What types of connector are use for cabling fiber?

Common types of connectors used for fiber optic cabling include SC (Subscriber Connector), LC (Lucent Connector), ST (Straight Tip), and MTP/MPO (Multi-Fiber Push On/Multi-Fiber Pull Off). SC and LC connectors are popular for single-fiber connections, while ST connectors are often used in older installations. MTP/MPO connectors are designed for high-density applications, allowing multiple fibers to be connected simultaneously. Each connector type has its unique features suited to various networking needs.
