The useful distinction
Recognize it. Then verify it.
opticalCON DUO packages LC-Duplex-based optical connectivity into a rugged push-pull field connector system with two fibers. [C256A]
Source-scoped identification facts
Each value retains its exact example, role and measurement axis. Facts from different parts must not be combined into an invented component.

Not recorded: Dimensions / axis, Mounting, Keying / polarization, Shell / form, Exact part / implementation, Recorded markings, View convention. Unknown fields stay unknown; illustrations supply no measurements or pin assignments.
Recorded variant and source limits
- Two fibers do not establish wavelength, singlemode/multimode compatibility, transceiver type or allowable optical loss for a real link.
- No ferrule geometry, polishing tolerance or fabrication dimensions are published.
Bounded facts, visible unknowns
Specifications and limits
| Documented identification | Connector-family identity is source-backed; exact variant/count remains implementation-specific. [C256A] |
|---|---|
| Mechanical dimensions | No independently reviewed mechanical drawing in V43; do not use this page for fabrication, fit testing or tolerance work. |
| Engineering pinout | Source-checked engineering profile available; independent review pending. Open engineering profile → |
| Verified device list | Not included. Check exact device and accessory documentation. |
Use the source-backed form or position count only for identification. Resolve ratings, protocol, direction, wiring, cable construction and exact device support from the relevant equipment and component documentation.
Before you connect
What to check
- Identify the exact connector family and variant from the equipment or cable documentation.
- Keep shape, contact count, protocol, electrical rating and device support as separate facts.
- Do not force, rewire or adapt a connector from this recognition record; resolve the remaining requirements first.
What is not established
This field note does not approve a connection, adapter, cable assembly, rewiring scheme or fabricated part. It intentionally omits unsupported pin assignments and mechanical tolerances.
