The Tempo SC to LC Adapter is used to convert the launch cable to LC connectors. Launch cables are used to reduce the effect dead zones, caused by mechanical connection of the OTDR to the fibre under test. Constructing a backscatter trace before the near end connector enables the individual to evaluate the connector for insertion and return loss. This can also be known as a pulse suppressor.
