86052 Datasheet, PDF (1/2 Pages) Molex Electronics Ltd. – LC Loopback Assemblies

Optical LC Loopback assemblies offer a rugged and compact test
solution
Molex’s family of LC Loopback assemblies provides a stable and convenient
means for testing optical SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggable) and SFF (Small Form
Factor) devices in numerous applications. The rugged and compact design of the
Loopback assembly incorporates a contoured grip/handle which allows for easy
installation and removal. A durable thumb latch and a compact size allows for
installation in ganged and belly-to-belly applications with no interference. Molex
Loopback assemblies are available in singlemode, multimode 50/125µm and
multimode 62.5/125µm fiber sizes.
Loopback assemblies are only sold as assemblies.
Features and Benefits
■ Protected fiber loop prevents damage to fiber during use and handling
between uses
■ Contoured housing / handle provides a secure handle for easy insertion and
removal of the assembly
■ Available with singlemode or multimode fiber which provides a solution for
equipment used with any type of fiber installed
■ Compact size easily works in individual, ganged or belly-to-belly applications
without interference
■ Shorter than a standard LC connector to allow for ample panel-to-door
clearance
■ Attenuated versions are available allowing use with higher power
transceivers to eliminate detector saturation or simulate a longer fiber path
(network testing)

LC Loopback assemblies do not have fiber coming out from the back. The fiber is
looped inside the connector housing.
