With APC connectors being used by most cable companies, other FTTX providers in outside plant applications, and passive optical applications (both GPONs and passive optical LANs). Future higher-speed passive optical networks and other WDM applications that will use higher wavelengths via singlemode fiber will also likely require reduced return loss of APC connectors.
These connectors usually come in the green color. However, you can't plug them directly into most non-FTTx devices, such as fiber media converters, routers with fiber ports, switches, SFP modules, and so on. All this equipment requires SC UPC (blue) connectors.
This is where ADnet's SC to UPC adapters come in really handy – it is a simple, fast, plug and play solution - just plug the SC UPC male side into UPC equipment, i.e a fiber media converter, router, or switch, and plug the SC APC patchcord into a female socket of the adapter
These are 0 dB loss devices, so no additional return or direct loss will be introduced into the whole fiber link.
