Panduit Aqua SC Male Connector
This Panduit FSC2MCXAQ is a fiber optic simplex network connector with an SC male interface and an aqua coloured housing. It uses a zirconia ceramic ferrule and arrives pre-polished for immediate termination. The connector is booted and designed for tight‑buffer cable, supplied as a single unit.
Suits Multimode Fiber Patch Cords
Installers terminating OM3 or OM4 multimode patch cords will find the aqua colour code and pre‑polished ferrule convenient for quick field assembly. It is not intended for single‑mode applications, for APC polished interfaces, or for duplex connectors requiring a paired housing.
Zirconia Ceramic Ferrule with Pre‑Polished Finish
The zirconia ceramic ferrule is factory pre‑polished, removing the need for hand polishing during installation. This specification determines whether the connector matches the performance and workflow requirements of the specific fiber deployment.

Questions about this item
What fiber diameter fits the SC male connector's tight-buffer design?
The connector is built for tight-buffer fiber, so the buffered coating seats directly without loose-tube handling.
Which polishing step is already finished on this pre-polished SC connector?
The ferrule end-face is factory polished; you only cleave the fiber and insert it — no polishing film or puck is required.
When should the zirconia ceramic ferrule be replaced?
Replace the connector if insertion loss rises above your link budget or the ferrule end-face shows scratches or contamination that cleaning cannot remove.
