LC Jumpers High Preformance Compact Jumpers that Enable More Density and Increased Durability
Features and Benefits
• Half the size of standard connectors: • Pull-proof: maintains optical contact doubles fiber density in shelves and under loads and helps prevent outlets - lowering system cost accidental disconnects • RJ-45 style push/pull housing: • PC finish: helps minimize allows easy disengagement in dense transmission problems, optimizes spaces optical contact
AllWave® FLEX Jumper repeatability, maintains transmit/ and reduces cross connect receive direction rearrangement effort
Applications Product Description
• Telecommunications Networks OFS offers an extensive line of LC fiber optic jumpers. Included in the offering are both • Cable Television (CATV) simplex and duplex jumpers as well as hybrids and pigtails. • Premises Distribution • Local Area Networks (LAN) The LC Unibody® Connector used on the LC Patchcords has a trigger mechanism that • Fiber-to-the-Home (FTTx) allows the connector to be easily engaged and disengaged. This trigger also prevents • Data Processing Networks the plug from snagging when jumper cables are being routed. On multimode duplex • Fiber-to-the-Desktop jumpers, the trigger also allows the two plugs to be simultaneously disengaged. • Device Terminations The LC Jumpers are available in 1.6, 2.0, and 3.0 mm diameter cordage. The smallest in the industry, the 1.6 mm cordage allows greater jumper density in a fully loaded frame and prevents congestion in overhead racks. A duplex jumper made from a figure-eight MiniCord® Cordage does not require a bulky bifurcation joint thereby saving space in the frame. The duplex MiniCord jumper can be peeled apart with ease so that two cords can be installed as one, then easily separated into two, saving time and effort. Single-mode cordage uses OFS’ AllWave® FLEX Fiber providing excellent bend loss performance. The bend radius allows jumpers to be installed in spaces with limited maneuverability or around sharp corners.
Jumpers are tested and must meet a maximum insertion loss of 0.25 dB. Jumpers come in fixed lengths or can be ordered in custom lengths. LC jumpers are available with angled and reduced length cable support options for unique applications where space may be a constraint.
