Fiber Optic Patch Cord ShiverPeaks LC-LC Quad Blue, 07-60040

ShiverPeaks Fiber Optic Patch Cord LC-LC Quad in blue is a compact quad-fiber LC-to-LC patch cord intended for high-density optical connections. The cable provides four parallel single-fiber links in a combined LC quad housing, enabling space-efficient mating between LC-terminated equipment and panels. This patch cord is designed for use in data centers, telecommunication racks and optical distribution frames where multiple single-mode or multimode fiber connections must be routed together while preserving connector density.

Advantages

The quad LC form factor reduces front-panel space compared with four individual LC connectors, simplifying cable management and lowering congestion in patch panels. The integrated housing maintains consistent fiber alignment for reliable low-loss connections and repeatable mating cycles. The blue jacket provides clear visual identification for color-coded infrastructure and helps distinguish this run from other fiber types or services.

Suitable for

• High-density data center patching where multiple parallel fiber links are required
• Telecommunications racks and distribution frames with limited front-panel space
• Interconnections between LC-terminated network equipment, transceivers and patch panels
• Cabling setups that benefit from color-coded fiber identification and bundled routing

Key specifications

• Connector type: Quad LC to Quad LC
• Fiber count: 4 parallel single-fiber links in one quad housing
• Jacket color: Blue for visual identification
• Construction: Integrated quad connector housing for compact installation
• Intended use: Patch cord for fiber optic interconnects in racks and panels

How to use

Install the ShiverPeaks LC-LC Quad patch cord by aligning each quad LC connector with the corresponding quad LC adapter or panel cutout, then insert the connector until it clicks into place. Ensure that mating adapters and transceiver ports are clean and free of dust before connecting; use appropriate fiber cleaning tools when necessary. When removing the cable, depress the connector latch and pull straight out to avoid bending the fiber or stressing the connector housing. Route the cable following standard bend-radius guidelines and secure it to cable management elements to prevent strain on the connectors.

Recommendations

For reliable performance, clean connector end faces prior to each connection, avoid tight bends and excessive tension on the cable, and use color-coding practices to manage multiple parallel links. Verify compatibility of fiber type and transceiver requirements before installation.
