Features and Benefits
•
Half the size of standard connectors:
doubles fiber density in shelves and
outlets - lowering system cost
•
RJ-45 style push/pull housing:
allows easy disengagement in dense
spaces
•
Polarized: helps assures high
repeatability, maintains transmit/
receive direction
•
Pull-proof: maintains optical contact
under loads and helps prevent
accidental disconnects
•
PC finish: helps minimize
transmission problems, optimizes
optical contact
•
Anti-snag latch: improves durability
and reduces cross connect
rearrangement effort

Product Description
OFS offers an extensive line of LC fiber optic jumpers. Included in the offering are both
simplex and duplex jumpers as well as hybrids and pigtails.
The LC Unibody
®
Connector used on the LC Patchcords has a trigger mechanism that
allows the connector to be easily engaged and disengaged. This trigger also prevents
the plug from snagging when jumper cables are being routed. On multimode duplex
jumpers, the trigger also allows the two plugs to be simultaneously disengaged.
The LC Jumpers are available in 1.6, 2.0, and 3.0 mm diameter cordage. The smallest
in the industry, the 1.6 mm cordage allows greater jumper density in a fully loaded frame
and prevents congestion in overhead racks. A duplex jumper made from a figure-eight
MiniCord
®
Cordage does not require a bulky bifurcation joint thereby saving space in the
frame. The duplex MiniCord jumper can be peeled apart with ease so that two cords can
be installed as one, then easily separated into two, saving time and effort. Single-mode
cordage uses OFS’ AllWave
®
FLEX Fiber providing excellent bend loss performance.
The bend radius allows jumpers to be installed in spaces with limited maneuverability or
around sharp corners.
Jumpers are tested and must meet a maximum insertion loss of 0.25 dB. Jumpers come
in fixed lengths or can be ordered in custom lengths. LC jumpers are available with
angled and reduced length cable support options for unique applications where space
may be a constraint.
