LC APC Fiber optic connector 0.9mm 2.0mm 3.0mm

     LC fiber optic connector (Lucent Connector) is a small form-factor fiber optic connector known for its compact design and high performance. It is commonly used in high-density fiber optic networks, especially in data centers and telecommunications systems where space-saving is critical.

Features:

Small Form Factor: The LC connector is about half the size of the SC connector, making it ideal for high-density network environments. Its smaller size allows for more connections in a given space, which is particularly beneficial in racks, panels, and other crowded network setups.

Push-Pull Design with Latch Mechanism: LC connectors have a "push-pull" design with a latch to secure the connection. This design provides easy insertion and removal without the need for tools.

1.25mm Ferrule: The LC connector uses a 1.25mm ceramic ferrule, smaller than the SC connector’s 2.5mm ferrule. This smaller ferrule supports high-precision alignment and low signal loss.

Single-Mode and Multi-Mode Compatibility: LC connectors are available for both single-mode and multi-mode fibers. Single-mode LC connectors are often yellow, while multi-mode ones are usually orange or aqua, depending on the fiber type.

High Performance: LC connectors are known for their low insertion loss (minimal signal reduction) and high return loss (minimal signal reflection), which makes them suitable for high-speed, high-performance networks.

Application: 

LC connectors are widely used in high-density patch panels, telecommunications, data centers, FTTH (Fiber to the Home) systems, and other network environments that require compact and reliable fiber connections.
