Fibre optic adapter LC/APC EFB Elektronik 53343.31

The EFB Elektronik 53343.31 fibre optic adapter is an LC/APC breakout simplex adapter with snap-in fixing, designed for single-mode fibre connections. The adapter's green color denotes its APC (Angled Physical Contact) polish, which reduces back reflection and supports stable, low-loss connections for high-speed data transmission in networking installations.

Advantages

This LC/APC adapter provides a simple, space-saving simplex breakout solution with snap-in mounting for quick installation. Its APC angled contact ensures reduced signal reflection and improved return loss compared with UPC types, supporting reliable single-mode link performance. The standardized LC form factor ensures compatibility with common LC/APC connectors and equipment.

Suitable for

• Single-mode fibre patch panels and wall outlets
• High-speed data and telecom links requiring low back reflection
• Point-to-point connections in network racks and distribution frames

How to use

Insert the adapter into the compatible panel or outlet until the snap-in fixing secures it. Connect LC/APC patch cords by aligning the keyed ferrules and pressing until they click into place. To remove, depress the snap-in latch and pull the adapter or connector straight out. Handle connectors and fibre ends by their housings to avoid contaminating the ferrule faces.

Recommendations

Keep ferrule endfaces clean and use appropriate cleaning tools before mating. Use this LC/APC adapter where low return loss is required, and avoid mating APC with UPC connectors to prevent poor optical performance.
