An LC-LC fiber optic connector is a type of small form factor (SFF) connector used to connect two LC fiber optic cables or patch cords. Here are some key points about LC-LC connectors:

Key Features

1. Size: LC connectors are compact, measuring only 1.25 mm in diameter, making them ideal for high-density applications.
2. Design: They use a push-pull mechanism with a latch to ensure a secure and precise connection.
3. Polishing: LC connectors come in two main polishing types: UPC (Ultra Physical Contact) and APC (Angled Physical Contact). UPC connectors have a flat end face, while APC connectors have an 8-degree angled end face to minimize back reflection.
4. Versatility: LC connectors are used in both simplex (single fiber) and duplex (two fibers) configurations.
