Leviton Telcom 41086-LLI Duplex Lc Fiber Adapter OM3 OM4

Product Description

The LEVITON TELCOM 41086-LLI is a duplex LC shuttered fiber optic adapter designed for OM3 and OM4 multimode fiber installations. The integrated shutter mechanism protects the ferrule and optical interface from dust and debris when a connector is not inserted, maintaining signal integrity over time. This adapter is finished in aqua, the standard color designation for OM3 and OM4 multimode fiber components. It is typically installed by low-voltage technicians and network infrastructure professionals working on structured cabling systems in commercial and data center environments.

This adapter suits horizontal and backbone fiber runs using OM3 or OM4 multimode cable terminated with LC duplex connectors. Common installation scenarios include patch panels, wall plates, fiber enclosures, and rack-mount equipment bays. The duplex configuration supports simultaneous transmit and receive paths in a single adapter body, which is standard for most active equipment connections. The aqua color coding aids in fast identification of multimode fiber ports during moves, adds, and changes.

Key Features

• Shuttered design protects optical ferrule from dust and contamination when port is unused
• Aqua color coding matches OM3 and OM4 multimode fiber industry standards
• Compatible with standard duplex LC connectors used in structured cabling systems
• Sold individually as a single unit for flexible quantity ordering

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and field-installation adapter for duplex LC multimode fiber optic patch panels, enclosures, and faceplates supporting OM3 or OM4 cable.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by low-voltage or fiber optic cabling technicians. Ensure the fiber run is not active and that any connected transceivers are powered down before inserting or removing adapters from an enclosure or patch panel. Follow TIA-568 structured cabling standards for fiber adapter installation and port labeling. Inspect the adapter shutter and ferrule bore for debris before seating connectors.
