4 × LC–LC precision couplers and 2 × LC photodiode receiver adapters with protective boots
Protective semi-rigid pouch with internal compartments for organized storage
Precision ceramic ferrules and alignment sleeves for low insertion loss
Receiver boots to protect photodiode interfaces and preserve cleanliness
Jacket options: PVC (standard) or LSZH (optional) for site compliance
RoHS-compliant materials

The FT III/IV – LC SM 9/125µm Cable & Adapter Kit is engineered for single-mode field testing with FiberTEK III and FiberTEK IV platforms, delivering a complete set of LC patch cords and receiver adapters for immediate deployment. The kit contains six factory-terminated LC–LC single-mode patch cords and two LC–SC single-mode patch cords, assembled using 9/125 µm fiber and precision-polished connectors to provide consistent optical performance and dependable measurement repeatability. Included LC–LC couplers and photodiode receiver adapters extend compatibility with a variety of instrument ports and legacy equipment, ensuring technicians can connect, measure, and verify single-mode links without delay.

Housed in a rugged, semi-rigid pouch, the kit is built for portability and field durability. Connector ferrules and alignment sleeves are precision-matched to minimize insertion loss and preserve end-face integrity; the receiver adapters are fitted with protective boots to shield photodiode interfaces from dust and impact. Clear labeling and an organized layout reduce setup time and the risk of cross-connection, enabling fast, accurate certification, troubleshooting, and maintenance workflows for single-mode fiber networks.
