Optical Cable Corp. RFC-SC8-2/3MM Sc Fiber Connector

Product Description

The OPTICAL CABLE CORP. RFC-SC8-2/3MM is a factory-style SC fiber optic connector designed for terminating single mode fiber cable with outer jacket diameters of 2 to 3mm. The Xpress Ultra design allows field technicians to install the connector quickly without epoxy or polishing, reducing termination time on structured cabling and fiber distribution runs. It suits single mode applications where low insertion loss and precise ferrule alignment are critical. Licensed communications technicians and low-voltage cabling contractors are the primary installers for this type of connector.

This SC connector is suited for single mode fiber installations in commercial and residential structured cabling systems, data centers, telecom closets, and fiber-to-the-premises runs. The 2 to 3mm cable diameter compatibility makes it appropriate for tight-buffered and jacketed single mode fiber cables commonly used in horizontal and backbone cabling runs. It is sold individually, making it practical for single-termination service calls or small installation jobs.

Key Features

• Xpress Ultra tool-free or minimal-tool termination design for fast field installation
• Compatible with 2 to 3mm outer diameter single mode fiber cable
• SC connector form factor with standard push-pull coupling mechanism
• Single mode ferrule alignment for low insertion loss performance
• Sold individually, unit of measure: each

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style field-termination connector for single mode fiber cables with outer jacket diameters of 2 to 3mm, typical of standard tight-buffered and simplex jacketed fiber used in structured cabling installations.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified low-voltage cabling technician or licensed communications contractor familiar with fiber optic termination practices. Disconnect and verify the fiber circuit is de-energized and free of optical signal before handling or terminating. Follow the connector manufacturer instructions for cleave length and cable preparation to ensure a clean, low-loss termination. Comply with applicable TIA and local structured cabling standards for fiber installation and labeling.
