Overview
The Corning SOC-LCU-900-SM FuseLite® Field-Installable LC/UPC 900µm Single Mode Splice-On Connector is engineered for reliable, permanent fusion splicing in local area network environments. By integrating the splice protection directly into the connector body, this design eliminates the need for external splice trays, simplifying installation and saving valuable space in enclosures.
This connector features a factory-polished end face to ensure consistent, high-quality optical performance with a maximum insertion loss of 0.3 dB. It is ideally suited for reflectance-sensitive applications and is fully compatible with most industry-standard fusion splicers. Built for durability, the assembly performs reliably in temperatures ranging from -40°F to 167°F (-40°C to +75°C).
