Why Choose the Ilme CLK04SCM Male Fibre Optic Adapter Insert?
The Ilme CLK04SCM is a compact male adapter insert with four seats for SC fibre optic contacts, designed to integrate optical data connections into Ilme industrial connector enclosures. Part of the CLK fibre optic range, it uses the compact size 21.21 format and provides four dedicated positions for compatible SC optical contacts.
Designed specifically for SC fibre optic contacts, the CLK04SCM can be used with Ilme CL 125 SC contacts for 50/125 µm or 62.5/125 µm graded-index fibre and CL POF SC contacts for 1 mm polymer optical fibre. This flexibility makes the adapter suitable for industrial optical communication systems where electrical interference immunity and reliable data transmission are important.
The adapter insert is supplied with a stainless steel fixing screw and gasket. When installed with a suitable Ilme enclosure, this arrangement supports IP66, IP67 and IP69 ingress protection. With an insulation resistance of at least 10 GΩ and an operating temperature range from -40 to +70 °C, the CLK04SCM is engineered for robust industrial data connectivity.

Industrial Fibre Optic Connectivity in a Compact Format
Fibre optic communication provides excellent immunity to electromagnetic interference, making it particularly useful around motors, drives, switching equipment and other electrically noisy industrial systems. The Ilme CLK04SCM allows up to four compatible SC fibre optic contacts to be incorporated into a rugged industrial connector enclosure while occupying only a compact size 21.21 interface.
The adapter can be configured for common 50/125 µm and 62.5/125 µm graded-index fibres using CL 125 SC contacts or for 1 mm POF using CL POF SC contacts. This modular approach allows the fibre technology to be selected according to the communication system while retaining the mechanical protection of the Ilme industrial connector platform.
Typical Applications
- Industrial Ethernet and fibre optic data links.
- Machinery and factory automation systems.
- Industrial networks in electrically noisy environments.
- Control and instrumentation equipment.
- Robotics and automated production systems.
- OEM equipment requiring detachable multi-channel optical connections.
