Description
This SC Single Mode Connector with blue housing and a 3.0 mm red boot is engineered for stable, low-loss performance across a wide range of single mode optical networks. Designed using FiberMania’s epoxy-and-polish process, it ensures precise fiber alignment, excellent ferrule geometry, and dependable long-term optical stability. The connector incorporates a pre-domed ceramic ferrule to simplify polishing and assembly, making it suitable for both field termination and mass production environments.
The rugged SC design provides secure push-pull latching and consistent optical performance, while the corrosion-resistant body enhances durability under various environmental conditions. Its compliance with GR-326-CORE ensures carrier-grade performance, making it ideal for telecom, broadband, and FTTx applications. This connector is compatible with 9/125 µm single mode fiber and maintains steady insertion loss and return-loss values over a wide operating temperature range.
