Simplex FC / APC Optical Fiber Connector For Communication Network​

FC fiber optic connectors are simplex only, screw-on mechanism. Available in single mode and multimode.

FC connector has a 2.5mm ferrule (made of ceramic (zirconia) or stainless alloy) . It is specifically designed for telecommunication applications and provides non-optical disconnect performance. Designed with a threaded coupling for durable connections. It has been the most popular single mode connectors for many years.

FC optical fiber connector is a reusable passive component which could be applied in fiber and Cable connection. They are widely used in ODF, ODN, PON etc.

The FC was the first optical fiber connector to use a ceramic ferrule, but unlike the plastic bodied SC and LC, it utilizes a round screw-type fitment made from nickel-plated or stainless steel. The connector end face relies on an alignment key for correct insertion and is then tightened into the adaptor/jack using a threaded collet. Despite the additional complexity both in manufacturing and installation, it’s still the connector of choice for precise measuring equipment such as OTDRs.

Initially intended for datacoms and telecoms applications, its use has reduced since the introduction of the SC and LC. These deliver similar performance to the FC but both have less expensive components and are quicker to connect. However, the screw-on collet of the FC does make it particularly effective in high vibration environments, ensuring that the spring-loaded ferrule is firmly mated.
