[0017] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features, and advantages of the utility model more obvious and understandable, the following further describes the utility model in detail with reference to the drawings and specific embodiments.

[0018] Refer to Figure 1 , which shows an exploded view of an embodiment of an SC to LC fiber optic adapter of the utility model, and specifically may include: an LC socket 1, an SC socket 2, an elastic member 3, and an electrical connection member 4; the LC socket 1 and the SC socket 2 are tightly connected; the electrical connection member 4 is detachably arranged in the SC socket 2, and the connection holes of the electrical connection member 4 and the connection holes of the LC socket 1 are concentrically arranged; the elastic member 3 is snap-fitted outside the SC socket 2.

[0019] It should be noted that the LC socket 1 is a miniaturized fiber optic connector interface for fiber optic communication, designed to receive an LC male head, the SC socket 2 is a fiber optic connector interface for receiving an SC male head, the electrical connection member 4 is arranged in the SC socket 2 for connecting an SC type and an LC type fiber optic connector, the male head of the SC fiber optic connector is inserted into the SC socket 2 and electrically connected to the electrical connection member 4, and the male head of the LC fiber optic connector is inserted into the LC socket 1 and electrically connected to the electrical connection member 4, so as to realize SC to LC fiber optic conversion, or it can also be LC to SC.

[0020] Further, the electrical connector 4 includes a ceramic sleeve and a fixing block; the fixing block is detachably arranged in the SC female socket 2, and the ceramic sleeve is arranged in the fixing block; the hole of the ceramic sleeve and the connection hole of the LC female socket are concentrically arranged. It should be noted that the fixing block is used to correct the position of the ceramic sleeve in the SC female socket 2, so that the connection hole of the ceramic sleeve and the LC female socket 1 and the connection hole of the SC female socket 2 are concentrically arranged, facilitating a more stable connection with the LC fiber optic connector and the SC connector.

[0021] Further, an opening groove is formed in the side wall of the ceramic sleeve along the length direction, and the opening groove penetrates through both ends of the ceramic sleeve. The arrangement of the opening groove enables the ceramic sleeve to have a certain elasticity, facilitating insertion into the connection ports of the LC connector and the SC connector. More preferably, the ceramic sleeve is a stepped shaft, further cooperating with the fixing column to fix the position.

[0022] Further, the SC to LC fiber optic adapter further includes a front dust cover 5; the front dust cover 5 and the connection hole of the LC female socket 1 are concentrically arranged; the SC to LC fiber optic adapter further includes a rear dust cover 6; the rear dust cover 6 is embedded in the SC female socket 2. It should be noted that the front dust cover 5 and the rear dust cover 6 are used to protect the electrical connector 4 from physical damage and the intrusion of air.

[0023] Combined with Figure 2 , a schematic structural diagram of an embodiment of an SC to LC fiber optic adapter of the present invention is shown. The working principle of the present invention is described in combination: One end of the SC to LC fiber optic adapter is an SC female socket 2, and the other end is an LC female socket 1. When the SC pin is inserted into the SC female socket 2 and the LC pin is inserted into the LC female socket 1, the adapter realizes the physical connection of two different interfaces. The SC to LC fiber optic adapter is internally designed with an accurate mechanical structure to ensure that the optical fibers of the SC pin and the LC pin are physically aligned, thereby realizing the transmission of optical signals. When the optical signal is input from the SC end, the light passes through the SC pin, passes through the conversion interface inside the SC to LC fiber optic adapter, is transmitted to the LC pin, and is output from the LC end.

[0024] Finally, it should also be noted that in this text, relational terms such as first and second are only used to distinguish one entity or operation from another entity or operation, and do not necessarily require or imply any actual relationship or order between these entities or operations.
