Leviton Telcom 49991-SSC Sc Single-mode Fiber Connector

Product Description

The LEVITON TELCOM 49991-SSC is a pre-polished fiber optic SC connector designed for single-mode fiber terminations. The pre-polished ferrule eliminates the need for field polishing, reducing termination time and the potential for end-face defects caused by improper polishing technique. Blue color coding identifies single-mode compatibility at a glance, following standard fiber optic color convention. This connector is installed by low-voltage technicians, network cabling contractors, and telecommunications professionals during structured cabling installations.

This SC connector is suited for single-mode fiber optic runs in commercial and residential telecommunications infrastructure. Typical applications include backbone cabling, horizontal runs to patch panels, and field terminations where a polished finish and reliable optical performance are required without the use of epoxy and polish methods. The blue housing provides a quick visual indicator for single-mode fiber identification during installation and maintenance.

Key Features

• Pre-polished ferrule eliminates field polishing for faster, cleaner terminations
• Blue housing denotes single-mode fiber compatibility per industry color convention
• SC connector form factor for use with standard SC-compatible ports and patch panels
• Sold individually, allowing purchase to match exact job quantity

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style field termination connector for single-mode fiber optic cable installations using SC-style ports and panel systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed low-voltage or telecommunications cabling technicians following TIA-568 structured cabling standards. Cleave the fiber end cleanly using a precision fiber cleaver before inserting into the pre-polished ferrule. Do not use epoxy or polish the ferrule end after assembly, as the ferrule comes factory-finished. Inspect the fiber end-face with an appropriate optical inspection scope before mating the connector to any active or passive port.
