Overview
The LC Simplex Multimode Connector is a small form factor fiber optic connector designed for high-density networking environments. Featuring a push-pull latching mechanism similar to an RJ-style modular jack, this connector ensures stable, repeatable connections in system rack mounts. The design utilizes a 1.25 mm zirconia ferrule, which is approximately half the size of a standard SC connector, allowing for increased port density in patch panels and equipment.
Constructed with a molded plastic body and a square front profile, these connectors are suitable for a wide range of multimode fiber applications. Two simplex units can be clipped together to function as a duplex connector, providing versatility for specific installation requirements.
