Keystone module DELOCK 87173 — SC to SC duplex, aqua/grey/white, 60.1×59.4×21.6 mm

DELOCK 87173 keystone module is an SC-to-SC duplex fiber adapter module designed for use in keystone housings, patch panels or distribution frames. The module provides two SC fiber interfaces in a compact housing with dimensions of 60.1 × 59.4 × 21.6 mm and is supplied as a single unit in a polybag. It enables optical fiber connections to be coupled reliably for network installations that require SC duplex connectivity.

Advantages

The module offers standard SC duplex interfaces that support quick, low-loss mating of SC fiber connectors. Its compact keystone form factor is compatible with common keystone housings and panels, while the colour coding (aqua/grey/white) helps with identification of fiber types and connections. The housing includes a small labelling field for clear port identification, and the adapter can be mounted on a 35 mm DIN rail for flexible installation in structured cabling environments.

Suitable for

• Joining SC-to-SC duplex fiber connections in server rooms and telecom cabinets
• Installation into keystone panels, patch panels and keystone housings
• DIN rail mounted fiber distribution or small communication enclosures
• Fiber backbone or horizontal cabling where SC duplex coupling is required

Key specifications

• Connector interfaces: SC to SC duplex
• Colour: aqua, grey and white for port and housing identification
• Dimensions: 60.1 × 59.4 × 21.6 mm
• Mounting options: keystone cutout compatible and 35 mm DIN rail attachment
• Supply: single unit packed in polybag

How to use

Insert the module into a compatible keystone slot in a housing or panel until it clicks into place, or attach the module to a 35 mm DIN rail using the DIN rail mounting feature. Connect SC fiber connectors on each side of the adapter, ensuring connectors are clean and properly aligned to minimise insertion loss. Use the labelling field to mark the port according to your cabling plan. For removal, gently release the module from the keystone housing or unclip it from the DIN rail before disconnecting fibers.

Recommendations

For reliable optical performance, clean SC connector endfaces before mating and avoid excessive bending of fiber cables near the adapter. Use the colour coding and labelling field to maintain consistent documentation of fiber routes and connection pairs.
