FC fiber optic connector with a threaded body, was designed for use in high-vibration environments, 2.5mm ceramic ferrule or stainless steel metal ferrule with pull-proof mechanism for durability. It is designed with cylindrical metal coupling nut with keyed sleeves, widely used in long haul and local network connections, cable assemblies, especially on test equipment interface.
FC connectors includes single mode UPC, APC connector and multimode UPC connector. UPC type connector boot usually is black, APC boot is green color.
