What kind of pigtail is fc-sc?

　　FC-SC is a specific type of pigtail, and the following is a detailed explanation of it:

　　I. Definition and purpose

　　FC-SC pigtail refers to a FC (Ferrule Connector) connector at one end and a SC (Subscriber) connector at the other end. fiber optic jumpers for connectors. This pigtail is commonly used to connect different types of fiber optic communication devices, such as fiber optic transceivers, fiber optic switches, test equipment,

 or fiber optic distribution frames (ODFs), to enable the tranSMission of fiber optic signals between different devices or interfaces.

　　Second, the characteristics of the connector

　　FC connector: FC connector is a threaded connector that rotates the metal sleeve on the connector to achieve tight connection of the optical fiber. This connection method has high durability and stability and is often used for fixed installation and frequent plugging and unplugging occasions.

　　SC connector: The SC connector is a push-pull connector. When using it, you only need to insert the connector and push it lightly to complete the connection. The operation is simple and convenient. The design of the SC connector makes it have good dustproof and waterproof performance, and is suitable for fiber optic connections in various environments.

　　III. Optical fiber types and applications

　　FC-SC pigtail can be divided into multimode fiber jumpers and single-mode Fiber Jumpers according to the type of fiber used.

　　Multimode Fiber Patch Cords are suitable for short-distance data transmission, such as the connection between servers, storage devices, and switches in the data center. Multimode fiber has a large core diameter and can transmit multiple optical modes simultaneously, but the transmission distance is relatively short.

　　Single-mode fiber jumper: suitable for long-distance data transmission, such as connections in metropolitan area networks and wide area networks. Single-mode fiber has a small core diameter and can only transmit a single optical mode, but the transmission distance is long and the signal attenuation is small, making it suitable for long-distance communication.

　　IV. Precautions for use

　　Cleaning: When plugging and unplugging fiber optic jumpers, a dedicated fiber optic cleaning tool (such as a fiber optic cleaning pen or fiber optic cleaning paper) should be used to clean the end face of the connector to avoid dust and stains affecting the transmission quality of the fiber optic signal.

　　Storage: When not in use, the fiber jumper should be stored in a dedicated protective box or bag to avoid bending and extrusion and prevent damage to the fiber.

　　Marking: To facilitate management and identification, it is recommended to mark the corresponding device name, port number, and jumper type on both ends of the fiber optic jumper cable or cable for quick search and connection.

　　In summary, FC-SC pigtail is a fiber optic jumper with specific connector types and fiber optic types, which is widely used in fiber optic communication networks to achieve fiber optic signal transmission between different devices.
