Glasvezelconnector LC/LC bus/bus ShiverPeaks BS08-10203

The ShiverPeaks BS08-10203 is a fibre optic connector with an LC/LC female-to-female configuration in a bulkhead style. It provides a compact duplex interface for mating LC-terminated fibre cables through a panel or enclosure, enabling reliable optical connections in networking and telecommunication installations. The connector is intended to support standard single-mode or multimode LC ferrules and to maintain alignment and low insertion loss across the connection.

Advantages

This LC/LC female/female bulkhead connector offers a compact duplex footprint suitable for high-density patch panels and small form-factor enclosures. The bulkhead mounting secures the mating interface at a panel, improving cable management and mechanical stability. The LC connector type ensures precise ferrule alignment for consistent optical performance and low insertion loss. The female-to-female arrangement simplifies inline connections between two LC-terminated cable assemblies without the need for additional adapters.

Suitable for

• Connecting LC-terminated fibre optic patch cords through panels or rack-mounted enclosures
• High-density optical patch panels in data centres and telecommunications rooms
• Equipment cabinets and telecom distribution frames where bulkhead mounting is required
• Linking duplex fibre runs in network distribution and backbone segments

Key specifications

• Connector type: LC duplex (female/female)
• Mounting style: bulkhead/panel mount
• Compatibility: LC-terminated fibre ferrules (single-mode and multimode compatible)
• Interface format: duplex small form factor
• Typical optical characteristics: designed for low insertion loss and stable alignment (specific optical values depend on mating cables and system)

How to use

Install the bulkhead connector into the appropriate panel cutout or rack module and secure it according to the enclosure manufacturer's instructions. Insert LC-terminated fibre patch cords into each female LC port until they click into place, ensuring proper alignment of the duplex orientation. For removal, depress the connector latch on each LC plug and gently withdraw the patch cord. Confirm optical continuity and measure insertion loss using appropriate test equipment after installation.

Recommendations

Handle fibre ends and connectors with care to avoid contamination. Keep dust caps on unused ports and clean ferrules with proper cleaning tools before making connections. Use strain relief and cable management to prevent excessive stress on the connector and mating cables. Verify compatibility with single-mode or multimode systems prior to deployment and perform optical testing after installation.
