Fiber Optic Connectors Introduction
ST is currently the most popular multimode connector because it is cheap and easy to install. The SC connector was specified as a standard by the old EIA/TIA 568A specification, but its
higher cost and difficult installation has limited its popularity. However, newer SCs are much better in both cost and installation ease, so it has been growing in use.
Duplex FDDI, ESCON and SC connectors are used for patchcords to equipment and can be connected to ST or SC connectors at wall outlets.
Singlemode networks use of FC or SC connectors is about same with ST and SC in multimode installations. D4 is seldom used these days. |
