Fiber Diameter Converter (FDC)
Fibre Diameter Converters (FDCs) are special multimode patch cords which enable, for instance, transmission elements with a 62.5μm fibre pigtail output to be used without reflection with 50μm fibre-optical networks. FDCs are therefore used in particular when a new future-proof backbone network has to be set up with an OM3 fibre, but for cost reasons the old system technology with 62.5μm pigtail outputs is still to be used at the start.
