SC Connectors are often utilized for latest network applications. SC is a snap in connector that used widely in single mode systems. The connector is as well accessible in a duplex configuration.
SC connector has a push and pull locking device that is very elastic yet offers low insertion loss and high repeatability. It has been rapidly substituting legacy connectors like SMA, ST, connectors and turning out to be the most popular optic fiber connectors utilized in the fiber communication industry.
Due to its push and pull snap in locking device, the connector has advantage in keyed duplexibility to assist in sending and receiving channels in a one fiber unit connection.
SC connector utilizes ceramic ferrules in order to provide high reliability and fiber alignment. The ferrule ceramic is a 2.5milimeter diameter cylindrical formation and the fiber is secured at the center of the hole. The usual insertion loss of a SC is about 0.2 dB.
When looking at the outside of the connector, it has an unusual looking square tipped connector, which is quite cone shaped at its tip. It utilizes spring withholding to seize the connector in its place if mated. The square design and the push and pull coupling system make it functional in a high density applications.
The SC can be coupled in sets of duplex with a duplex clip or coupling receptacle. In a keyed set of duplex, the connector simply applies a form of polarity compatibility with combining adapters in fiber optic patch panels or outlets.
SC connectors has been adopted by the TIA as its official suggested fiber connector in EIA 568-A/TIA or 568SC connector (standard name).
SC connectors’ Duplex version is gaining much popularity in network applications and any other applications that require full duplex transmission. The SC is appropriate whether for single mode and multi-mode fibers. The connector provides excellent packing mass as well as outstanding cost and performance.
SCs are widely utilized in LAN, ATM, WAN, MAN, Gigabit Ethernet, Fibre Channel, data communication, and tele-communication networks.
They offer simplicity, durability and low cost. This connectors as well offer accurate alignment through the ceramic ferrules. Typical matched SC connectors are rated for 1000 mating cycles and have an insertion loss of 0.25 dB.
