Fibre optic adapter LC/LC Synergy 21 S215482

The Synergy 21 S215482 fibre optic adapter provides an LC/LC coupling designed for multi-mode fibre connections. Compact and durable, the adapter offers a straightforward interface between LC-terminated patch cords or pigtails, facilitating reliable signal transfer in structured cabling, patch panels and equipment interconnects. The product is RoHS- and REACH-compliant and supplied as a single unit with compact dimensions that simplify installation in confined spaces.

Advantages

This LC/LC fibre optic adapter delivers consistent alignment and low insertion loss for multi-mode fibres thanks to precisely machined ferrule guides and a stable housing profile. Its compact footprint allows integration into high-density panels and small enclosures without compromising accessibility. Compliance with RoHS and REACH standards ensures the adapter meets common environmental and safety requirements for professional installations.

Suitable for

• Connecting multi-mode LC patch cords in data centres and telecommunication rooms
• Use in fibre patch panels, wall plates and equipment front panels
• Laboratory and testing setups requiring repeatable optical couplings
• Small form-factor installations where compact adapters are needed

Key specifications

• Connector type: LC to LC duplex-compatible coupling for multi-mode fibre
• Fibre type: Multi-mode
• Material: Robust housing with precision ferrule alignment
• Compliance: Meets RoHS and REACH environmental standards
• Form factor: Compact dimensions for dense installation environments
• Packaging: Supplied as a single adapter unit

How to use

Install the adapter by aligning the LC connectors of the patch cords with the adapter duplex ports and gently inserting them until a secure, audible click is felt. Ensure fibre connectors are clean and free of dust or debris before mating to minimise insertion loss and protect the fibre endfaces. For removal, depress the connector latch and withdraw the connector straight out to avoid bending or stressing the fibre cable.

Recommendations

Regularly inspect and clean connector endfaces with appropriate fibre cleaning tools before connection. Avoid excessive bending of multi-mode fibre near the adapter and maintain strain relief on patch cords to preserve optical performance and prolong component life.
