Fibre Optic Connector LC Male Corning 95-050-99-X

The Corning LC Male fibre optic connector 95-050-99-X is designed for OM4 multimode fibre networks. It provides a compact interface for high-speed data transmission and is intended for use where low insertion loss and reliable mating are required. The connector's form factor and mechanical precision make it suitable for dense patch panels, transceivers and fibre assemblies in both commercial and residential network installations.

Advantages

This LC Male connector offers low insertion loss and stable optical performance when used with OM4 fibre, supporting high bandwidth and short-latency links. Its compact footprint allows for high-density port configurations, while a standardized ferrule and precision-polished end face ensure consistent mating with compatible connectors. The connector is designed for straightforward installation and alignment in typical patching and termination workflows.

Suitable for

• High-speed multimode LAN and data centre links using OM4 fibre
• Patching panels and transceiver connections in telecommunications closets
• Fibre optic assemblies and pre-terminated cable systems
• Server rooms and residential gigabit fibre installations

Key specifications

• Connector type: LC Male
• Compatible fibre type: OM4 multimode
• Typical insertion loss: optimized for low loss with OM4 fibres
• Polish/type: precision polished ferrule end face for reliable mating
• Housing: compact form factor for high-density applications
• Application environment: indoor/controlled-environment data and telecom use

How to use

Prepare the OM4 fibre according to standard termination or assembly procedures, ensuring correct stripping, cleaning and cleaving of the fibre prior to connectorization. Insert the fibre into the connector following the manufacturer's termination instructions and verify fibre alignment and polish quality. After assembly, test the connection with appropriate optical test equipment to confirm insertion loss and return loss meet system requirements. When patching, align the LC Male with the corresponding LC Female receptacle until a positive latch is felt.

Usage recommendations

Handle the connector with clean hands and use lint-free wipes and approved isopropyl alcohol for end-face cleaning. Store connectors in protective caps when not connected to prevent contamination and physical damage. Ensure connectors are used with OM4-rated fibre and complementary components to achieve expected performance levels.
