Pre-Polished Fiber Optic Connectors
SPECIFICATION SHEET
specifications
LC small form factor (SFF) pre-polished connectors with rear pivot
latch shall be TIA/EIA-604 FOCIS-10 compatible and contain a
factory-terminated fiber, eliminating field polishing and adhesive.
LC pre-polished connectors shall have an average insertion loss
of 0.3dB per mated pair for multimode and singlemode fiber.
LC pre-polished connectors shall captivate fiber and buffer in one
action allowing for up to two re-terminations with no degradation
in performance.

key features and benefits
LC OptiCam
®
Connectors
Factory pre-polished fiber
stub endface
Eliminates inconsistent and time-consuming field polishing to deliver
required optical performance; reduces termination time (less than
half the time of field polish connectors) and the number of
installation tools required
Secures both the fiber and the buffer during the camming step to
facilitate consistent termination results; reduces the termination time
compared to conventional termination methods
Allows up to two re-terminations to achieve optimum termination
results; reduces the number of rejected connectors and terminations
to provide yield rates approaching 100% for lower installed costs

Integrated visual
Offers visual indication of proper termination after the cam step
termination indicator (VTI)
has been completed; virtually eliminates operator error to deliver
a lower installed cost
applications
LC fiber optic connectors are widely used in fiber
optic backbone and horizontal applications for
high-speed data transmission. Typical
applications for LC OptiCam
®
Connectors
include maintenance or emergency restoration of
fiber networks and retrofit/initial install in both
behind-the-wall (BTW) and in the permanent side
of panelized interconnect and cross-connect.
LC OptiCam
®
Connectors eliminate the need for
end face polishing and adhesive providing easier,
faster installation, especially in remote areas
and confined spaces. The hand-held OptiCam
®
Termination Tool gives installers the flexibility
to terminate in very close proximity to the
application without having to switch tools
or find benchtop space.
