Plug Type Optical Terminator, ST, FC, SC, LC, MU Plug Type Optical Terminator
Optical Terminators are used to terminate unused fiber connector ports in fiber optic systems so optical terminators unwanted reflections are not introduced back into the system. It is used in fiber optic network to install on the possibly unused ports. In fiber optic network there may be unused ports in the whole system; such unused ports will create unwanted return loss and degrade the whole network performance.

Structure of optical terminator
Optical Terminators are functional devices using Metal-Ion Doped Fibers. These products prevent the reflection of light that are present at open end systems. By using Metal-Ion Doped Fibers, these optical terminators convert the optical power into heat and the power is attenuated inside the devices. The structures of the plug type optical terminators are simple and the power-proof and performance stability is superior.
Plug type optical terminator
Plug type optical terminators are used to terminate dark fiber port on the fiber optic component. Their ceramic ferrule is polished with an angled or non-angled end face to reduce un-want reflections from open ports. These optical terminator also provide improved personal safety over termination methods. Plug type optical terminator can also be used with fiber adaptors at the male plug end, They can be easily installed into panel mount receptacles to significantly reduce reflections from the fiber face.
LFO provide all types of plug type optical terminator including SC, FC, ST, LC and MU type connector with high quality Ceramic (Zirconia) Ferrules
