A fiber panel uses a square connector that is larger than LC and pushes on rather than twisting like a bayonet. Which connector is that?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
The plug is the bigger square one, and it pushes on instead of twisting. You want an SC connector. The smaller square, the bayonet, and a coax thread are different plugs.
Full Explanation
SC is the larger square fiber connector, and it pushes on. LC is the smaller square connector, so calling LC the larger plug reverses them. ST is the bayonet connector. It twists to lock. It does not push straight on. F-type is the threaded coax connector. It is not a square fiber plug. Exam caveat: SC and LC can both be square and both can carry the same fiber. The size is the tell in this stem. Operational check: match the patch cord to the panel port and confirm it seats with a push, not a twist. Seat the connector until it clicks, then check the link light on that port. Write what you found on the ticket. Confirm the link light after the connector seats with a push. A loose connector will fail the link even when the type is right.
