Fiber optic adapter plate ACT FA2157 — 6×SC Duplex, 12‑fiber, OS2 APC8

ACT FA2157 is a fiber optic adapter plate configured to hold six SC Duplex adapters, enabling connection of up to 12 single‑mode fibers. Designed for OS2 fiber with APC8 connector geometry, the plate provides a compact, fixed mounting solution for patch panels, distribution enclosures and wall boxes. The unit supports orderly fiber coupling and maintains alignment for high‑quality signal transmission in telecom and data center environments.

Advantages

The plate offers a space‑efficient layout that concentrates six SC Duplex adapter positions in a single, standardized panel footprint. Using OS2 APC8 compatibility ensures low back reflection and consistent singlemode performance. The fixed mounting design simplifies installation into racks and enclosures and helps maintain tidy cable management and reliable mating of fiber connectors.

How to use

Install the ACT FA2157 plate into the corresponding cutout of a patch panel or distribution enclosure and secure it with the panel’s mounting screws. Insert SC Duplex adapters into the plate positions and terminate or connect fibers using the appropriate APC8‑end SC connectors. Route and secure fiber cables to avoid excessive bending and strain, verifying connector alignment and optical performance after installation.

Recommendations

Ensure endpoints use OS2 singlemode fibers with APC‑style terminations and follow standard fiber handling practices: keep connectors clean, avoid tight bends, and verify optical loss with appropriate test equipment after mating.
