Conector de fibra óptica LC/LC hembra/hembra ShiverPeaks BS07-60012

The ShiverPeaks BS07-60012 LC/LC Female/Female fibre optic connector is a bulkhead-style coupling designed to join two LC-terminated fibre cables through a panel or enclosure. Sold individually, this connector provides a compact interface for single-mode or multi-mode LC connectors, enabling a continuous fibre path with minimal physical footprint. Its bulkhead configuration facilitates secure mounting in patch panels, faceplates, or equipment chassis while maintaining alignment between mating LC ferrules.

Advantages

This LC/LC female-to-female bulkhead offers precise ferrule alignment to reduce insertion loss and back reflection in fibre links. The compact LC form factor conserves rack and panel space compared with larger connector types. As a panel-mount coupling, it simplifies cable management by providing a fixed, easily accessible connection point. The design supports durable mechanical stability and repeated mating cycles for routine network maintenance.

Suitable for

• Joining two LC-terminated fibre optic patch cords through a wall, panel, or chassis
• Patch panels and telecom cabinets where space-efficient connections are required
• Data centres, server rooms, and networking closets for fibre link splicing points
• Laboratory and equipment interfaces that require a removable fibre coupling

Key specifications

• Connector type: LC female to LC female (bulkhead coupling)
• Form factor: LC (compact duplex footprint)
• Mounting style: panel/bulkhead mounting for faceplate or chassis installation
• Compatibility: mates with standard LC ferrule terminated single-mode or multi-mode patch cords
• Durability: designed for multiple mating cycles and stable mechanical retention
• Construction: metal/plastic hybrid housing for structural stability (typical of bulkhead couplers)

How to use

Install the bulkhead coupling into the appropriate cutout on a patch panel, faceplate, or chassis and secure it according to the panel mounting method. Insert LC patch cords into each side of the coupling until they click or seat fully, ensuring proper ferrule alignment. Verify optical continuity and signal integrity using appropriate testing equipment if required. For removal, depress the LC connector latch and withdraw the patch cord straight out to avoid damaging the ferrule or housing.

Recommendations

Handle connectors and patch cords by their housings to avoid touching ferrules. Keep protective dust caps on unused ports to prevent contamination. Perform regular visual inspection and cleaning of ferrule endfaces with suitable fibre cleaning tools to maintain low insertion loss and reliable performance.
