Mating interfaces

Fiber optic adapter

Fiber adapters align two compatible connector ferrules in a panel or coupler. Connector type, polish and mounting footprint define the mating arrangement; simplex and duplex formats provide different port densities.

  • Ferrule alignment between matched connectors
  • Simplex and duplex panel arrangements
  • Clip or screw mounting selected by footprint

Product details

What is the difference between simplex and duplex?

Simplex accepts one connector pair. Duplex combines two optical mating paths in one housing.

Why does the panel cut-out matter?

Similar-looking adapters can use different flanges and retention clips. The panel opening and fixing method define the mechanical fit.
