Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The FLCSMC6BLY is the direct active substitute for the obsolete FLCSMC6BLYG. Selection of this substitute is based on the following engineering criteria:

Product Lifecycle Status: The FLCSMC6BLYG is designated Obsolete, indicating discontinued manufacturing and end-of-life status. The FLCSMC6BLY maintains Active product status with current manufacturing support from Panduit Corp.

Functional Equivalence: Both components share identical connector architecture, fiber specifications, and performance characteristics. The LC Simplex Plug configuration, 62.5/125µm multimode fiber specifications, and performance metrics (-0.3dB attenuation, -20dB reflection) are identical across both parts.

Regulatory Compliance: Both components maintain equivalent compliance postures with REACH Unaffected status and Not applicable RoHS classification. The FLCSMC6BLY carries EAR99 ECCN designation, appropriate for active commercial distribution.

Mechanical and Material Compatibility: Identical housing materials (Plastic), ferrule materials (Zirconia, Ceramic), mounting configuration (Free Hanging In-Line), and fastening mechanism (Latch Lock) ensure direct mechanical interchangeability in existing installations.

Inventory and Supply Chain: While the FLCSMC6BLYG maintains current inventory (851 Pcs), the FLCSMC6BLY (839 Pcs) provides ongoing supply assurance through active manufacturing channels.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can FLCSMC6BLY directly replace FLCSMC6BLYG in existing installations?

A: Yes. The FLCSMC6BLY is a direct functional and mechanical equivalent. All connector specifications, fiber parameters, and performance characteristics are identical. The components are interchangeable without modification to existing fiber optic systems.

Q: What is the primary reason for substitution?

A: The FLCSMC6BLYG is Obsolete and no longer manufactured. The FLCSMC6BLY is the Active equivalent from the same manufacturer and product line, ensuring continued availability and support.
