InLine 89989S Fibre Optic Adapter, LC/LC Simplex Singlemode, Green, Ceramic Ferrule

The InLine 89989S is a high-quality fibre optic adapter designed for reliable network connectivity. This LC/LC Simplex singlemode adapter features a precision ceramic ferrule, ensuring low insertion loss and high durability. It is designed to provide a secure and stable connection for singlemode fibre networks in professional environments.

Advantages

This adapter features an integrated laser safety shutter that provides additional protection on unused ports by preventing unintended light emission. The inclusion of a high-precision ceramic sleeve ensures optimal alignment of the optical fibres, which effectively minimises signal attenuation and improves overall transmission quality. Furthermore, the robust housing is constructed from flame-retardant material compliant with UL 94V0 standards, while the integrated metal mounting bracket ensures a secure and stable installation within standard SC simplex cut-outs.

Suitable for

• Data centre network infrastructures
• Backbone cabling in office buildings
• Telecommunications systems
• FTTH (Fibre to the Home) installations

When it may not be suitable

This adapter is specifically designed for singlemode fibre optic connections and is not compatible with multimode fibre cables. Using it with incorrect fibre types will result in significant signal loss and connection failure.

Key specifications

• Connector type: LC/LC Simplex
• Fibre mode: Singlemode
• Sleeve material: Ceramic
• Housing material: Flame-retardant PC (UL 94V0)
• Mounting: Metal bracket for SC simplex cut-outs
• Safety feature: Internal laser shutter
• Colour: Green

How to use

To install the adapter, insert it into a compatible SC simplex cut-out on your patch panel or wall outlet until the metal bracket clicks into place. Once mounted, carefully clean the connectors of your LC singlemode patch cables according to industry standards. Insert the LC connectors into the adapter ports until you hear a secure click. The internal shutter will automatically retract upon insertion of the connector and close when the connector is removed.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your existing patch panel or housing supports SC simplex cut-outs.
• Ensure that your network infrastructure requires singlemode connectivity.
• Check the required quantity based on the number of fibre ports needed for your installation.

Usage recommendations

Always ensure that fibre optic connectors are clean and free of dust before insertion to maintain optimal signal integrity and prevent damage to the ceramic sleeve.
