BS EN 50377-7-2:2004

What is BS EN 50377-7-2- LC-PC duplex connector set about? 

BS EN 50377-7-2 is an international standard that discusses the connector sets and interconnecting components to be used in optical fibre communication systems. 

BS EN 50377-7-2 contains the initial, start of life dimensional, optical, mechanical, and environmental performance requirements that a terminated and assembled single-mode resilient alignment sleeve LC-PC duplex connector set (plug/adaptor/plug) must meet for it to be categorised as a European Standard product. 

BS EN 50377-7-2 gives product marking details since different variants and grades of performance are permitted. 

Who is BS EN 50377-7-2- LC-PC duplex connector set for?  

BS EN 50377-7-2 on LC-PC duplex connector, category B1.1 single-mode fibre is relevant to: 

• Manufacturers of LC-PC duplex connector 
• Designers of LC-PC duplex connector 
• Suppliers and exporters of LC-PC duplex connector 
• Manufacturers of connector sets and interconnect components

Why should you use BS EN 50377-7-2- LC-PC duplex connector set? 

The LC-PC duplex connector is a single position plug connector set of plug adaptor plug configuration characterised by cylindrical, spring-loaded butting ferrules of 1.25 mm nominal diameter and a latched push-pull coupling mechanism.  

BS EN 50377-7-2 specifies the plug features which consist of a cylindrical zirconia ceramic ferrule and a latched push-pull mechanism. It has a single male key which is used to limit and is used to orientate, the relative rotation between mated connectors.  BS EN 50377-7-2 provides information for a cover (dust cap) that protects the ferrule end face when the connector is in unmated condition. The adaptor provided by BS EN 50377-7-2 has a zirconia ceramic resilient alignment sleeve. The mounting style of the adaptor is a duplex rectangular flange equipped with snap-latches.  BS EN 50377-7-2 presents you with the dimensional requirements as they are necessary to ensure intermate ability of the connectors, in accordance with the global standards.  BS EN 50377-7-2 helps in the positioning of the fibre core. BS EN 50377-7-2 gives you detailed test specifications that help you verify the performance characteristics of the LC-PC duplex connector sets. 

BS EN 50377-7-2 states the colour and marking of the product in accordance with the standard EN 186 000-1 in the following order of precedence: 

• Identification of manufacturer 
• Manufacturing date code- year/week 
• Manufacturer's part number 
• Variant identification number 

BS EN 50377-7-2 assists with the technical specifications of the product which helps you to expand your business globally.
