Fibre Optic Connector LC/LC Female/Female ShiverPeaks BS07-60010

The ShiverPeaks BS07-60010 is a LC/LC Female/Female fibre optic connector designed for bulkhead installation to provide stable, low-loss connections in optical networks. Supplied as a single unit, this connector mates two LC-terminated fibre cables through a fixed panel or adaptor point, offering a compact interface suitable for patch panels, wall plates, and equipment housings where precise alignment and minimal signal degradation are required.

Advantages

This bulkhead LC/LC Female/Female connector delivers consistent optical performance with low insertion loss and high return loss characteristics suitable for singlemode and multimode links when used with appropriate fibre types. Its bulkhead form factor enables neat panel mounting and reliable mechanical support for cable terminations, reducing stress on fibre junctions. The connector's compact LC footprint saves space in high-density installations and simplifies cable management by providing a stable mating point between two LC plugs.

Suitable for

• Patch panels and rack-mounted fibre distribution frames
• Wall plates and faceplates in structured cabling
• Optical equipment enclosures and media converters
• Telecommunications and data centre interconnects

Key specifications

• Connector type: LC female to LC female (bulkhead)
• Mounting style: bulkhead/panel mount single-piece unit
• Contact configuration: duplex-capable interface (depending on installed adaptors)
• Compatibility: for LC-terminated fibre plugs (singlemode or multimode as per fibre type)
• Form factor: compact LC size for high-density installations

How to use

Install the connector into a compatible panel cutout or adaptor opening, securing it according to the panel's mounting method (snap-in or screw-mounted where applicable). Once mounted, insert LC-terminated fibre plugs into each side of the bulkhead connector until they click into place, ensuring correct polarity and that ferrules are clean and undamaged before mating. For removal, depress the plug latch and withdraw straight out to avoid damaging the fibre end faces. Follow standard fibre handling procedures to avoid contamination: inspect and clean connectors prior to mating and protect unused ports with dust caps.

Recommendations

Use this LC/LC bulkhead connector with matching LC fibre plugs and maintain cleanliness to ensure low insertion loss. Select singlemode or multimode fibre types consistent with your network design. Inspect ferrules with appropriate tools and use dust caps when ports are not in use to protect optical performance.
