LC Fiber Optic Connector LC stands for Lucent Connector. LC connector is push and pull type. The LC Connector uses a 1.25 mm ferrule, half the size of the ST.An optical fiber connector terminates the end of an optical fiber, and enables quicker connection and disconnection than splicing. The connectors mechanically couple and align the cores of fibers, so the light can pass. Better connectors lose very little light due to reflection or misalignment of the fibers.
There are solid reasons that the LC is the preferred connector for high-performance network. From the appearance, LC connect is like a mini size of SC connector. LC connector borrows split-sleeve construction and a cylindrical ferrule (usually ceramic) from SC connector. LC connector has a push-and-latch design providing pull-proof stability in system rack mounts. The picture on the right shows the appearance of SC connector and LC connector.
LC Simplex Connector is specially designed to provide low insertion loss and back reflection or misalignment of the fibers. along with high precision and mechanical stability. Its insertion loss is less than 0.3dB and return loss is up to 60dB .
