## Summary description

Alantec FOA-SC-SMS is an SC simplex fiber optic adapter designed for single-mode (SM) connections. It provides a compact coupling point for SC connector termination, enabling alignment and stable signal transmission between two SC simplex connectors. Typical use cases include fiber patch panels, wall outlets and inline joins in single-mode networks where reliable mechanical connection and low insertion loss are required.

## Long description

Alantec SC simplex SM fiber optic adapter FOA-SC-SMS is designed to provide a compact, reliable coupling point for single-mode SC connectors. Intended for use where precise alignment and low insertion loss are required, this adapter enables stable optical continuity between two SC simplex connectors in patch panels, wall outlets or inline joins. The simple form factor and standard SC interface make it suitable for integrating single-mode fibers into existing structured cabling and active equipment connections.
Advantages
The adapter ensures accurate axial alignment of SC ferrules to minimise insertion loss and return loss in single-mode links. Its simplex SC format occupies minimal space and is compatible with standard SC simplex connectors, enabling straightforward installation and replacement. The mechanical design provides a stable mating interface that resists displacement from normal handling and cable movement, supporting consistent optical performance over time.
Suitable for
Single-mode fiber patch panels and frames
Wall-mounted fiber outlets and sockets
Inline joins and short optical extension runs
Telecom and data centre single-mode links requiring SC termination
Key specifications
Connector type: SC simplex coupling for two SC simplex connectors
Fiber mode: single-mode (SM)
Mounting style: panel or chassis receptacle compatible
Body material: durable plastic housing with alignment sleeve
Alignment sleeve type: precision ceramic sleeve for stable ferrule alignment
Typical application: indoor structured cabling and equipment interconnects
How to use
Install the adapter into the designated panel cutout or wall outlet plate compatible with SC simplex receptacles. Clean connector end faces before mating to avoid contamination-related loss. Insert the SC simplex connector into each side of the adapter until a click or firm seating is felt, ensuring ferrules are fully engaged with the alignment sleeve. To disconnect, withdraw connectors straight out to avoid damaging ferrules or the sleeve.
Usage recommendations
For optimal optical performance, use a fiber inspection scope and lint-free wipes with appropriate cleaning fluid to verify end-face cleanliness before connection. Avoid excessive lateral or rotational stress on the mated connectors; secure cables with strain reliefs and maintain bend radii within the fiber manufacturer’s specifications.
