Designed for Professional Fibre Networks:

This SC/APC simplex midcoupler provides stable, high-fidelity connections between SC/APC patch cables. The angled physical contact (APC) polish type minimises back reflections, making it especially suited for long-distance single-mode transmissions and video/data applications where return loss is critical.

Applications:

• FTTH (Fibre to the Home)
• GPON and EPON fibre access networks
• Telecom core and edge networks
• Data centre fibre patching
• ODFs and fibre termination panels

Reliable, Rugged, and Easy to Install:

Made with quality materials including a ceramic alignment sleeve and stainless steel retention ring, this adapter is built for frequent reuse without degradation in performance. The compact design ensures easy snap-in mounting into standard fibre enclosures and patch panels.

Frequently Asked Questions:

• Can I use this with SC/UPC connectors?
  No, SC/APC midcouplers are only compatible with SC/APC connectors due to their angled polish. Use SC/UPC models for flat polish connections.
• What makes APC better for long-distance?
  The angled polish of APC reduces back reflections, making it ideal for long-haul and video-over-fibre systems where signal clarity is essential.
• Are dust caps included?
  Yes, each adapter comes with protective dust caps to prevent contamination before use.
