SC field polish connectors are TIA/EIA-604 FOCIS-3

compliant. SC simplex and duplex connectors are

field terminable. The fibers shall terminate in 2.5mm

ceramic ferrules with non-optical disconnect

functionality and an average insertion loss of 0.1dB

(multimode) and 0.15dB (singlemode) per mated pair.

Panduit SC Fiber Optic Connectors are used for

equipment cross-connects or interconnects in

backbone, horizontal and work area applications.

SC connectors are recommended by

TIA/EIA-568-B.3 at the wall outlet and the

telecommunications closet. Multimode connectors

provide a robust and easy to terminate solution for

lower cost fiber-to-the-desk applications.

Singlemode connectors provide added bandwidth

capacity for data hungry applications.

Free floating housing

Ensures complete latching even when inserted by the boot;

valuable in high-density spacing applications

Pre-assembled inner

Fewer parts simplifies assembly and reduces installer error for

inner housing

lower installed cost

Full length adhesive

Prevents adhesive from entering internal cavity of connector to

fill tube

reduce installer error

Non-optical disconnect

Maintains data transmission under tensile loads for jacketed

cable for network reliability

Anaerobic adhesive

Simplifies and reduces installation time by 50% compared to heat

field installation

cured epoxy terminations; curing oven/time not required

High temperature

Allows use of high glass transition temperature epoxies

thermoplastic design

with cure temperatures up to 150°C (302°F)
