Fibre optic connector DELOCK 86539 LC female–female, green, pack of 2

DELOCK 86539 is an LC female–female fibre optic connector supplied as a pack of two. The connector provides passive coupling between two LC-terminated fibre optic cables, allowing a direct connection without active components. The compact design and green colour coding make it suitable for quick identification in installations using APC-type connectors or where colour marking is required for fibre management.

Advantages

This LC female–female connector enables fast, tool-free coupling of LC-terminated fibres and supports duplex LC connections in a compact footprint. The green colour aids visual identification and reduces the chance of mismatching connector types. Supplied in a pack of two, it offers immediate spare parts for maintenance or temporary patching tasks in fibre networks.

Suitable for

• Joining two LC-terminated single-mode fibres with matching connector type
• Extending or adapting existing duplex LC patch cables
• Temporary patching during fibre installation and testing
• Spare-part use in fibre optic maintenance and repair kits

Key specifications

• Connector type: LC female–female coupler
• Pack quantity: 2 pieces
• Colour: green (colour-coded for APC or specified use)
• Application: passive fibre optic coupling for duplex LC ferrules
• Form factor: compact inline coupler for fibre patching

How to use

To use the LC female–female connector, align the LC ferrules of both terminated fibre cables and insert them into the two ends of the coupler until they click into position. Ensure that the connector colour and ferrule type match the cables to avoid performance loss. Use gentle straight pulls to verify a secure mechanical fit and, if required, perform optical testing with a power meter or light source to confirm signal continuity after connection.

Recommendations

Handle fibre endfaces with care: keep protective caps on unused ends, avoid touching or contaminating ferrule endfaces, and clean connectors with appropriate fibre cleaning tools before making connections to maintain low insertion loss and reliable signal transmission.
