Descriptions
A Singlemode Duplex APC LC to LC Fiber Optic Adapter is a device designed to connect two single-mode fiber optic cables, each terminated with LC APC connectors. This adapter enables efficient and reliable data transmission in optical networks, particularly for long-distance applications.
Breakdown of the Components:
Singlemode: Single-mode fiber is designed to carry light signals over a single path, which minimizes modal dispersion and allows for long-distance transmission with minimal signal loss. It's commonly used in telecommunications, data centers, and high-speed internet services.
Duplex: Duplex refers to the configuration of the adapter, allowing for two fibers to be connected. This enables bidirectional communication, with one fiber used for transmitting data and the other for receiving data.
APC (Angled Physical Contact): APC refers to the type of polish applied to the connector’s end-face. APC connectors have an 8-degree angled surface that significantly reduces reflection (return loss) and minimizes signal degradation, making them ideal for long-distance communication. APC connectors typically have a higher return loss (around -65 dB or better) compared to UPC connectors, which is beneficial in high-precision applications.
LC Connector: LC (Lucent Connector) is a smaller, compact connector type, known for its high density. LC connectors feature a latch mechanism that allows for easy and secure connections, making them ideal for high-density applications like data centers and telecommunications.
Main Features
Low Insertion and Return Loss: The APC polish provides low insertion loss and very high return loss, ensuring signal integrity over long distances.
Duplex Configuration: Supports simultaneous bidirectional communication, essential for many networking applications where data needs to be sent and received.
LC Connector: The small form factor of LC connectors allows for efficient use of space in high-density environments, reducing the overall footprint of fiber optic installations.
Optimized for Long-Distance Applications: Single-mode fiber with APC connectors is ideal for long-distance data transmission, commonly used in telecom networks, WANs, and data center interconnects.
