LC (Lucent Connector) uniboot connector is an innovative solution that provides high reliability, repeatability, flexibility and durability, low insertion loss and back reflection, ease of assembly and use, space-saving design, and reduces cable management troubles in high-density, interconnect, and cross-connect applications. Continue reading this article to discover more about LC uniboot connector types.
Types of LC Uniboot Connectors
1) LC Standard Clip Uniboot Connector: It has a suncall flat clip LC feature, which provides additional space between connectors and improves airflow. Uniboot design allows one cable to carry two fibers, reducing the cable bulk when routing.
2) LC Flat Clip Uniboot Connector: The LC uniboot patch cord has a flat clip feature, which creates extra space between connectors. This unique design offers improved heat dissipation and minimizes the risk of overheating, ensuring optimal performance and reliability. Additionally, its reverse-polarity design allows quick and easy polarity conversion without exposing the fibers or needing any tools.
3) LC Push-Pull Tab Uniboot Connector: The LC push-pull tab uniboot patch cord allows quick plug without tools in high-density space. Using a convenient and sturdy push-pull tab, LC uniboot connectors can easily be inserted and removed from high-density cabling without special tooling.
4) LC Flat Clip Uniboot with Push Pull Boot Connector: It has a sturdy push-pull boot design, which allows quick plug without tools in high-density space. Stackable connector engages/disengages easily from densely loaded panels.
5) LC Switchable Uniboot Connector: LC switchable uniboot patch cords have a unique design that allows switching polarity without using any tools. It is suitable in data centers, where cable counts are high, and space is limited.
6) LC Secure Keyed Uniboot Connector: It provides mechanical network security for organizations desiring to segregate networks due to privacy or security concerns. It can prevent improper connection of separate networks with access points. The connectors can only be removed with a matching color extraction tool. A unique key feature allows mating only to a similar color-keyed adapter.
VSFF Uniboot Connectors
The VSFF (Very Small Form Factor) connector has a smaller size than traditional LC fiber optic connectors, allowing for greater port density and optimized space utilization. It uses a push-pull mechanism for easy insertion and removal. Despite its small size, the VSFF connector offers reliable performance and low signal loss, ensuring efficient and high-quality optical connectivity. VSFF connectors are available in different types:
(1) MDC Uniboot Connector: It is a VSFF duplex optical connector and uses 1.25mm ceramic ferrule technology. The push-pull boot can easily be inserted and removed from high-density cabling without special tooling. Stackable connectors engage/disengage easily from densely loaded panels.
(2) CS Push-Pull Uniboot Connector: It is a VSFF duplex optical connector and uses 1.25mm ceramic ferrule technology. The Push-pull tab allows quick plugging without tools in high-density space. It is suitable for high-density fiber patching in 200/400/800G data centers.
(3) SN Uniboot Connector: It is a VSFF duplex optical connector and uses 1.25mm ceramic ferrule technology. Thus, it supports the next-generation 100/200/400G/800G transceivers.
Applications
LC uniboot connectors are used in data centers, fiber optic transceivers, telecommunications, FTTH, FTTA, 5G, CATV / CCTV, LAN, medical, government, defense, etc.
Conclusion
LC uniboot connectors improve the flexibility of cable management while saving a lot of space to meet the various needs of data centers. Different connectors have different features to meet your needs in various application scenarios.
