Although the zirconia ferrules appear to be just a simple ceramic cylinder, the outer diameter (OD) of the ferrules is. The ferrule is the housing for the exposed end of a fiber, designed to be connected to another fiber, or into a transmitter or receiver. In fiber optic communication systems, the polishing type of fiber patch cord interfaces directly affects key performance metrics such as insertion loss (signal attenuation during transmission) and return loss (unwanted signal reflection).
