Why Choose an Adjustable FC PC 0.9mm Connector?
Compared with non-adjustable connectors, the adjustable FC PC 0.9mm provides:
-
More precise fiber end-face control
-
Better consistency in polishing results
-
Lower insertion loss across batches
-
Higher yield in cable assembly production
This makes it especially suitable for professional fiber optic manufacturers and high-end cable assemblies.
Professional Q&A
Q1: What is the advantage of an adjustable FC connector?
A: The adjustable design allows the ferrule to be precisely positioned during assembly and polishing, ensuring optimal fiber protrusion and end-face geometry, which leads to lower loss and more consistent performance.
Q2: Is FC PC compatible with FC APC?
A: No. FC PC (flat polish) and FC APC (angled polish) connectors should not be mated together, as this can cause high insertion loss and potential ferrule damage.
Q3: Why is 0.9mm commonly used for pigtails and patch cords?
A: 0.9mm tight-buffer fiber is flexible, compact, and ideal for indoor use, making it perfect for fiber pigtails, patch cords, and equipment interconnections.
