SC/APC MALE TO LC FEMALE SIMPLEX FIBER OPTIC ADAPTER

The SC/APC Male to LC Female Simplex Fiber Optic Adapter is a hybrid adapter specifically designed for single-mode fiber optic connections. It features an SC male connector with an Angled Physical Contact (APC) polish on one end, which plugs into an existing SC/APC female port or cable. The other end has an LC female port that accepts an LC male connector, which can be either UPC (Ultra Physical Contact) or APC polished, depending on the specific application requirements. The internal alignment sleeve, typically made of high-precision ceramic (zirconia), ensures accurate fiber core alignment, minimizing insertion loss and maximizing signal transmission efficiency. The APC polish on the SC male side ensures high return loss, which is crucial for sensitive single-mode applications. To maintain optimal performance and minimize back reflection throughout the connection, it is recommended to use an LC/APC male connector on the LC female side of this adapter. The adapter housing can be constructed from either metal or plastic, offering durability and reliable operation. This type of adapter is valuable for integrating equipment with different connector interfaces in telecommunications, data centers, testing environments, and other single-mode fiber optic systems where minimizing back reflection is important
