Fibre Optic Adapter SC/SC Duplex Value 21.99.0655

VALUE Fibre Optic Adapter SC/SC Duplex Value 21.99.0655 is a duplex SC-to-SC coupling designed for use with OM3 multimode fiber. The adapter provides a compact, snap-in style connection that enables reliable mating of two SC multimode connectors in patch panels, wall plates or inline extension points. Its high-quality aqua plastic housing and phosphor bronze guide sleeves deliver consistent alignment of ferrules to minimize insertion loss in multimode networks.

Advantages

The duplex SC adapter offers low insertion loss and repeatable connections through precise ferrule alignment and durable materials. The robust plastic housing resists deformation while maintaining a standardized footprint for easy installation in common keystone or panel openings. Phosphor bronze guide sleeves ensure long-term mechanical stability and reduced wear on connector ferrules during repeated mating cycles.

Suitable for

• OM3 multimode fiber patching and extensions
• Patch panels and wall plate terminations
• Internal cabling infrastructure in offices and data rooms
• Fiber optic link repairs and temporary connections

Key specifications

• Connector type: SC duplex (2x SC sockets)
• Fiber type: multimode, optimized for OM3
• Housing material: high-quality plastic (aqua color)
• Guide sleeve material: phosphor bronze for ferrule alignment
• Mounting: snap-in installation for standard openings
• Application: installation or extension of multimode fiber optic cables

How to use

Insert the adapter into the designated keystone or panel opening until it clicks into place. Ensure both mating SC connectors are clean and free of debris before insertion to reduce signal loss and potential damage. Align each SC connector with the adapter socket and push gently until fully engaged; for duplex connections, observe the correct polarity of the paired fibers. To remove, press the retaining tabs (if present) and pull the adapter or connector straight out to avoid damaging ferrules.

Usage recommendations

Use with OM3 multimode fiber only; this adapter is not suitable for single-mode fiber. Clean connector endfaces with appropriate fiber cleaning tools before each connection. Avoid excessive bending or mechanical stress on connected cables and verify link performance after installation to confirm acceptable insertion loss.
