LC Simplex Singlemode Field-Terminable Plug
The TE Connectivity 6828095-1 is an LC simplex plug designed for singlemode fiber optic terminations. It accepts a 2.0mm cable diameter and terminates with a zirconia ferrule for precise core alignment. The latch lock fastening provides positive retention in the mating adapter, and the blue boot and housing color are standard for singlemode LC connectors. Rated for 300 mating cycles, this plug is suited for field-installable or factory-terminated patch cords in data center, telecom, and premise cabling environments where singlemode performance is required.
Optical Performance and Mechanical Fit
This plug delivers a typical attenuation of -0.75dB and a reflection of -30dB, meeting the loss budgets for most singlemode links up to 10 km or more. The 300 mating cycle rating supports repeated reconnections in patch panels or test equipment without degrading optical performance. The free-hanging (in-line) mount and strain relief accommodate cable routing in trays or enclosures where a panel-mount jack is not used.
Materials and Environmental Range
The zirconia ferrule resists wear over the 300-cycle life. A dust cap is included to protect the ferrule when unmated. The blue boot and housing are industry-standard identifiers for singlemode LC connectors, reducing the risk of mismatch with multimode adapters.
