SC-Type Ceramic Sleeve
SC-type ceramic sleeve is a precision-engineered component designed for use in fiber optic connectors. It provides accurate alignment of single-core (SC) optical fibers, ensuring minimal signal loss and reliable performance. Made from zirconia ceramic, this sleeve offers superior wear resistance and thermal stability. Its polished internal bore maintains tight tolerance, reducing return loss in high-speed data transmission. The SC-type ceramic sleeve is widely used in telecommunications, data centers, and networking infrastructure. It guarantees long-lasting performance in demanding environments, making it essential for maintaining signal integrity in modern optical communication systems.
