SC/APC Simplex Fiber Optic Adapter - Single Mode - Flanged
Connect your single-mode SC/APC fiber cables seamlessly with this reliable simplex fiber optic adapter featuring angled physical contact (APC) polish. Designed as a snap-in solution for fiber distribution units, patch panels, and wall-mount enclosures, this adapter provides secure, low-loss coupling for SC/APC connections. The green color coding makes it easy to identify APC-polished single-mode fiber connections, preventing mismatches with standard UPC connectors.
Built with precision ceramic sleeve technology and durable plastic flanges, this adapter delivers consistent performance and superior back-reflection characteristics. The APC (Angled Physical Contact) polish provides an 8-degree angled endface that virtually eliminates back reflection, making it ideal for high-performance applications including CATV, passive optical networks (PON), wavelength division multiplexing (WDM), and other sensitive optical systems.
