FLCSSCBUYG Fiber Optic Connector Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The FLCSSCBUYG is a Fiber Optic Connector manufactured by Panduit Corp, classified as a Simplex LC OptiCam connector. This part is currently listed with Obsolete product status. Due to its obsolete classification, sourcing original inventory becomes increasingly difficult. Identifying active equivalent parts ensures continuity in system design, maintenance, and component availability for applications requiring LC Simplex fiber optic connectivity.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the FLCSSCBUYG is determined by the following critical parameters that must align between the obsolete part and its active equivalent:

Connector Architecture Parameters:

• Connector Style: LC
• Connector Type: Plug
• Simplex/Duplex Configuration: Simplex
• Mode: Singlemode

Physical Specifications:

• Fiber Core Diameter: 9µm
• Fiber Cladding Diameter: 125µm
• Cable Diameter: 0.9mm
• Mounting Type: Free Hanging (In-Line)
• Fastening Type: Latch Lock

Performance Characteristics:

• Attenuation: -0.1dB (Typical)
• Reflection: -50dB

Material Composition:

• Housing Material: Plastic
• Ferrule Material: Zirconia, Ceramic
• Body Material: Plastic

The substitute part FLCSSCBUY maintains identical specifications across all critical parameters, ensuring functional and mechanical compatibility with applications originally designed for the FLCSSCBUYG.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The FLCSSCBUY serves as the direct active equivalent for the obsolete FLCSSCBUYG. Selection of FLCSSCBUY is based on the following engineering criteria:

Product Status Alignment: FLCSSCBUY maintains Active product status, ensuring ongoing manufacturer support, availability, and compliance with current regulatory requirements. The FLCSSCBUYG, classified as Obsolete, presents supply chain risk and potential discontinuation of technical support.

Regulatory Compliance: FLCSSCBUY carries EAR99 ECCN classification and REACH Unaffected status, confirming compliance with current export control and chemical substance regulations. These certifications support deployment in regulated environments and international applications.

Functional Equivalence: All critical fiber optic connector parameters—including LC Simplex configuration, 9µm core diameter, 125µm cladding diameter, singlemode operation, and performance specifications (−0.1dB attenuation, −50dB reflection)—are identical between the obsolete and active parts.

Physical Compatibility: Mechanical specifications including cable diameter (0.9mm), mounting type (Free Hanging In-Line), fastening mechanism (Latch Lock), and material composition (Plastic housing, Zirconia/Ceramic ferrule) are fully preserved in the substitute part.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can FLCSSCBUY directly replace FLCSSCBUYG in existing installations?

A: Yes. FLCSSCBUY is functionally and mechanically equivalent to FLCSSCBUYG across all specified parameters. The connector style, fiber specifications, performance characteristics, and physical dimensions are identical, enabling direct substitution without system redesign.

Q: What is the primary reason for substituting FLCSSCBUYG?

A: FLCSSCBUYG carries Obsolete product status, which restricts availability and manufacturer support. FLCSSCBUY is an Active product from the same manufacturer and series, providing assured supply and ongoing technical support.

Q: Are there differences in packaging between these parts?

A: FLCSSCBUYG packaging information is not specified in available documentation. FLCSSCBUY is supplied in Box packaging. Confirm packaging requirements with your procurement specification.

Q: Do these connectors meet the same performance standards?

A: Yes. Both parts exhibit identical attenuation (−0.1dB typical) and reflection (−50dB) characteristics, confirming equivalent optical performance in singlemode fiber applications.

Q: What is the OptiCam® series designation?

A: OptiCam® is the Panduit product series classification for both FLCSSCBUYG and FLCSSCBUY. This series designation indicates compatibility within the OptiCam® connector ecosystem.

Q: Are there any regulatory differences between these parts?

A: FLCSSCBUY carries current regulatory classifications (EAR99 ECCN, REACH Unaffected status), while FLCSSCBUYG is classified as Obsolete. For applications subject to export control or chemical substance regulations, FLCSSCBUY provides current compliance documentation.

Q: What is the base product number for these connectors?

A: The base product number is FLCSSC. Both FLCSSCBUYG and FLCSSCBUY derive from this base designation, with suffix variations indicating specific configurations within the LC Simplex Singlemode product line.
