Fiber Optic Adapter/Attenuators

ST-LC Singlemode Female to Male Fiber Plug-in Optic Adaptor Hybird Mating Fiber Optic Attenuator with Rectangular Flange

Item Description

Fiber Optic adapters are typically linked to two fiber cables with the same connectors, SC to SC, LC to LC, FC to FC, ST to ST, etc… some other adapters are used to link two different connectors, it is called a hybrid adapter. SC to ST, SC to FC, SC to LC, etc… when the connectors have different ferrule sizes, it is more complicated to mate them with low loss, So the adapter is more expensive, for example, SC to LC adapter. Most fiber optic adapters are female to female, to link two pre-terminated cables. Some others are female-male, which is typically plugged into a port on the equipment/instrument. It allows the port to accept a different connector than the one originally designed. ST-LC Singlemode fiber optic adapter/coupler male to female is also used to connect fiber optic cables together. It offers a solution for Hybird applications where the two different kinds of fiber optic connectors or cable assemblies need to be connected with each other. The main function of Hybird fiber optic adapter is for connection between various different fiber optic connectors, fiber optic patch cords, fiber optic pigtails and fiber optic equipments, different shapes, but it offers the point-to-point connection in the fiber optic network.
