This guide walks through what “LC” means, the traits that make it pervasive, and the concrete LC-based solutions you'll specify, buy, or install — from jumpers and uniboot cords to adapters, attenuators, and Transceiver interfaces. It covers LC connectors, LC patch cables, uniboot designs, armored. LC stands for a type of optical connector of which the full name is Lucent Connector. It comes with the name because the LC connector was first developed by Lucent Technologies (Alcatel-Lucent for now) for telecommunication applications.
