Fiber-optic connectors are used to terminate the end of an optical fiber cable, providing a way to connect it to other network devices. There are many types of fiber-optic connectors available, but two of the most common ones are:

  1. SC (Subscriber Connector) - This is a square-shaped connector that has a push-pull mechanism. It is often used in data centers and telecommunication networks. SC connectors are easy to install and offer good performance.

  2. LC (Lucent Connector) - This is a small form-factor connector that uses a 1.25mm ferrule, making it half the size of the SC connector. The LC connector is often used in high-density installations, such as data centers. It is also popular in single-mode applications.

Therefore, the correct answers are A. Lucent and C. Subscriber.

Option B. Rollover is a type of cable used for console connections to network devices. Option D. Multidimension and E. Crossover are not types of fiber-optic connectors.
