The new SC Internal Shuttered Adapter

With fiber optics reaching closer to the consumer and the increasingly high-powered active devices being used in today's networking and telecommunication platforms, eye safety is an absolute necessity.

Senko's SC Shuttered Adapter family has been designed to meet this growing need. Our new internal Shuttered solutions for Senko's SC adapters provide a cost-effective means of shielding potentially harmful light. This integrated, retractable Shuttered inside the adapter body, is only actuated by inserting the SC connector into the adapter. Contact with the ferrule end face and fiber core is avoided due to the stepped design of the Shuttered, preventing end face damage. This fully automatic design is an alternative to external Shuttered solutions.

• Eliminates stray laser light during mating and demating of the SC connector to assist in eye safety. • 100% automatic Shuttered operation requiring no operator handling of Shuttered door. • Available with zirconia or phosphor bronze alignment sleeves. • Compatible with standard SENKO SC adapters.
