Product information "LC Duplex Adapters"
LC/PC, LC/APC; Sleeve Zirconia; Duplex; Fiber Type SM/MM/PM
Optoplast’s series of LC duplex adapters are suited for single mode and multi mode applications. Consuming the same footprint as a standard SC Simplex Adapters, they are available in flanged and flangeless versions.
LC duplex adapters connect any pair of single mode, multi mode or polarization maintaining fiber cable terminated with industry-standard LC Simplex Connector Kits and minimize back reflections by bringing the fibers’ cores into physical contact.
Equipped with standard zirconia (single mode and multi mode) or low-loss zirconia mating sleeves (single mode), these high-quality manufactured adapters reliably align the cores of each terminated fiber, guaranteeing a very low insertion loss. After 500 connections the insertion loss variation stays below 0.10 dB.
The body of this series of LC duplex adapters is made from plastic (PBT 20% FRP), allowing for an operating temperature from -25 to +70 °C. Both the flanged and flangeless versions incorporate a metal clip with two tabs that snap into place when inserted into a panel with a maximum thickness of 1.7 mm. In addition to that, flanged adapters with their two threw holes in the flange can be attached to panels or L-brackets using screws.
The LC duplex adapters can be produced in four standard colors – blue (RAL 5015), light green (RAL 6018), beige (RAL 1013) and aqua (RAL 6027). Each LC duplex adapter variant is packaged as standard in units of 100 pieces.
