OPTIX Qoltec LC/APC Duplex Singlemode Fiber Optic Adapter

Fiber optic adapter with LC/APC duplex configuration for single-mode networks, delivering reliable low-loss connections with an insertion loss of ≤0.2 dB and return loss ≥60 dB. The angled physical contact (APC) polish minimizes back reflections, making it ideal for high-speed data transmission in FTTx, LAN, WAN, data centers, and telecommunication systems.

Advantages

Precision zirconia ceramic ferrules ensure accurate fiber alignment and long-term durability, rated for over 1000 mating cycles. The green housing provides easy identification of APC connectors, while the flanged panel-mount design simplifies installation in patch panels, wall plates, and enclosures. Compliant with RoHS, IEC 61754-20, and TIA/EIA-604-10 standards, this adapter supports 1310 nm and 1550 nm wavelengths for versatile network applications.
