does not establish a universal dimensional or environmental rating.
Customization & Ordering
State fiber count and type, outer diameter, jacket compound, flexibility, flame requirement, tensile requirement, temperature range, connector combination and routing conditions. We evaluate a representative sample before volume approval. All assemblies are terminated, end-face inspected and individually tested before dispatch. Send your drawing, connector pair, fiber type and target volume, and our engineers will return a configuration, sample plan and lead time. Contact our sales team for OEM/ODM support.
FAQ
Q: What is a zipcord?
A: A zipcord holds two round fiber subunits joined by a thin web, so they route as one duplex cable but split apart easily at the ends for termination.
Q: Can the two fibers be different?
A: Typically they are the same fiber; we can tailor the fiber type, jacket and connectors to your link.
Q: Do you supply the finished terminated cable?
A: Yes – we build the zipcord into fully terminated high-power assemblies with the connector pair you specify.
