Metal 3.0mm LC Connector for Multimode Fiber with Low Insertion Loss
Simplex and duplex LC connectors compatible with 0.9mm, 2.0mm, and 3.0mm multimode fiber optic cables. These connectors are essential components for fiber jumper cables, enabling reliable cross connections in optical networks.
The LC (Lucent Connector) was originally developed by Lucent Technologies to meet the demand for compact, low insertion loss connectors. Standardized under EIA/TIA-604-10, LC connectors feature a 1.25mm ferrule—half the size of SC connectors—and are rated for 500 mating cycles with typical insertion loss of 0.25 dB.
