What is a fiber optic adapter and what does the color indicate?

A fiber optic adapter serves to join two optical connectors by aligning the fibers present in the adapter and/or in the connector. Each end of an adapter can be male or female.

The female adapters normally face the connectors and align their fibers, so they are not normally specific for a specific polish, but the user can decide the type of polish that connects at the ends. The color of a female adapter does not force the use of a specific fiber type and polish, but it is recommended to respect it to easily identify the type of fiber connected.

Male adapters include a ceramic or plastic ferrule that protects and aligns the fiber as it is inserted into the female end. This ferrule has a polish and the user needs to make sure that the polish type of the other end is compatible. The color of a male adapter identifies the fiber type and polish.

To guarantee a link with the lowest possible light losses, it is essential that the two fibers that are connected to the adapter have a compatible polish:

  • The APC (Angle Physical Contact) polish has an 8º angle cut, and is only compatible with other APC polishes.
  • The PC (Physical contact) polish has a convex cut, and is compatible with other convex polishes, such as PC itself and also UPC.
  • UPC (Ultra Physical contact) polishing has a convex cut, finer than PC, and is therefore compatible with both PC and UPC polishing.

The color of the adapter helps identify the fiber type and polish of the connected fiber at a glance, and manufacturers generally follow these recommendations:

  • Green: singlemode (SM) fibers with APC polishing.
  • Blue: Singlemode fibers (SM) with polished PC or UPC.
  • Beige: multimode fibers (MM), polishing not identified.

At Televes we follow this recommendation to facilitate the installation and maintenance of fiber networks and avoid possible confusion in the connectorization.
