The SN® Mini connector is the shortest connector in the SN family and offers users the most space-efficient solution for applications demanding optimized BTW (Behind The Wall) space-saving. In combination with SN Mini connectors, as much as 14.1mm can be saved compared with standard adapters and connectors, making it the ideal solution for opto-electronic applications requiring circuit boards or other vital components to share the same space as fiber optic connectivity.
- Use only with SN Mini Adapters
- Latch locking mechanism
- Accepts 2 x 900 μm buffered fibers
- Extra small for space-limited installations

The SN Connector can be used in temperatures as low as -40°C and up to 75°C.
The SN Junior connector utilizes a latch. press the latch and it will release the connector from the adapter.
It will use 2 individual buffered fibers. Up to 900µm diameter.
The SN Junior will fit anything but a Compact or Mini series adapter.
