SC APC Fiber Optic Quick Connector for FTTH
SC APC fiber optical quick connectors are specialized for rapid field assembly in Fiber – To – The – Home (FTTH) networks. Here’s a detailed breakdown:
1. Connector Design
- Interface: It uses an SC (Square Connector) interface. This interface adopts a push – pull latching mechanism, which makes the operation simple and fast.
- Endface: The APC (Angled Physical Contact) endface is polished at an 8° angle relative to the fiber axis. This unique design can greatly reduce back reflections. Because of this advantage, it is very suitable for RF – related applications such as Cable Television (CATV) systems.
2. Fiber Compatibility
It is mainly compatible with single – mode optical fibers with a core/cladding diameter of 9/125μm. These fibers are also compatible with OS1/OS2 standards, ensuring stable long – distance signal transmission.
3. Installation Advantage
It supports field quick cold connection. The pre – polished (pre – bur) ferrule eliminates the need for on – site polishing equipment. Technicians can complete the installation efficiently, which is very suitable for large – scale FTTH deployment.
4. Performance Metrics
- Insertion Loss: High-quality connectors can achieve a value of ≤0.3dB, minimizing signal attenuation.
- Return Loss: It can reach ≥50dB, effectively suppressing signal reflection and ensuring the purity of signal transmission.
5. Cable & Visual Identification
- Cable Compatibility: It is suitable for standard FTTH drop cables, usually accommodating a cable diameter of about 0.9mm.
- Color Marking: APC connectors are usually green (different from the blue of UPC connectors), which facilitates quick identification during installation
