The NS-AD-SC-APC-SX is a specialized variant of the SC adapter line, specifically engineered for networks that require the highest level of signal purity. By utilizing Angle Physical Contact (APC) technology, this adapter is designed to virtually eliminate back reflection, making it indispensable for high-power optical systems and video transmission.

Netsys NS-AD-SC-APC-SX

The Netsys NS-AD-SC-APC-SX is a high-precision SC-to-SC Simplex Fiber Optic Adapter designed for Single-Mode (SM) applications utilizing APC polishing. Featuring the industry-standard green housing, this adapter ensures a secure and precise alignment for angled fiber end-faces, providing the ultra-low return loss necessary for sensitive telecommunications and CATV equipment.

Key Features

• APC (Angled Physical Contact) Optimized: Specifically designed to house green-coded APC connectors. The internal alignment is precision-tuned to accommodate the 8-degree angle of APC ferrules, minimizing back reflection (ORL).

• Single-Mode Efficiency: Tailored for $9/125\mu m$ Single-Mode fiber networks, ensuring peak performance over long-distance links.

• High-Grade Zirconia Sleeve: Features a premium zirconia ceramic split sleeve that maintains strict core-to-core alignment, ensuring consistent low insertion loss over hundreds of matings.

• Simplex Space-Saving Design: A compact, single-port (Simplex) configuration ideal for precise point-to-point patching and individual subscriber terminations.

• Rugged Construction: Built with a durable, flame-retardant plastic housing and integrated metal mounting clips for a secure “snap-in” fit in standard SC cutouts.
