LC and SC connectors offer several advantages over MTRJ connectors in terms of performance and reliability. Some of the key advantages are:
1.Higher Data Rates: LC and SC connectors are designed to support higher data rates than MTRJ connectors. They are capable of supporting data rates up to 10 Gbps or higher, while the maximum data rate supported by MTRJ connectors is typically 2 Gbps.
2.Lower Insertion Loss: LC and SC connectors have lower insertion loss than MTRJ connectors. Insertion loss is the amount of light that is lost when a connector is mated, and it can affect the quality of the optical signal. LC and SC connectors have lower insertion loss, which means they can transmit signals over longer distances with less signal degradation.
3.Better Return Loss: LC and SC connectors also have better return loss than MTRJ connectors. Return loss is a measure of the amount of light that is reflected back towards the source, and it can cause interference and reduce signal quality. LC and SC connectors have better return loss, which means they can provide a clearer and more reliable signal.
4.Smaller Size: LC and SC connectors are smaller than MTRJ connectors, which makes them more compact and easier to use in high-density applications. This is particularly important in data centers and other environments where space is at a premium.
5.Compatibility: LC and SC connectors are more widely used and more compatible with a wider range of equipment than MTRJ connectors. This makes them a more versatile and flexible choice for networking applications.
