Digisol Channel SCS Fiber Optic Field Assembly Connectors, SC, APC Type

Connector Type & Polish
Uses SC connector with APC polishing (Angle‑Polished Connector) — which gives better return loss (less back reflection) compared to PC or UPC in single‑mode fiber setups.

Field Assembly / On‑Site Termination
Designed for termination in the field (on site) without requiring heavy tools, power supply, or polishing equipment. This enables flexibility especially in remote or FTTH deployments.

Double V‑Groove Alignment Clamping Mechanism
Uses a double V‑groove clamp to align fiber cores precisely. This ensures good optical alignment, which helps minimize insertion loss and variability.

No Epoxy or Polishing Required
The connector is a “mechanical / clamp‑based / stub‑based” assembly, meaning you don’t need epoxy, curing, or polishing on site. Speeds up installation and reduces complexity.

Fast Installation Time
Can be installed fairly quickly — Digisol claims site installation can be completed in less than 2 minutes.

GR‑326‑CORE Tensile / Durability Compliance
The connector / cable assembly meets the cable tensile test requirements of the Telcordia GR‑326‑CORE standard, ensuring mechanical durability under pulling stress.

Three Pre‑Assembly Parts
The design comprises only three pre‑assembly parts, simplifying handling, reducing assembly errors, and saving installation time.

Reliable and Superior Optical Performance
The SC‑APC type is positioned for “exceptional stability and low loss,” suitable for advanced fiber optics networks where return loss and signal fidelity are important.

Good Exchangeability / Reliability
Connectors can be replaced or exchanged without large variation in performance; durability / reliability in usage.

User‑Friendly & Cost‑Effective
Given its field‑assembly design, no polish or epoxy, minimal parts, the unit is cost‑efficient in terms of labor/time and ease for installers.

Suitability for Advanced Applications
Good for FTTH (Fiber to the Home), optical access networks, premises wiring, and anywhere single‑mode fiber links with SC‑APC connectors are used.

Durability Under Environmental / Mechanical Stress
Because of compliance with standards like GR‑326 and use of good alignment/clamping, it should withstand reasonable environmental stresses (vibrations, pulls, etc.) in field environments. Implicit in the spec.

Better Return Loss vs PC/UPC
APC polish gives an angle (usually ~8°) that helps reduce back reflection; gives higher return loss ratings compared to flat or physical contact polish types. (Though Digisol does not list exact return loss numbers in the summary.)

Polishing Standard Options
Digisol’s product line supports PC, UPC, APC polishing types — so users can choose APC for lowest reflectance. This SC APC field‑assembly connector is one such variant.

No Electricity Required
Entire assembly is mechanical / clamp / pre‑polished ferrule based, so installation can be done without needing a powered curing station or polishing tools. Very useful for field work.
