Product Overview

LC (Ref 362) is part of the face plate range built by Ever Expresslink Limited in Ningbo, China. It is built on the LC (Lucent Connector) interface.

Small form-factor transceivers are built around it, so LC is what a data-center or an access switch presents to you whether you wanted it or not. The latch is small and breaks if the cord is pulled sideways out of a dense panel. Use a boot or a push-pull tab on panels packed to 48 ports and above.

It is one of 11 items in this range. A typical application is fiber to the desk in an office fit-out. What the range is built to give you there: finishes that sit alongside standard electrical accessories.

The problem it addresses is adapter formats that cannot be changed without replacing the plate. A practical note that applies across this range: tighten fixing screws evenly so the plate sits flat. Specifications for a particular configuration are confirmed on the quotation rather than assumed from the designation.

FAQ

Questions About LC (Ref 362)

What do you need from us to quote LC (Ref 362)?

The quantity, the destination and anything that has to match on your side: connector and polish at each end, fiber mode and core size, and length where the item is an assembly. If you are matching a part you already buy, send the sample and we will quote against it.

Can LC (Ref 362) be supplied with a different connector interface?

Yes. LC (Lucent Connector) is what this designation carries, and the same family is stocked across the other mainstream connector standards. Tell us the port you have to mate with and we will confirm the equivalent part.

Which wall box standards are supported?

Plates are available in 86 type and in international formats. Measure the installed wall box before ordering, because plate format is the item most often got wrong on a retrofit.

Can the adapter type be changed later?

On snap-in versions, yes. The adapter can be swapped without replacing the plate, which is useful when equipment changes from SC to LC during a refresh.

Is there room for a service loop behind the plate?

There is space designed for a loop within the fiber's bend radius, but it depends on the wall box depth. Deep boxes are strongly preferred for fiber outlets.
