Description
Why non-adjustable?
Unlike adjustable connectors, this model uses a factory-fixed ferrule structure.
That means every connector is aligned and set during production, giving you:
-
More consistent optical performance
-
Faster cable assembly
-
Lower rejection rate
-
Better batch-to-batch uniformity
This makes it especially suitable for mass production of fiber patch cords and pigtails, which is exactly what professional manufacturers such as Changzhou Fenxi Optoelectronics Technology Co., Ltd. focus on.
Designed for 2.0mm & 3.0mm fiber cables
This connector supports the two most common fiber jacket sizes:
| Cable Type | Typical Use |
|---|---|
| 2.0mm | Indoor patch cords, equipment jumpers |
| 3.0mm | Telecom-grade patch cords, backbone links |
Whether you are building short equipment jumpers or long-distance telecom patch cords, this FC PC connector fits both without changing the internal optical structure.
Optical performance you can rely on
| Parameter | Typical Performance |
|---|---|
| Fiber Type | Single-mode 9/125 µm |
| Polish Type | PC (Physical Contact) |
| Insertion Loss | ≤ 0.30 dB |
| Return Loss | ≥ 45 dB |
| Operating Wavelength | 1310 nm / 1550 nm |
| Mating Life | ≥ 1000 cycles |
These values meet the standard requirements for telecom, FTTH, and enterprise optical networks.
Built for real network environments
| Feature | Specification |
|---|---|
| Connector Type | FC PC |
| Cable Size | 2.0mm / 3.0mm |
| Ferrule | Zirconia ceramic |
| Coupling | Threaded metal screw |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +75°C |
| Tensile Strength | ≥ 200 N |
The FC threaded coupling ensures that once connected, the fiber stays locked in place — even in racks, cabinets, or outdoor telecom enclosures.
Where this connector is commonly used
You will find FC PC 2.0/3.0mm connectors in:
-
Telecom backbone and access networks
-
FTTH and PON systems
-
Fiber patch cords and pigtails
-

Anywhere stable, low-loss fiber connections are needed, this connector fits in naturally.
Professional Q&A
Q1: Can FC PC and FC APC be connected together?
No. FC PC has a flat end face, while FC APC is angled. Connecting them will cause high loss and may damage the ferrule.
Q2: When should I choose 2.0mm instead of 3.0mm?
2.0mm is typically used for equipment jumpers and indoor patch cords, while 3.0mm is preferred for telecom and backbone cables with higher mechanical strength.
Q3: Is non-adjustable better than adjustable?
For factory-made patch cords and pigtails, yes. Non-adjustable connectors give better consistency, faster assembly, and more stable optical quality.
