Fibre Optic Connector LC/LC Female/Female ShiverPeaks BS07-60044

The ShiverPeaks BS07-60044 is an LC/LC female-to-female fibre optic bulkhead connector designed for secure mating of LC-terminated duplex cables. Intended for use in patch panels, enclosures and wall plates, this connector enables reliable high-speed data transmission with low insertion loss and controlled return loss. Its bulkhead format provides a fixed interface point that simplifies cable routing and preserves fibre alignment in networking racks and communication cabinets.

Advantages

This LC/LC female/female bulkhead connector offers a compact duplex form factor that supports dense port layouts. It provides stable mechanical alignment for LC ferrules to minimize signal attenuation and back reflection. The bulkhead mounting reduces cable strain and keeps connector interfaces easily accessible for maintenance and reconfiguration. Constructed for compatibility with standard LC duplex plugs, it supports multimode and singlemode applications when paired with appropriate patch cords and transceivers.

Suitable for

• Patch panels and fibre distribution frames in data centres
• Wall plates and outlets for structured cabling
• Telecommunications enclosures and network cabinets
• FTTx termination points and LAN backbone connections
• Test setups where a fixed adapter interface is required

Key specifications

• Connector type: LC duplex, female-to-female bulkhead adapter
• Physical form: bulkhead/mounting adapter for panels and plates
• Fibre compatibility: supports LC-terminated duplex fibre cables (singlemode or multimode when used with matching cables)
• Port density: compact duplex footprint suitable for high-density installations
• Performance characteristics: engineered for low insertion loss and controlled return loss
• Material and finish: durable housing designed for repeated mating cycles

How to use

Mount the bulkhead connector into the designated cutout of a patch panel, wall plate or enclosure and secure it according to the panel manufacturer’s instructions. Insert LC duplex plugs from both sides, ensuring correct keying and alignment of the ferrules. Verify connection integrity by checking light level, continuity or using an optical power meter and inspect ferrule endfaces if performance issues arise. For singlemode links, use appropriate singlemode LC patch cords and test equipment; for multimode, match the fibre type and core size.

Recommendations

Handle ferrule endfaces with care and keep protective caps in place when connectors are not mated. Clean endfaces with approved fibre-cleaning tools before connecting to minimize insertion loss and back reflection. Use strain relief and proper cable management to protect the bulkhead adapter during installation and maintenance.
