FC Fiber Optic Patch Cord

FC Fiber Optic Patch cord was one of the most popular single-mode patch cords for many years. It also uses a 2.5 mm ferrule, but some of the early ones use ceramic inside stainless steel ferrules. It screws on firmly, but you must make sure you have the key aligned in the slot properly before tightening. It's been mostly replaced by SCs and LCs. However, as a result of this characteristics for easy assemblies and installation, Our FC Fiber Optic Patch cords are every competitive.
The FC/PC patch cord incorporates a Physical Contact (PC) curved polished fiber end face that greatly reduces back-reflection over the regular FC patch cord with flat end-face ferrule.
The Telecomposer FC/PC patch cord is available in both single-mode and multimode versions, and is fully inter-mateable with NTT-FC products. Both single-mode and multimode versions come with a zirconia ceramic ferrule with pre-polished PC profile and convex spherical end. These end-face types allow for faster polishing, and low back reflection and optical loss, while ensuring maximum repeatability.
Telecomposer offers an FC Tunable Patch cord with four-position tuning for applications requiring precise fiber alignment. A specially designed FC PM Patch cord is available for use with Polarization Maintaining Fiber.
