LX.5 Patchcord
The industry's most reliable small-form-factor fiber optic connector. Doubling capacity is easy with the LX.5. By allowing two fibers instead of one to fit into the standard SC adapter footprint, the LX.5 doubles the density of fiber termination equipment. The LX.5 was developed with carrier-class reliability to ensure network integrity. Available in simplex or duplex configurations, the LX.5 maintains single circuit access and incorporates safety shutters on both the connector and adapter body to provide protection from dust, dirt, and ferrule end-face handling damage. The connector also features a latching mechanism that effectively releases the connector from the adapter. Its user-friendly and intuitive design prevents cables from snagging at the back of the connector.
- Doubles the density; twice as many fiber connections
- Exactly half the size of the SC connector; adapter fits the SC footprint
- Shutters on both the adapter and connector
- Incorporates proven, reliable ceramic ferrules
- Available in singlemode and multimode versions
- Easy to convert between simplex and duplex connectors
