SC Co n n e ct o r s & Ad a p t e r s
Amphenol’s 954 series fiber optic SC connectors utilize a push-
pull retention feature enabling easy insertion and removal,
making it ideally suited for high density. The SC connector
features an internal cavity that virtually eliminates the possibility
of improper epoxy application, thus providing higher
manufacturing yields.
Amphenol’s SC connectors are exceptionally suited for
factory and field installation.
Every aspect of the
connector system is precision manufactured to produce
reliable and consistent performance. The SC is also designed
to meet industry specifications for building wiring, EIA/ TIA-
568A.
