Duplex patch cables are the most commonly used fibre patch cables. Duplex patch cables consist of two connected cables, each with one fibre per cable. The two cables can be easily separated from each other. For this reason, duplex patch cables are also known as zipcords. Duplex patch cables use fibre for sending and receiving, enabling two-way communication for applications such as the internet and interactive television.
