Indoor Dual-Core Fiber Optic Connector

Indoor Dual-Core Fiber Optic Connector

A duplex indoor fiber assembly that joins two simplex cords in a figure-eight profile for paired equipment and patching connections.

Product Features

  • Two joined simplex legs simplify duplex routing.
  • PVC or LSZH jacket options.
  • Flexible cable for patch cords and pigtails.
  • PC, UPC and APC single-mode end-face configurations.
  • Customer-specified connector combinations can be reviewed.

Indoor Dual-Core Fiber Optic Connector assemblies place two simplex fiber cords side by side in a figure-eight profile. The paired construction keeps transmit and receive fibers together while allowing each leg to terminate at the required optical port.

PVC and LSZH tight-buffer constructions are listed, with single-mode connector performance defined for PC, UPC and APC end faces. The source also includes multi-core mechanical data, so the final quotation should clearly distinguish a duplex cord from any higher-core cable requested.

Selection & Configuration

Confirm that a true two-fiber duplex assembly is required, then specify fiber grade, connector and polish on each leg, polarity, cable diameter, overall length and any zip-cord separation length. Equipment Tx/Rx mapping should be shown on the drawing.

Manufacturing & Customization

Huijue Group can manufacture OEM duplex assemblies from an end-to-end map or mating sample, with private-label tags and packaging. Cable color, connector mix, leg separation and test data are reviewed together; materials, tolerances and quantity remain subject to engineering confirmation.

Information for an Accurate Quotation

  • Fiber grade and duplex polarity
  • Connector/polish for each leg
  • Cable diameter, jacket and color
  • Overall and separation lengths
  • Labels, optical test and order quantity

2) Optical Performance Indicator Requirements for Multi-Mode Fiber Connectors

a) The insertion loss (including repeatability) of any plug connected to a standard plug via a standard adapter shall be ≤ 0.2dB.

b) The insertion loss of two plugs connected via a standard adapter shall be ≤ 0.3dB.

c) After various tests, the allowable variation of insertion loss shall be ≤ 0.2dB, and the variation of return loss shall be < 5dB.

Applications

  • Duplex transceiver links
  • Switch, router and media-converter patching
  • ODF-to-equipment interconnection
  • Indoor telecom and enterprise fiber channels

Installation Notes

Use in an indoor protected pathway appropriate to the selected jacket. Maintain paired-fiber polarity, avoid twisting the two legs and provide strain relief where the cable separates near the connectors.

Buyer Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers specific to Indoor Dual-Core Fiber Optic Connector selection, configuration and purchasing.

Is this the same as a multi-core trunk cable?

No. Its primary role is a paired two-fiber, figure-eight assembly. Higher-core constructions should be quoted as a separate approved cable design.

Can the two ends use different connector types?

Yes, a hybrid duplex assembly can be reviewed when both legs and the Tx/Rx polarity are shown clearly.
