Single-mode Adapter ULTIMODE A-513S (SC to FC)

Single-mode Adapter ULTIMODE A-513S enables connection (mechanical splice) of two optical fibers terminated with SC and FC connectors.

Distinguishing features:

•for SC to FC connection
•for single-mode equipment
•plastic case (ceramic ferrule)

Single-mode Adapter ULTIMODE A-513S enables connection (mechanical splice) of two optical fibers terminated with SC and FC connectors. Adapters are usually used in combination with patchcords and pigtails in optical concentrators etc.

SC and FC connectors are currently the most popular optical coupling elements. SC connectors feature simple matching (push-pull coupling with a snap), rectangular cross-section allowing dense packing of the connectors on the panel, and plastic construction (of course outside the ferrule). FC connectors have threaded connection that ensures mechanical isolation of the ferrule and fiber.
