StarTech LOOPBACKLCLC00DB LC/UPC Single Mode Fiber Loopback Test Plug
Overview
The StarTech LOOPBACKLCLC00DB is a low-loss (0dB) single-mode fiber optic loopback plug designed for precise baseline testing and diagnostics of network equipment. It terminates a single-mode OS2 fiber optic cable with an LC/UPC connector, allowing you to send and receive signals within the same port. This is critical for verifying the integrity of network interfaces, transceivers (like SFPs), and patch panels without requiring a full network link. Its compact form factor makes it suitable for dense installations where port access is limited.
Compatibility
This loopback plug is compatible with all network devices featuring LC/UPC single-mode fiber ports. This includes, but is not limited to, network switches, routers, firewalls, media converters, and Network Interface Cards (NICs) that utilize OS2 fiber optic connections. It is designed to meet industry standards for fiber optic testing, ensuring interoperability with a wide range of commercial and enterprise networking hardware.
Installation Notes
The plug features an LC/UPC connector, requiring a clean port for optimal performance. It is rated for 1,000 testing cycles, providing durability for frequent use. The operating and storage temperature range is -40°C to 75°C, making it suitable for deployment in various environmental conditions, including those found in telecommunications closets or industrial settings. The ABS housing ensures durability.
