3M Fast Optical connector SC/APC, SM, 3.0mm, without splicing

3M Fast Optical connector SC/APC, SM, 3.0 mm is a field‑installable mechanical fibre optic connector designed for rapid, dependable single‑mode terminations without a fusion splicer. Perfect for FTTH/FTTx rollouts, building distribution, outlets and patch panels, on‑site repairs and new installations, it delivers professional results in minutes while keeping costs under control.

Built on proven V‑groove alignment and an index‑matching gel, this SC/APC fast connector achieves consistently low insertion loss (typically around 0.1 dB) and excellent stability. The angled polish (APC) minimises back reflection for clean, high‑quality transmission, while the standard green housing makes identification effortless. With basic preparation tools (strip, clean, precision cleave), most terminations can be completed in about 30 seconds—no epoxy, no polishing, no curing and no splicer required.

• No fusion splicing: terminate fibres on site without a splicer—ideal for field work, upgrades and small projects.
• Low loss, high stability: V‑groove technology and index‑matching gel deliver typical insertion loss of ~0.1 dB for reliable links.
• Rapid installation: complete a neat, repeatable termination in roughly 30 seconds with standard preparation tools.
• SC/APC performance: angled polish for low return loss and clean signal integrity; green body for easy visual ID.
• Single‑mode ready: optimised for 9/125 μm SM fibres used in modern access and enterprise networks.
• 3.0 mm cable support: secure strain relief for common drop and indoor installation cables with 3.0 mm outer jacket.
• Versatile applications: FTTH/FTTx subscriber drops, wall outlets, patch panels and cabinets, service repairs and network extensions.
• Clean, professional finish: consistent results with no adhesives or curing time, reducing rework and downtime.

Choose a trusted, time‑saving SC/APC fast connector that delivers repeatable, first‑time results. The 3M SC/APC Fast Connector helps installers speed up deployment while maintaining the optical performance your network demands.
