optical fiber is a thin cylindrical fiber made from glass or plasticthat is as tiny as one tenth of human hair. The standard optical fiber in telecom comprises three layers of cylindrical shape, arranged from the inside out: fiber core (diameter 8~10um), cladding (diameter 130um) along with buffer coating (diameter 9000um).
Fiber core and cladding is made of glass or silica. The fiber core and the Cladding layers are used to keep the light within the core and prevent it from leaking. The fiber buffer coating is constructed from acrylic or plastic and offers handling flexibility as well as physical protection for the fiber.
Optic fibers make use of an optical phenomenon called total internal reflection. When light is injected into the fiber from end face, it is kept inside the core without spilling out and losing energy.

What are fiber optic connectors and what do they do?
You now know the way optical fibers function. What is a fiber optic connector and what’s the purpose of a fiber optic telecommunication network?
Simply put The fiber optic connector’s job is similar to that of an electric power plug that connects light from one segment of optical fiber to another segment of optical fiber.
Because optical fibers are tiny that fiber optic connectors need to be constructed with high precision, at the size of 0.1um that is just one centimeter of a human hair.
Fiber optic connectors are positioned to align two fibers from end to end in a way that light can be transferred from one fiber to another without bouncing off the interface and loss its signal.
Besides, fiber optic connectors provide cross connect flexibility for the telecommunication network. So a complicated computer network can be modularized and simple to manage.
Like other connectors used in electric industry, electronic industry, and the computer industry, a variety of kinds and types of connectors for fiber optics were invented during the evolution of the fiber optic communication industry. Some of them once were highly popular in the market and now have been used for a variety of purposes, but are now disappearing.
The most widely used fiber optic connectors that are used today include SC, ST, LC, FC, MTRJ, SMA and a few other less popular ones. Sure you will see new connectors invented with the advancement of technology.
