The FC (Fiber Channel) connector is an optical fiber connector that uses a ceramic ferrule to safeguard and align the fiber tip. It is commonly used with both single-mode optical fiber and polarization-maintaining optical fiber. It has a screw-type lock that guarantees a firm and secure connection, an advantage in high-vibration situations. FC Connectors, also known as Ferrule Core Connectors, are often referred to by various names like "Fiber Channel" or "Frank Charlie" in the industry. The methods of fixing joints include fusion splicing method, V-groove method, capillary method, casing method, etc.
