Connectors

There are many different types of fibre optic connectors available, each with its own advantages and disadvantages. Some of the most common types of fibre optic connectors include:

• ST connectors: ST connectors are the most common type of fibre optic connector. They are simple to use and reliable, and they are available in a variety of sizes and lengths.
• SC connectors: SC connectors are similar to ST connectors, but they are slightly smaller and more compact. They are also easier to connect and disconnect, making them a good choice for applications where connectors are frequently used.
• LC connectors: LC connectors are the smallest and most compact type of fibre optic connector. They are also very easy to connect and disconnect, making them a good choice for high-density applications.
• FC connectors: FC connectors are the most durable type of fibre optic connector. They are made of metal, which makes them resistant to damage. However, they are also the most expensive type of fibre optic connector.
• MT-RJ connectors: MT-RJ connectors are a newer type of fibre optic connector that is quickly gaining popularity. They are similar to LC connectors in size and ease of use, but they are more durable and can withstand more abuse.
• MPO/MTP connectors: MPO/MTP connectors are a type of fibre optic connector that is used to connect multiple fibres in a single connector. They are often used in high-density applications where space is limited.
