Connector types and polish
If the specification does not name a connector type, or you are not sure which one fits the panel you have, these two tables will settle it.
| Connector | Latching | Typical use | Note |
|---|---|---|---|
| SC | Push-pull, square body | FTTH, patch panels — the most common type | Simplex and duplex bodies |
| LC | Push-pull, small body | SFP modules, high-density panels | Takes half the space of an SC |
| ST | Bayonet, quarter turn | Older multimode installations | Largely replaced by SC and LC |
| FC | Screw thread | Test instruments, high-vibration environments | The thread holds the mating firmly in place |
| E2000 | Push-pull, spring shutter | Carrier networks | The shutter blocks both dust and laser light |
| MTRJ | Push-pull, duplex | Older active equipment ports | Carries two fibers in one body |
| MPO / MTP | Push-pull, multi-fiber | Data centre backbone, 40G and 100G | 12 ends per row, up to 72 fibers |
PC, UPC and APC polish
| Polish | Body colour | Typical return loss | Where it is asked for |
|---|---|---|---|
| PC | — | about −40 dB | Older installations |
| UPC | Blue (singlemode) | about −50 dB | Data and LAN links |
| APC | Green | about −60 dB | FTTH, cable TV, RF-over-fiber |
APC and UPC must never be mated: the 8° angled face does not seat against a flat face and damages both connectors. The figures in the table are typical — the binding value is the one on the selected product’s data sheet, which we send with the quote.
Delivery, stock and lead time
We are the Turkey distributor for all four. If the specification names a brand we supply that one; if it does not, we recommend on lead time, budget and quality class.
