eLink SC Fiber Optic Connector is a push pull type, gives an audible click when mates into its adaptor and
can be tuned in 4 positions to provide the lowest insertion loss. It comprises of a body with ceramic ferrule/spring/crimp
barrel assembly plus a crimp over sleeve and rubber boot. These connectors are suitable for, 900m and 2-3mm cables.
The connector is precision made to demanding specifications. The combination of a ceramic ferrule with precision polymer
housing provides consistent long-term mechanical and optical performance.
