LC/UPC to LC/UPC Adapter Duplex SM Fiber Optic Coupler
LC/UPC to LC/UPC Adapter Duplex SM Fiber Optic Coupler , Female to Female, 0.2dB insertion loss .High-precision Ceramic Sleeve Top level ceramic sleeve ensure stable optical performance.
Fiber optic adapter, sometimes also called coupler, is a small device designed to terminate or link the fiber optic cables or fiber optic connectors between two fiber optic lines.By linking two connectors precisely, fiber optic adapters allow the light sources to be transmitted at most and lower the loss as much as possible. At the same time, fiber optic adapters have the merits of low insertion loss, good interchangeability and reproducibility.it is Widely applied in cable television network, LAN & WAN, fiber optic access network and video transmission.

Fiber optic adapters (also called couplers) are designed to connect two fiber optic cables together. They come in versions to connect single fibers together (simplex), two fibers together (duplex), or sometimes four fibers together (quad).
Adapters are designed for multimode or singlemode cables. The singlemode adapters offer more precise alignment of the tips of the connectors (ferrules). It is ok to use singlemode adapters to connect multimode cables, but you should not use multimode adapters to connect singlemode cables. This can cause misalignment of the small singlemode fibers and loss of signal strength (attenuation).
When connecting two multimode fibers, you should always make sure they are the same core diameter (50/125 or 62.5/125). A mismatch here will cause attenuation in one direction (where the larger fiber is transmitting light into the smaller fiber).
Fiber optic adapters are typically connecting cables with similar connectors (SC to SC, LC to LC, etc.). Some adapters, called “hybrid”, accept different types of connectors (ST to SC, LC to SC, etc.). When the connectors have differing ferrule sizes (1.25mm to 2.5mm), as found in LC to SC adapters, the adapters are significantly more expensive because of a more complicated design/manufacturing process.
Most adapters are female on both ends, to connect two cables. Some are male-female, which typically plug into a port on a piece of equipment. This then allows the port to accept a different connector than for which it was originally designed. We discourage this use because we find the adapter extending from the equipment is subject to being bumped and breaking.
Also, if not properly routed, the weight of the cable and connector hanging from the adapter may cause some misalignment and a degraded signal.
LC/UPC to LC/UPC adapter duplex SM fiber optic coupler is a device that allows two LC/UPC connectors to be joined together. It is designed for use with single-mode (SM) fiber optic cables, which are used for long-distance, high-bandwidth data transmission. The LC/UPC connector is a small form factor connector that is commonly used in data communication applications.
The adapter itself is a small, rectangular device that has two LC/UPC ports on either side. The ports are aligned with each other to ensure proper connection between the two cables. The adapter is designed to be inserted between two LC/UPC connectors, creating a direct connection between the two cables.
The duplex design of the adapter allows for two fibers to be connected simultaneously, providing a bi-directional connection between two devices. This is useful in situations where data needs to be transmitted in both directions, such as in a network switch or router.
Overall, the LC/UPC to LC/UPC adapter duplex SM fiber optic coupler is a simple and effective way to connect two SM fiber optic cables together using LC/UPC connectors. It is commonly used in data communication applications where high-bandwidth, long-distance transmission is required.
