Frequently Asked Questions
What is the primary function of this adapter?
This adapter acts as a mating sleeve to connect two LC duplex patch cords together, typically within a patch panel or wall-mount enclosure.
Is this adapter compatible with singlemode fiber?
No, this specific part is rated for multimode fiber applications.
What does "no flange" mean?
No-flange adapters are designed for mounting where the adapter is secured via a clip or snap-in mechanism rather than by screws through an external flange.
Can I use this for APC connectors?
This adapter is designed for standard multimode LC connections. Use specific APC-rated adapters for angle-polished connectors.
What material are the internal sleeves made of?
This product features phosphorous bronze alignment sleeves.
