The SC/APC Singlemode Duplex Fiber Adapter is an essential component for high-performance fiber optic connections, designed to ensure low insertion loss and secure alignment in duplex singlemode SC/APC optical networks. This adapter provides a simple yet reliable way to couple and align SC/APC connectors, making it a preferred choice in a wide range of applications such as FTTH (Fiber to the Home), telecommunication networks, data centers, CATV, and optical test equipment.
As an original manufacturer, we offer this adapter at wholesale factory pricing, providing a cost-effective and scalable solution for your fiber infrastructure projects. Whether you’re sourcing for mass deployment or custom installations, our SC/APC Singlemode Duplex Fiber Adapter ensures long-lasting performance, stable signal transmission, and compliance with all industry standards.
What is an SC/APC Singlemode Duplex Fiber Adapter?

An SC/APC Singlemode Duplex Fiber Adapter is a passive optical device used to precisely align and connect two SC/APC-terminated singlemode fibers in a duplex configuration. The “APC” stands for Angled Physical Contact, where the fiber end faces are polished at an 8° angle to minimize back reflection, making it ideal for long-distance and high-bandwidth singlemode fiber transmission.
The duplex version of this adapter allows for two fiber connections in one housing, enabling bidirectional data flow—perfect for duplex communication environments.
Key Features of the SC/APC Singlemode Duplex Fiber Adapter
- Duplex SC/APC Port Configuration – Supports bidirectional data transfer with two independent channels in a compact footprint
- Low Insertion Loss & High Return Loss – Designed for stable optical signal performance in singlemode fiber links
- Zirconia Ceramic Alignment Sleeves – Ensure precise fiber alignment and long-term durability
- Angled APC Polish (8°) – Minimizes back reflection (≤ -60dB), enhancing signal quality
- UL 94V-0 Flame Retardant Housing – Offers fire-safe operation in indoor setups
- Color-Coded Green Housing – Easily identifiable as SC/APC for quick, error-free installations
- Snap-in Design – Simplifies installation into adapter panels, faceplates, or wall boxes
- RoHS & REACH Compliant – Eco-friendly and compliant with international safety standards
- Compatible with SC/APC Fiber Connectors – Fully interoperable with all standard SC/APC singlemode fiber connectors
