SC Fibre Connectors Price in Kenya
SC (Subscriber Connector or Standard Connector) Fibre Connectors are among the most widely used fibre optic connectors in the world. They feature a 2.5 mm zirconia ceramic ferrule and a push-pull snap-lock mechanism, allowing quick installation while providing secure and reliable fibre optic connections. SC connectors remain the preferred choice for Fibre-to-the-Home (FTTH), GPON, XGS-PON, telecommunications, CATV, Optical Distribution Frames (ODFs), enterprise networking, and fibre patch panels because of their durability, ease of use, and excellent optical performance.
At Fiber Optics Kenya, we supply premium SC/APC and SC/UPC fibre connectors manufactured to international standards for both Single Mode (OS2) and Multimode (OM1, OM2, OM3, and OM4) fibre optic cables. Every connector is precision engineered using premium zirconia ceramic ferrules to ensure low insertion loss, excellent return loss, and long-term reliability. Our SC fibre connectors are compatible with fusion splicing, mechanical splicing, field termination kits, fibre patch cords, pigtails, and patch panels.

SC Fibre Connectors are among the easiest fibre optic connectors to install because of their simple push-pull locking mechanism and robust construction. The video above demonstrates how SC fibre connectors are prepared, terminated, and installed onto fibre optic cables for use in FTTH networks, telecommunications systems, ODFs, fibre patch panels, and enterprise networking infrastructure.
One of the biggest advantages of SC connectors is their versatility. They are available in both SC/UPC (blue) and SC/APC (green) versions, allowing installers to select the appropriate connector based on the application. SC/APC connectors feature an 8-degree angled polish that minimizes optical reflections and are preferred for GPON, FTTH, CATV, and passive optical networks, while SC/UPC connectors are commonly used in enterprise LANs, telecommunications, media converters, switches, and general optical networking. SC connectors should always be matched with the same polish type—APC to APC and UPC to UPC—for optimal performance.
At Fiber Optics Kenya, we supply premium SC Fibre Connectors together with fibre optic cables, fibre patch cords, pigtails, adapters, ODFs, splice closures, media converters, SFP modules, OTDR testing equipment, fusion splicing services, and complete fibre optic installation solutions. Our experienced engineers provide expert consultation, professional installation support, and nationwide delivery for projects throughout Kenya.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
1. What is an SC Fibre Connector?
An SC Fibre Connector is a fibre optic connector with a 2.5 mm ceramic ferrule and a push-pull snap-lock mechanism designed for fast, secure optical connections.
2. What is the price of SC Fibre Connectors in Kenya?
SC Fibre Connectors generally cost between KES 120 and KES 700, depending on the connector type, polishing option, and installation method.
3. What is the difference between SC/APC and SC/UPC?
SC/APC connectors use an 8-degree angled polish (green) and provide 60 dB or higher return loss, while SC/UPC connectors use a flat ultra-polished ferrule (blue) with approximately 50 dB or higher return loss.
4. Can SC/APC and SC/UPC connectors be connected together?
No. SC/APC and SC/UPC connectors should not be directly mated because the different polishing angles increase insertion loss and may damage the connector end faces.
5. Where are SC Fibre Connectors commonly used?
They are widely used in FTTH, GPON, telecommunications, CATV, enterprise networks, ODFs, fibre patch panels, and fibre termination boxes.
6. What is an SC Fast Connector?
An SC Fast Connector is a field-installable connector that allows fibre optic termination without fusion splicing, making it ideal for rapid installations and repairs.
7. Why buy SC Fibre Connectors from Fiber Optics Kenya?
Fiber Optics Kenya offers genuine fibre optic products, competitive pricing, expert technical support, professional installation services, nationwide delivery, and dependable after-sales support.
