Introduction to SC adapter
The SC/UPC (Subscriber Connector/Ultra Physical Contact) multimode simplex fiber optic adapter is specifically designed for use with multimode optical fibers. The UPC in the name refers to the type of connector endface finish, which has a ultra-polished physical contact surface. The “simplex” in the name means that this adapter is used for a single strand of optical fiber, rather than a dual-fiber (duplex) connection.
The SC/UPC multimode simplex fiber optic adapter is used in a wide range of applications, including data centers, local area networks (LANs), and other high-speed optical communications systems. It is designed to provide low insertion loss, high return loss, and a high level of stability and reliability in optical connections.
