Fibre SC-LC patch lead help!

Some questions for the fibre/fiber gurus out there... I've ordered some RS485-over-fibre converters that have a simplex "SC-PC" connector type (they use full duplex communication over a single fibre using different wavelengths). The patch panels on the site are duplex LC.

Questions:

  1. Is "SC-PC" the same as "SC"?

  2. I'm having difficulty finding simplex LC-SC patch leads, but there are obviously lots of duplex options... Would I still be able to use these? I.e. should I be able to just simply plug in one side of the SC duplex connector? Or can I split a duplex SC connector in half?

Thanks in advance guys and girls!

Edit: The units I'm using are the AMG5413 and 5414: http://www.amgsystems.com/products/technology/analogue-fibre/AMG5413
