FAQ
Is the LC 500 um connector the same size as a glass LC? The outer LC body looks like a standard LC, but the ferrule bore is sized to 500 um POF rather than 125 um glass. It will not terminate glass fiber; use it for 0.5 mm plastic fiber only.
Why Choose Us
We ship the POF-bore LC/ST/SC/FC, not generic glass connectors, so 0.5 mm plastic fiber terminates correctly.
