Fibre Optic Connector LC/LC Socket/Socket ShiverPeaks BS07-60003

The ShiverPeaks BS07-60003 LC/LC Female/Female fibre optic connector is designed for bulkhead mounting to provide a secure, low-loss connection between duplex LC-terminated fibre cables. This single-piece connector supports reliable optical signal transfer in structured cabling, telecommunications cabinets, patch panels and other network termination points. Supplied as one connector per pack, it is intended for straightforward installation where a compact, standardized LC duplex interface is required.

Advantages

This LC/LC female-to-female bulkhead connector offers a compact duplex interface that maintains alignment for low insertion loss and good return loss. Its standardized LC form factor ensures compatibility with common duplex fibre patch cables and adapters. The unit is suitable for single-mode and multimode systems that use LC terminations and is constructed to provide stable mechanical performance in rack, panel or wall-plate bulkhead applications.

Suitable for

• Connecting two LC duplex fibre patch cables through a bulkhead or panel
• Extending or joining fibre links in telecom cabinets and data centres
• Replacing or adding a single bulkhead coupling in structured cabling installations
• Small projects and field repairs where a single connector is required

Key specifications

• Connector type: Duplex LC female to LC female coupling
• Mounting: Bulkhead / panel mount
• Interface: LC duplex standard form factor
• Pack quantity: 1 unit per pack
• Compatibility: Works with LC-terminated fibre patch cords (single-mode and multimode, dependent on cable type)
• Application environment: Indoor telecom, data centre and structured cabling installations

How to use

Install the connector into a compatible bulkhead cut-out or panel aperture and secure it according to the panel’s mounting method. Insert LC duplex patch cables into each side of the coupler until they click into place, ensuring correct alignment of the connectors to minimise insertion loss. For removal, depress the LC latch on the patch cable and gently pull the connector out. Inspect fibre endfaces and clean according to standard fibre-optic cleaning procedures before making the connection to avoid contamination and signal degradation.

Recommendations

Use fibre cleaning tools and inspection equipment when connecting or reconnecting fibre patch cables. Verify that the connected cables match in fibre type (single-mode or multimode) to prevent performance issues. Avoid excessive bending or tension on cables near the bulkhead to preserve connection integrity.
