Lightera Splice-On Connector LC/UPC Singlemode 2mm 10 Pack

Overview

The Lightera Splice-On Connector (SOC) system is designed for efficient, consistent field termination of singlemode fiber optic cables. By utilizing a fusion-splice-based connection method, this solution eliminates the requirement for epoxy or field polishing, significantly reducing installation time and improving the overall quality and reliability of the fiber link.

These connectors are engineered for high-performance connectivity in FTTx applications. The design supports simplified assembly, making it suitable for technicians requiring a balance between speed and precision without extensive specialized training. This 10-pack provides the necessary components for multiple point-of-use terminations in professional networking environments.

Key Features

• Field-Termination Efficiency
  Enables rapid and consistent installation, significantly reducing total labor time compared to traditional connector methods.
• Fusion-Spliced Reliability
  Ensures a permanent, high-strength connection by fusion splicing the fiber rather than relying on mechanical retention.
• Epoxy-Free Design
  Eliminates the wait times associated with curing adhesives, allowing for immediate testing and deployment.
• No Field Polishing
  Reduces the need for messy polishing films and tools, ensuring a cleaner workspace and standardized end-face geometry.
• Singlemode Compatibility
  Specifically optimized for singlemode OS2 fiber environments for long-distance and high-bandwidth transmission.
• Compact Form Factor
  Designed for 2mm cable diameters, ensuring compatibility with standard FTTx drop and distribution cables.

Applications

• FTTx network installations
• Fiber drop cable repairs
• Data center cable management
• Enterprise LAN/WAN connectivity
• Central office cross-connects

Technical Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this connector compatible with multi-mode fiber?
No, this specific part number (FSOCLC20SMU) is designed for singlemode fiber only.

Does this kit require a fusion splicer?
Yes, this is a splice-on connector, meaning it must be fusion-spliced to the fiber using a compatible fusion splicer.

Can these connectors be reused?
No, splice-on connectors are intended for a single permanent installation.

Does the kit include the 2mm cable?
No, the product consists of 10 splice-on connector assemblies; the cable is provided by the installer.

Is polishing required after splicing?
No, Lightera SOC connectors are factory-pre-polished, eliminating the need for field polishing.
