Fiber Optic Connectors – Accessories: SC/FC/APC-GB Application Field and Working Principle

Fiber optic connectors are components that are used to link fiber optic cables together or to connect with the other fiber optic devices. There are three main types of fiber optic connectors including SC/FC/APC-GB connectors.

SC connectors are the oldest and most popular types of fiber optic connectors. They are easy to install and use. These connectors are available in single-mode and multi-mode versions and can be used as either a terminator or a repeater in fiber optic cable systems. The working principles of these connectors are similar to that of the ST connectors. They provide a secure connection between two optical fibers by means of a snap-in feature. The main drawbacks of SC connectors are that they are not as robust as FC connectors and they are not suitable for high-speed data transfer.

FC connectors are like the SC connectors, but they feature a more robust design and a much higher transfer rate. FC type connectors are generally used as repeaters in fiber optic cable systems. The working principle of these connectors is similar to that of SC connectors, but they are much more reliable and are better suited for high-speed data transfer.

APC-GB connectors are the most recent type of fiber optic connectors. They feature an angled-ferrule design that makes them more suitable for certain applications. These connectors use an internalspring-loaded mechanism to create a secure connection between two fibers. The working principle of these connectors is similar to that of FC connectors, but they are more suitable for applications that require high-speed data transfer and maximum durability.

There are various industrial applications where these different types of fiber optic connectors are used. SC connectors are generally used in short distance applications, such as patch panels and fiberoptic cable terminations. FC connectors are used for longer distance applications, such as repeater systems and high-speed data transfer. APC-GB connectors are used in applications where maximum durability and data rate are required.

In conclusion, the three main types of fiber optic connectors, including SC/FC/APC-GB, are used in a wide range of applications. SC connectors are suitable for short-distance applications, FC connectors are suitable for longer-distance applications and APC-GB connectors are suitable for applications where high-speed data transfer and maximum durability are required. The working principle for all three types of connectors is similar, but the design of each type of connector is optimized for its particular application.
