Fiber optic adapter SM LC/APC duplex FA-LCAP-SD01-0001-BU

Single-mode fiber optic adapter SM LC/APC duplex is a key element in the construction and maintenance of reliable fiber optic networks. It provides a precise connection, minimizing signal loss and guaranteeing stable data transmission. Made of high-quality materials, it is designed for use in various network configurations.

Construction and application

The adapter connects patch cords or pigtails with patch cords, finding application in fiber optic switches and subscriber sockets. A solid plastic housing, equipped with a collar with mounting holes and a latch, facilitates installation and ensures connection stability. A precisely made ceramic ferrule minimizes signal attenuation, which translates to better transmission quality.

Key features and benefits

• Single-mode fiber type (SM): ideal for transmitting data over long distances while maintaining high bandwidth.
• LC/APC connectors: a popular connector standard, providing precision and reliability of connections. The APC (Angled Physical Contact) polishing angle minimizes signal reflections, which is particularly important in applications requiring high-quality transmission.
• Duplex design: enables simultaneous data transmission and reception, increasing network efficiency.
• Low insertion loss (0.2 dB): guarantees minimal signal loss during connection, which translates to better transmission quality and greater network range.
• Wide operating temperature range (-40 - 85 °C): allows the adapter to be used in various environmental conditions.
• Solid construction: durable plastic and precise ceramic ferrule ensure long-lasting and reliable operation of the adapter.

The adapter is characterized by a ferrule diameter of 1.25 mm and a fiber diameter of 9/125 µm, which ensures compatibility with most standard SM fiber optic cables. The green color makes it easy to identify the adapter in the installation. Additionally, the adapter has a cap to protect against contamination and damage to the optical ports during downtime or network maintenance.
