Contact UsHome / What does FC mean in single-mode fiber optic cable
The FC connector or ferrule connector is synthesized for singlemode fiber optic optics and has become very popular because of its reliability. A fiber optic connector is a mechanical device that allows two fibers to be joined precisely, enabling light to pass with minimal insertion loss and reflection. They have a central core surrounded by a concentric cladding with slightly lower (by ≈ 1%) refractive index. Single-mode fiber (SM): Single-mode fiber only supports one mode of a light signal.

Single Mode fibers are identified by the designation OS or Optical Single-mode Fiber. Single Mode cable has a much smaller core (8-9um) than multimode cable and uses a single path (mode) to carry the light.
