ST ST connectors have a bayonet mount and a long cylindrical spring-loaded ferrule to hold the fibre. Most ferrules are ceramic, but some are metal or plastic.
LC/LCAPC The LC connector uses a 1.25 mm ferrule and is approximately half the size of the SC. Otherwise, it's a standard ceramic ferrule connector, easily terminated with any adhesive. Good performance, highly favoured for singlemode.
FC/FCAPC FC/PC has been one of the most popular singlemode connectors for many years. It screws on firmly, but make sure you have the key aligned in the slot properly before tightening.
