S/CONN fibre optic adapter LC/LC 07-60012 Aqua colour Single-mode

The ShiverPeaks S/CONN fibre optic adapter LC/LC 07-60012 in aqua colour is a single-mode LC to LC coupling designed for in-line connection of two LC-terminated single-mode fiber cables. Supplied as a single unit per pack, this compact adapter provides a stable mechanical join between LC connectors, maintaining low insertion loss and return loss for high-speed data transmission and long-distance links.

Advantages

This LC/LC single-mode adapter offers precise alignment of fiber ferrules to minimise signal loss and back reflection. The aqua-coloured housing provides easy visual identification in structured cabling systems that use colour coding for connector types. Its standard LC form factor makes it compatible with common patch panels, couplers and fiber assemblies, while the durable plastic body ensures reliable physical performance in typical indoor environments.

Suitable for

• Single-mode fiber patch panel connections
• Interconnecting LC-terminated fiber patch cords
• FTTx and telecommunications distribution frames
• Laboratory and test-bench fiber links

Key specifications

• Connector type: LC to LC duplex form factor (single-mode)
• Colour: aqua for single-mode identification
• Material: durable plastic housing with ceramic/aligned ferrule interface
• Pack quantity: one adapter per pack
• Operational environment: indoor telecom and data centre applications

How to use

Inspect both LC connector endfaces for cleanliness before mating. Remove protective dust caps from each LC connector and from the adapter. Align each LC plug with the adapter receptacle and gently push until a positive click confirms engagement. To disconnect, depress the LC latch and pull straight out to avoid damaging the ferrules. Follow standard fiber handling procedures to avoid bending the fiber beyond its minimum bend radius and to prevent contamination of endfaces.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, clean connector endfaces with a suitable fiber cleaning tool before insertion and verify endface condition with a microscope if available. Use the aqua-coloured LC/LC adapter in systems that require single-mode identification, and store unused adapters with dust caps when not in service.
