Description
LC Connector Type and Advantages
LC (Lucent Connector) is a small form factor (SFF) fiber optic connector type that is commonly used in high-speed data communication applications. The 845398-B21 HPE 25GB SFP28 100m LC Multimode Fiber Transceiver Module uses the LC connector type for transmitting and receiving optical signals between the transceiver module and the fiber optic cable.
The LC connector type is smaller than other connector types, such as SC and ST, and is designed for high-density applications. Its small size allows for more ports to be fitted onto a single device or panel, which makes it a popular choice for use in data centers and other environments where space is limited. Additionally, the LC connector type is easy to install and maintain, and its snap-in design ensures a secure connection.
The LC connector type is also known for its low insertion loss and high return loss, which helps to minimize signal attenuation and maximize signal strength. This makes it ideal for use in high-speed data communication applications, where signal quality is critical. Furthermore, the LC connector type is compatible with both singlemode and multimode fiber optic cables, which makes it a versatile connector type that can be used in a wide range of applications.
The LC connector type used in the 845398-B21 HPE 25GB SFP28 100m LC Multimode Fiber Transceiver Module offers several advantages, including its small size, high-density capabilities, easy installation and maintenance, low insertion loss and high return loss, and compatibility with both singlemode and multimode fiber optic cables. These advantages make it a popular choice for use in high-speed data communication applications, particularly in data centers and other environments where space is limited.
Connecting the Transceiver Module to Fiber Optic Cables
The 845398-B21 HPE 25GB SFP28 100m LC Multimode Fiber Transceiver Module is designed to transmit and receive optical signals over fiber optic cables using the LC connector type. Connecting the transceiver module to the fiber optic cables involves several steps:
- Ensure that the fiber optic cables are properly terminated with LC connectors on both ends. The LC connectors should be inspected for any signs of damage or contamination, such as scratches, cracks, or dust.
- Remove the protective caps from the LC connectors on both ends of the fiber optic cables.
- Insert the LC connectors on the fiber optic cables into the LC receptacles on the transceiver module. The LC connectors should be inserted straight into the receptacles until they click into place.
- Secure the LC connectors in place by tightening the screws on the transceiver module. This will ensure a stable and reliable connection between the transceiver module and the fiber optic cables.
- Verify that the transceiver module is properly installed and functioning by checking the status lights on the device. The status lights will indicate whether the transceiver module is receiving and transmitting optical signals over the fiber optic cables.
It is important to note that the 845398-B21 HPE transceiver module is designed to work with multimode fiber optic cables that support a distance of up to 100 meters. It is recommended to use only HPE-approved fiber optic cables to ensure compatibility and optimal performance. Additionally, it is important to follow proper handling and installation procedures when working with fiber optic cables, as they are sensitive to damage from bending, twisting, and other mechanical stresses.
