Featuring the widely recognized Lucent Connector (LC) design, it utilizes a pull-proof mechanism and a compact form factor that is approximately half the size of traditional SC connectors, making it an essential choice for space-constrained patch panels and equipment racks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis connector is optimized for 50μm OM3 multimode fiber applications, featuring an aqua-colored housing to ensure easy identification in color-coded fiber infrastructure. Constructed with a durable molded plastic body and a 1.25mm zirconia ferrule, it provides long-term stability and consistent optical performance. The design incorporates a standard RJ-style latch, allowing for secure, repeatable connections in high-density cross-connect environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSmall Form Factor\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFeatures a 1.25mm ferrule size, allowing for double the port density compared to SC-style connectors.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eZirconia Ferrule\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eUtilizes a high-precision ceramic ferrule for optimal fiber alignment and signal integrity.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePush\/Pull Latch Mechanism\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eProvides a secure, RJ-style locking connection that is easy to install and remove in tight spaces.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAqua Color Coding\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eStandardized aqua housing enables quick visual identification for OM3 multimode fiber networks.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eModular Design\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSimplex connectors can be clipped together to form a duplex configuration as system requirements evolve.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePull-Proof Design\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEnsures the internal fiber remains aligned and protected even when the cable is under light tension.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eApplications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-density fiber patch panels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eData center cross-connects\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTelecommunications distribution frames\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnterprise LAN networks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOM3 multimode backbone cabling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eValue\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eConnector Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLC Simplex\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFiber Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMultimode 50μm (OM3)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFerrule Material\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eZirconia\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFerrule Diameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1.25 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHousing Color\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAqua\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCable Compatibility\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLatch Style\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRJ-Style Push\/Pull\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan these simplex connectors be used as duplex?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, two simplex LC connectors can be clipped together to function as a duplex LC connector.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does the aqua housing indicate?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe aqua color is the industry standard designation for OM3 50μm laser-optimized multimode fiber.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this compatible with 3mm cable?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, this specific connector is designed for 3mm diameter fiber optic cable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the ferrule material?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis connector utilizes a 1.25mm zirconia ceramic ferrule for durability and precision.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy is it called an LC connector?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLC stands for Lucent Connector, reflecting its original development by Lucent Technologies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDownloads\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1026\/4509\/files\/FIS-LC-Connector_b763e5c7-3e5d-42a0-8d3a-9b576b235383.pdf?v=1792190956\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eProduct PDF\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Fosco Connect","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50686357307490,"sku":"F15066AAQ","price":4.17,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1026\/4509\/files\/f15066aq_main_2.jpg?v=1792190967","url":"https:\/\/www.fiberoptics4sale.com\/products\/lc-simplex-multimode-50um-om3-connector-aqua-housing-3mm","provider":"Fosco Connect","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
