  • Fiber optic cold connector FC-FC

    Fiber optic cold connector FC-FC

    The FC connector is a fiber-optic connector with a threaded body, which was designed for use in high-vibration environments. It is commonly used with both single-mode optical fiber and polarization-maintaining optical fiber. FC connectors are used in datacom, telecommunications, measurement equipment, and single-mode lasers. They are becoming less common, displaced by SC an. DesignThe fiber end is embedded in a 2.5 mm ferrule made of ceramic or. The tip is then typically polished to produce a rounded surface, called "physical contact" polish. This surface profile means that when t. FC connectors' floating ferrule provides good mechanical isolation. FC connectors need to be mated more carefully than push-pull type connectors due to the need to align the key, and due to the risk of scratching t.
