Duplex LC/UPC Female-to-Female Fibre Keystone Coupler

Join two duplex LC fibre patch cables through a keystone wall plate or patch panel while maintaining precise alignment and low insertion loss across single-mode and multimode networks.

Broad fibre compatibility

Works with OS1/OS2 single-mode and OM1 through OM5 multimode LC/UPC fibre cabling.

Low-loss alignment

Ceramic inner sleeves align the fibres precisely, with specified insertion loss below 0.2dB.

Tool-free keystone fit

Snap the ABS coupler into a compatible keystone opening in a wall plate or patch panel.

What to know

This coupler is for duplex LC connectors with UPC-polished ends. Confirm that both patch leads use compatible fibre type, polarity and optical specifications for the network equipment.
