Bulgin launches rugged fibre optic LC Duplex connector
Bulgin is launching a rugged duplex LC fibre optic connector specialised for use in harsh environments. The 6000 Series Fibre LC Duplex connector contains an additional optical fibre connection for applications where separate transmit and receive cables are required. In comparison to a simplex optical fibre cable and connector, the additional glass fibre on the duplex cable can also be used as a built-in obsolescence in mission-critical applications, or to double the data transmission capabilities where required.
Like the popular 4000 Series LC Simplex connector which was launched by Bulgin earlier this year, the 6000 Series LC Duplex connector is well suited for outdoor television broadcast, FTTX (fibre to the x), server room engineering, civil engineering, aviation and rail applications. With very low insertion loss (average:
With its IP69K and IP68-rated sealing caps, the connector provides protection against dirt and water ingress (fully submersed up to 2 weeks at 10m). In addition, the Mil-Tac quality cable ensures the connector is suitable for any type of harsh environment where deployment and retrieval for reuse may be required.
Featuring a secure 30 degree twist-lock connection, the 6000 Series Fibre LC Duplex connector accommodates durable mechanical mating. The rugged housing is made from thermo-resistant plastic and measures 32mm in diameter and a maximum of 78.4mm in length.
The connector is offered either with pre-assembled patch cords or assembly kits for termination in the field. Kits are also available for inline and chassis connectors in order to build the sealed harsh-environment connector around a standard LC duplex interface.
