Fiber Optic Connectors

The 1-5501380-6 fiber optic connector is a top-of-the-line interconnect designed and manufactured by Amphenol Corporation. It is an LC-duplex fiber optic connector using two fibers to create a secure and reliable connection between communication equipment and optical fiber. This connector is especially suitable for datacom, telecom, broadcast, premise wiring, and industrial applications, among others.

Application Field

The 1-5501380-6 connector is suitable for high-frequency communications in various application fields. It is particularly useful for datacom, telecom, and broadcast applications, such as for network connections within buildings, relaying signals over long distances, or providing a secure and reliable connection between different communication systems. It is also useful in premise wiring applications, such as running cables between buildings, providing interconnects for security systems, or connecting different end-user communication devices. In addition, the connector can be used in industrial applications, such as connecting different machines or providing communications between different factory components, e.g. an assembly line.

Working Principle

The 1-5501380-6 connector is designed to provide a secure, reliable connection between two fibers. It utilizes a “push-pull” mechanism that is both user-friendly and efficient. The connector consists of two plugs with a small cable between them. The two plugs are mated together, establishing the connection between the two fibers. The mated plugs create a “male” end (the connector) and a “female” end (the port).When connecting the two plugs, the user simply pushes down on the male end, while lightly pulling the female end. This creates a secure “fit” between the two plugs, effectively locking them in place, and creating a reliable connection between the two fibers. The connector has an additional “snip” feature, where the user can snap off the female end, creating a single plug that can be used in tight spaces.

Conclusion

The 1-5501380-6 connector is a state-of-the-art interconnect solution for various fiber optic applications. It is suitable for use in datacom, telecom, broadcast, premise wiring, and industrial applications, and utilizes a reliable “push-pull” mechanism to ensure a secure connection between the two fibers. Its additional “snap-off” feature adds further convenience in tight spaces. The connector is a cost-effective solution and a great addition to any fiber optic network.
