Frequently Asked Questions

What is the primary function of this adapter?
This adapter is used to join two LC simplex fiber optic cables together, allowing for the extension or patching of single-mode fiber links.

Can I use this with multimode fiber?
No, this adapter is specifically intended for single-mode fiber applications. Using it with multimode fiber may result in increased signal loss due to ferrule alignment differences.

What does the ceramic sleeve do?
The ceramic sleeve provides high-precision alignment between the two fiber ferrules, which is critical for minimizing insertion loss in single-mode connections.

Is this adapter TAA compliant?
No, this specific model is non-TAA compliant.

Is this a duplex or simplex adapter?
This is a simplex adapter, designed for a single fiber connection.
