LC Connector for Polymer Coated Fiber (PCF) Industrial Fiber Cables S P E C I F I C AT I O N S H E E T technical information Small form-factor simplex or duplex LC connectors are designed for use with graded index, OM1 and OM2, Polymer Coated Fiber (PCF), and are qualified to the general requirements of TIA 568-C.3. Panduit field installable LC connectors attach to the large diameter PCF fiber using simple-to-learn and easy to use Panduit strip, crimp, and cleave attachment tools. Panduit LC connectors for PCF fiber contain a unique push-pull mechanism which is attached to the strain relief boot. Connectors are engaged or disengaged from an INF-8074i (LC) compliant SFP transceiver by pushing or pulling on the connector strain relief boot. This makes fiber connections easier and more reliable inside of a control panel or a difficult to reach area located in machines. application Provides easily terminated, equipment-level (direct-attach) fiber optic connections in industrial networks with minimal installer training. For use with Panduit Opti-Core™ IndustrialNet™ Graded Index (OM1 and OM2) PCF Fiber in zip cord and well-built breakout cable configurations. construction mechanical properties Interface standards: Cable retention strength (per TIA 455-6) 22.2N @ 0° with 0.5dB max. increase in insertion loss Vibration (per GR-326 CORE 4.4.3.1) 1.5mm amplitude continuously sweeping frequency from 10-55Hz for 2 hrs. in each of 3 mutually perpendicular axis with IL limited to 0.5dB max.
