Fibre Optic Connector LC/LC Female/Female ShiverPeaks BS07-60043

The ShiverPeaks BS07-60043 LC/LC Female/Female fibre optic connector is a bulkhead-mount adapter that provides a secure coupling for LC-terminated multimode or singlemode fibre cables. Designed for panel or enclosure installation, it aligns two LC connectors with mechanical precision to maintain low insertion loss and consistent optical performance across networking, telecommunication, and data centre environments.

Advantages

This LC/LC female-to-female bulkhead adapter offers stable optical alignment and minimal signal attenuation thanks to precision ceramic ferrules and a compact LC form factor. The adapter's bulkhead design simplifies mounting in racks, panels, or patch enclosures, while durable housing materials ensure mechanical protection and extended service life. Its standard LC interface provides broad compatibility with industry connectors and cabling.

Suitable for

• Connecting two LC-terminated fibre patch cords through a panel or enclosure
• Patch panels and rack-mounted fibre distribution frames
• Telecommunications and network cabinets where bulkhead mounting is required
• Data centre fibre interconnects and equipment-to-equipment links

Key specifications

• Connector type: LC female to LC female (bulkhead adapter)
• Mounting style: panel / bulkhead mount
• Compatible fibre types: singlemode and multimode (depending on connected cables)
• Ferrule material: precision ceramic (ensures low insertion loss)
• Housing: compact LC form factor for high-density installations
• Typical use: optical coupling between LC patch cords in structured cabling

How to use

Install the adapter by securing it into the designated cutout on the patch panel, distribution frame, or enclosure, ensuring the bulkhead fits flush and locks into place per the panel's mounting method. Insert LC-terminated patch cords into each side of the adapter until they click into the LC sockets; verify physical connection and that cables are routed to avoid excessive bend radii. Test optical continuity and insertion loss with appropriate fibre test equipment after installation to confirm correct alignment and performance.

Recommendations

Use compatible LC patch cords and follow standard fibre handling practices: keep connector endfaces clean, avoid touching ferrules, and use dust caps when connectors are not mated. For best performance, perform visual inspection and cleaning of endfaces before mating and periodically check connections in high-traffic installations.
