Overview
The Corning FuseLite® 2 Field-Installable LC 900µm Multimode Splice-On Connectors provide a reliable fusion splicing solution for optical networks. These connectors are designed to deliver consistent optical performance, ensuring high connectivity reliability for various fiber optic installations.
Engineered for efficiency, these connectors feature an integrated splice protection mechanism within the connector body, eliminating the need for separate splice trays. The design offers a user-friendly termination process, enabling quicker and more consistent installs compared to standard field-installable splice-on connectors.
Key Features
-
Integrated Splice Protection
Splice protection is built directly into the connector body, which removes the requirement for external splice trays. -
Factory-Polished End Face
The connector comes pre-polished, reducing the need for field polishing and ensuring consistent optical return loss. -
High Optical Performance
Offers a 0.3 dB maximum and 0.2 dB typical insertion loss for reliable signal transmission. -
Rapid Installation
Designed for faster termination times compared to standard splice-on connectors, increasing technician productivity. -
Broad Operating Temperature
Maintains consistent performance in environments ranging from -40°F to 167°F (-40°C to +75°C). -
RoHS Compliance
Manufactured free of hazardous substances per the 2011/65/EU standard.
Applications
- Reflectance-sensitive fiber optic networks
- Data center cabling
- Field-terminated fiber applications
- Enterprise LAN/WAN connectivity

Frequently Asked Questions
Are these connectors reusable?
These are field-installable, permanent fusion splice-on connectors and are intended for single-use termination.
Do I need a special tool kit to install these?
Yes, these connectors require specific FuseLite2 handlers to facilitate the fusion splicing process.
Can these be used with single-mode fiber?
No, this specific part (FL2-LC-900-OM4-6) is designed exclusively for OM4 multimode fiber.
Does the connector package include the fiber cable?
No, the package includes the connectors only. Fiber optic cabling must be provided separately.
What is the maximum splice loss?
The connector is rated for 0.3 dB maximum insertion loss.
