## Summary description

Alantec FOA-LC-SMQ is a singlemode (SM) fiber optic adapter with a quad LC configuration that provides connection and alignment for four LC singlemode fiber ports. Designed for patch panels, fiber enclosures and rack installations, it enables reliable mating of LC connectors, low insertion loss and stable signal transmission in singlemode networks used for telecom, data center and FTTH applications.

## Long description

Alantec FOA-LC-SMQ is a singlemode fiber optic adapter in a quad LC configuration designed to connect and align four LC singlemode fiber ports. It is intended for use in patch panels, fiber enclosures and rack-mounted installations where compact, high-density connections are required. The adapter facilitates consistent mating of LC connectors, supports low insertion loss and contributes to stable signal transmission in singlemode networks used in telecommunications, data centers and FTTH (fiber-to-the-home) deployments.
Advantages
The quad LC singlemode adapter offers a compact, space-saving solution for high-density fiber terminations. Its precision alignment sleeves ensure accurate connector mating and reduced insertion loss, while durable housing provides mechanical stability in rack and panel environments. The design is compatible with standard LC singlemode connectors, enabling straightforward integration into existing fiber infrastructures and minimizing connection variability across multiple ports.
Suitable for
High-density patch panels and fiber distribution frames
Rack-mounted fiber enclosures and splice cabinets
Data center backbone and interconnect links
FTTH termination points and residential fiber outlets
Telecommunications and enterprise singlemode networks
Key specifications
Fiber type: singlemode (SM)
Connector interface: LC quad configuration (four LC ports)
Function: adapter for connection and alignment of LC singlemode connectors
Installation locations: patch panels, fiber enclosures, rack installations
Performance characteristics: engineered for low insertion loss and stable optical transmission
How to use
Install the adapter into the designated cutout or panel slot in a patch panel or fiber enclosure according to the chassis or panel manufacturer’s instructions. Insert LC singlemode connectors into the adapter ports until they click into position, ensuring correct orientation and secure seating. For multiport connections, route and manage fiber cables to avoid bending below minimum bend radius and to reduce strain on the connector interfaces. Verify optical continuity and measure insertion loss with appropriate test equipment after installation.
Usage recommendations
To maintain optimal performance, keep connector endfaces clean and inspect them with a microscope before mating. Use dust caps when ports are not in use and follow established fiber handling practices to prevent contamination and mechanical damage.
