The SC APC Fast Field Connector is engineered for applications that require strict optical reflection control, such as PON, CATV, and long-distance single-mode fiber networks.
Featuring an 8° angled APC ferrule, this connector significantly reduces back reflection and ensures a return loss of ≥55 dB, making it suitable for high-performance optical transmission environments. The tool-free mechanical termination design enables fast on-site installation while maintaining stable optical performance.
Compatible with common FTTH drop cables and G.652/G.657 fibers, the SC APC fast connector is an excellent choice for outdoor cabinets, splitter boxes, and optical distribution points where signal quality is especially critical.
