Overview
The SC Bulkhead Laser Safety Cap is designed to protect both network components and technicians. These caps serve a dual purpose: they prevent harmful exposure to active laser radiation during maintenance or troubleshooting and shield the inner split sleeves of fiber optic adapters from dust and environmental contaminants.
Designed for bulkhead mounting, these caps are essential for maintaining the integrity of unused ports in patch panels and backplanes. By preventing contamination, they help ensure optimal signal performance and reduce the need for cleaning before future connections. Each pack contains 25 caps.
