RiteAV Fiber Optic Keystone Coupler SC Singlemode APC White

I have an old patch panel from before they had fiber. When the internet company installed fiber they just pulled one of the knockouts and ran the fiber through the hole. The coupler fit the hole, and I was able to plug the fiber connection into it. Ran fiber from the coupler to the router, and we were good. Has been working fine since it was installed.

I didn’t want to make another hole in my wall for the AT&T wall plate being I already have keystone jacks available. I wasn’t sure if the connection was SC or not, but it is and this jack fits tight. I couldn’t find this locally so I bought it here which basically has a $10 shipping cost in the price, but it was worth it to not have another hole in my wall.

Perfect for a wallplate with keystones for a new home fiber internet line. Our service is with Armstrong, and the original full plate the installer had was gigantic. Had them remove the coupler from their plate to hold the lines together until this keystone arrived.

Good white color and excellent fitment in a standard keystone wall plate. My experience: the coupler stayed in the keystone adapter until I inserted it into the face plate at which point even a small amount of force (like when mating the fiber cable) would push the coupler out of the keystone adapter and into the wall behind the face plate. Turns out the sides of the keystone opening in the face plate would push the metal wings on the coupler in, releasing the hold tension on the coupler. Super glue to the rescue. I simply bonded the coupler at each side where the green tabs touched the back walls of the keystone adapter.

I had Frontier fiber home internet installed. I didn’t like how the cable just came out of the wall plate. Since it was already a keystone plate bought this with a jumper and it worked great.
