LC UPC Adapter Description:
The LC UPC Adapter with flange is a crucial component in fiber optic communication systems, facilitating the connection between two LC connectors while ensuring minimal signal loss and stable performance. This adapter is designed for duplex fiber connections, which means it can handle two fibers simultaneously, making it ideal for high-density network environments.
Key Features:
- LC (Lucent Connector) Compatibility
- Small Form Factor: The LC connector is known for its compact size, which allows for high-density installations. This makes the adapter suitable for data centers and other environments where space is at a premium.
- Secure Connection: The LC connector features a latch mechanism that provides a secure and reliable connection, minimizing the risk of disconnection or signal loss.
- UPC (Ultra Physical Contact) Polish
- Low Back Reflection: The Ultra Physical Contact polish reduces back reflection to typically below -55dB. This minimizes signal loss and ensures high-quality optical transmission.
- Enhanced Performance: The precise polishing process enhances the connector’s performance, making it suitable for high-speed and high-bandwidth applications.
- Duplex Configuration
- Simultaneous Dual-Fiber Connection: The duplex design allows for the connection of two fibers simultaneously. This is particularly useful for applications requiring bi-directional data transfer or where space efficiency is critical.
- Ease of Installation: Duplex adapters simplify installation and maintenance by reducing the number of individual connectors that need to be managed.
- Flange Design
- Stable Mounting: The flange provides a stable mounting point, ensuring that the adapter remains securely in place. This is important for maintaining alignment and preventing signal loss or degradation.
- Versatile Installation: The flange allows the adapter to be easily mounted onto panels, enclosures, or faceplates, providing versatility in various installation environments.
- Durable Construction
- High-Quality Materials: Constructed with high-quality materials, the adapter is designed to withstand mechanical stress and environmental factors, ensuring long-term reliability.
- Protective Housing: The robust housing protects the internal components from dust, dirt, and other contaminants that could affect performance.
