Fibre optic connector LC BTR NETCOM 1509QAJO002C-E

The BTR NETCOM 1509QAJO002C-E is an LC-type fibre optic connector designed for single-mode OS2 fibre networks. Supplied in a pack of 20 and finished in blue, this connector provides the standard LC form factor for high-density terminations and patching in data centre, telecom and enterprise cabling environments. It is intended for use where precise optical alignment and consistent low insertion loss are required.

Advantages

The connector offers a compact LC footprint that supports high-density panel and cassette installations while maintaining stable optical performance. Its ceramic ferrule and polished endface ensure repeatable low insertion loss and good return loss characteristics suitable for OS2 single-mode fibre. The blue housing provides visual identification for single-mode connections and the modular LC design simplifies termination and replacement in patch panels and equipment.

Suitable for (tasks / use cases)

• High-density fibre patch panels and adapter panels
• Telecommunications rooms and data centre backbone links
• Single-mode OS2 fibre splicing enclosures and pigtail terminations
• Equipment connections where LC interfaces are required

Key specifications

• Connector type: LC (small form factor)
• Fibre type compatibility: single-mode OS2
• Colour: blue (industry colour for single-mode)
• Pack quantity: 20 pieces
• Ferrule material: ceramic (zirconia) for accurate alignment
• Typical applications: patching, terminations, high-density installations

How to use

Prepare the single-mode fibre according to standard fibre handling and stripping procedures, ensuring a clean, properly cleaved fibre end. Install the LC connector following the manufacturer’s termination instructions for adhesive or mechanical attachment methods if applicable. After assembly, clean the ferrule endface with appropriate fibre-grade cleaning materials and inspect with a fibre microscope to verify endface condition and alignment. Test the assembled connection with an optical power meter and light source or an optical loss test set to confirm acceptable insertion loss and return loss for the intended link.

Usage recommendations

Handle connectors using clean, lint-free gloves or finger cots and always keep protective caps on unused connectors to prevent contamination. Store in a dry, dust-free environment at moderate temperatures. When replacing connectors in active systems, follow standard work practices to avoid bending the fibre beyond recommended bend radii and to maintain link performance.
