How to use

Prepare the two SC-terminated fiber cables by ensuring clean connectors and correct alignment. Insert each SC connector into one end of the coupler until it locks in place. Verify the connection visually and, if available, test with appropriate optical test equipment to confirm signal continuity and acceptable loss. For outdoor deployments, ensure the coupler is fully seated and any additional sealing or mounting recommended for the installation site is applied.

Recommendations

Clean fiber endfaces before connecting and use appropriate dust caps when the coupler is not in use. For permanent outdoor installations, follow site-specific mounting and sealing procedures to maintain IP68 protection.
