Glasvezeladapter Extralink SC/APC singlemode simplex met transparante stofkappen, groen

Extralink SC/APC Singlemode Simplex fiber optic adapter is designed for reliable fiber connections in singlemode networks. The adapter accepts SC/APC connectors and provides precise alignment of ferrules for low insertion loss in patch panel, wall box and splicing enclosure installations. Supplied in green and fitted with transparent dust caps to protect ferrules from contamination during storage and installation, the adapter is lightweight and intended for bulk deployment in network closets and distribution points.

Advantages

The adapter offers accurate mechanical alignment for SC/APC connectors to maintain signal integrity and minimize return loss in singlemode links. Transparent dust caps reduce the risk of contamination without obscuring ferrule condition checks. Its simplex format and compact housing make it suitable for high-density panels while the molded body ensures consistent physical fit and easy insertion and removal of connectors.

Suitable for

• Fiber patch panels and distribution frames
• Wall-mounted fiber boxes and outlet panels
• Splicing enclosures and distribution closures
• FTTx and xPON access network terminations
• Laboratory and field fiber measurement setups

Key specifications

• Connector type: SC/APC (angled physical contact)
• Mode: Singlemode, simplex
• Housing color: green
• Protective caps: transparent dust caps included
• Weight: approximately 5 g per adapter
• Packaging: bulk pack suitable for mass installations

How to use

Before insertion, inspect and, if necessary, clean connector endfaces and the adapter interior with appropriate fiber cleaning tools. Remove the transparent dust caps, insert the SC/APC connector until it clicks into the adapter, and ensure the angled keying is aligned for APC mating. For removal, depress the connector latch and withdraw straight to avoid damaging ferrules. Replace dust caps when connectors are disconnected to keep ferrules clean during storage or transport.

Recommendations

Use a lint-free wipe and approved fiber cleaning solution for endface cleaning. Match APC to APC connectors only to preserve return loss characteristics. Store unused adapters with the dust caps in place and avoid excessive mechanical stress on installed patch cords to maintain long-term performance.
