DESCRIPTION
The SC/UPC to SC/UPC Single Mode Simplex Inner Shutter Fiber Optic Adapter is engineered to deliver safe, precise, and reliable fiber connections. Its inner shutter design automatically closes when the connector is removed, offering both laser protection and dust prevention, which reduces cleaning and maintenance. The without flange design makes it perfect for space-saving, high-density fiber optic panels and enclosures.
Constructed with a blue thermoplastic housing and a zirconia ceramic sleeve, this adapter provides low insertion loss, excellent return loss, and long-term durability, making it an excellent choice for telecom, FTTH, and data center applications.

FAQ
Q1: What is the difference between UPC and APC adapters?
UPC (blue) adapters offer low insertion loss and good return loss, making them common in data centers and telecom networks. APC (green) adapters provide very low back reflection and are mainly used in long-haul and high-precision optical systems.
Q2: Why choose an inner shutter adapter?
An inner shutter enhances safety by blocking potential laser emissions and reducing dust ingress, which helps extend service life and minimizes cleaning requirements.
Q3: Can this adapter be mounted without screws?
Yes, the flangeless design allows installation in modular or snap-in style enclosures without the need for screws.
Q4: Is this adapter compatible with multimode fiber?
No, this model is specifically designed for single-mode (SM) fiber applications.
Q5: What environments is it suitable for?
It is widely used in FTTH systems, telecom networks, CATV systems, and data center environments.
