FC APC Single Mode Fiber Optic Connector ∮ 2.5mm
The fiber optic connector is one of the most basic components in optical fiber communications system. The earliest few types including FC connector, SC connector and MU connector were developed by NTT in Japan and the Germany designed DIN 47256 type. In order to reduce footprint, Bell Labs developed the LC fiber connector with a small volume to save space. With rapid advances in fiber optic technology over the past decades, these fiber optic connectors have gained widespread popularity in the world.
We also employ a third-party specialist to inspect and verify the quality of our components to be used in the production of our fiber optic connectors. Assessments show that our raw material is compliant with related Chinese standard and ROHS standard.
Of course our optic fiber connector can be specially made to meet customer specific requirements.
