Fiber optic adapters are very important connecting components used to accurately terminate the optical fiber cables or fiber connectors. The product is manufactured in accordance to environmental standards EN187000 and IEC60794-1-2.
LC-LC-adapters are considered to be one of the most common SFF (Small-Form-Factor) inter-connection devices in fber optic networking. The most efcient duplex-version allows, for example, 24 connections within the given space of a 1U front plate of a patch panel. The LC to LC duplex-adapter for multimode applications features a plastic compound body with push-pull devices, including two zirconia/ceramic sleeves. The product is manufactured in accordance to environmental standards EN187000 and IEC60794-1-2.
A Duplex configuration is a type of cabling arrangement commonly used in data centers and telecommunication networks. It consists of a two fibers cable , terminated with two connector at each end. It is normaly used in Simplex data transmition.
LC FO Connector is a small form factor fiber optic connector that uses a 1,25mm ceramic ferrule to align and connect optical fibers. Used in high-speed communication networks.Provides low insertion loss and high return loss. The connector is easy to install and provides a secure and reliable connection for both single-mode and multimode fiber optic cables. Its compact size makes it ideal for applications where space is limited, such as data centers, telecommunication rooms, and fiber-to-the-home installations.
PC (Physical Contact), is a type of polishing procedure that makes flat surfacein the ferrule end face. The optical return loss of PC connectors is >-40dB. PC connectors may only be mated with other PC or UPC connectors. It can be identified by the blue boot and is used in single-mode and multi-mode fibers. This polishing procedure is outdated and is replaced by UPC.
Multi mode fiber uses a LED or a VCSEL light source, is a type of optical fiber with a big core diameter that allows several rays of light to propagate. It is used in telecommunications and data transmission systems to transmit signals over small distances with high or medium attenuation and bandwidth to 10Gb/s. Multi mode fiber is ideal for medium-speed and small-distance applications, such as networks backbone and fiber to the desk in an enterprise network. Its large core provoques the dispersion of light, preventing signals to travel further and faster than with singlemode fiber.
