Abi fiber optic adapter

This fiber optic adapter is designed for connecting LC connectors in high-density multimode network environments in accordance with ISO IEC 11801. The adapter is an LC quad female to LC quad female coupling and is suitable for multimode OM3 (50/125 µm) applications. The quad design allows for managing four separate fiber connections per module within a compact patch environment. Precise alignment via a zirconia ceramic sleeve ensures a stable connection with low attenuation. The adapter is used in patch panels, cassettes, and fiber optic modules where high port density is required. **Specifications** • Type LC quad fiber optic adapter • Connector type LC • Connection side 1 LC female (4×) • Connection side 2 LC female (4×) • Category OM3 • Application multimode fiber optic 50/125 µm • Maximum insertion loss (IL max.) 0.2 dB • Average insertion loss (IL avg.) 0.1 dB • Sleeve material zirconium dioxide (ceramic) • Housing plastic **IEC Standards** • IEC 61754-20 definition of LC connector interface • IEC 61300-3-4 measurement method for insertion loss • IEC 61753-222-2 performance requirements for multimode connectors **Explanation of Terms** • **LC** compact fiber optic connector with 1.25 mm ferrule for high port density • **LC quad** design where four separate fiber optic connections are integrated into one module • **OM3** laser-optimized multimode category suitable for 10G transmission at 850 nm • **Zirconia sleeve** ceramic precision sleeve for exact centering of fiber cores • **Insertion Loss (IL)** optical attenuation at the transition between two fiber optic components **General explanation of LC adapters** • Fiber optic transmits data via light signals instead of electrical signals • Multimode fiber optic is used for short to medium distances within buildings and data centers • **Simplex** single fiber for data transmission in one direction • **Duplex** two fibers for simultaneous communication in both directions Ask a product question
