Fibre Optic Adapter SC Simplex Single-Mode Z ROLINE 21.17.0071

The ROLINE Fibre Optic Adapter SC Simplex Single-Mode Z (model 21.17.0071) is a single-mode SC/SC simplex coupling designed to provide reliable and low-loss connections between fibre optic cables. It is intended for installation or extension of single-mode fibre links and features a durable plastic housing with zirconium guide sleeves for precise ferrule alignment.

Advantages

This SC simplex adapter offers a compact design for space-efficient installations and ensures stable optical performance for single-mode networks. The high-quality plastic housing resists mechanical stress while the zirconium (Z) guide sleeves improve connector alignment to minimise insertion loss and back reflection.

Suitable for

• Joining two single-mode SC-terminated fibre optic cables
• Extending fibre runs in telecommunications and data networks
• Patch panel or wall outlet connections requiring SC simplex couplings

How to use

Insert SC connectors from two fibre optic cables into the respective adapter ports until they click into place, ensuring correct orientation and clean connector endfaces. Use the adapter to join or extend single-mode fibre links in patch panels, wall outlets or inline connections. For removal, press the SC connector latch and gently pull the connector out of the adapter.

Recommendations

Before connecting, clean connector endfaces with appropriate fibre cleaning tools to reduce insertion loss and prevent fibre damage. Verify compatibility with single-mode SC connectors and avoid excessive bending of the fibre near the adapter to maintain signal integrity.
