I Bought the Wrong Fiber Cable… So I Cut It and Spliced It (SC APC Fix)

I bought the wrong fiber cable… so instead of returning it, I cut it and spliced it. Let’s see if this actually works. In this video I show how to fix the wrong fiber connector by splicing LC to SC APC, and explain the difference between SC APC and SC UPC. If you’ve ever had a fiber cable that just won’t fit — this is probably why. I accidentally bought an LC fiber cable when I needed SC APC… so I used a fusion splicer to fix it instead of wasting it. In this video: * LC vs SC APC vs SC UPC explained * Why fiber connectors don’t match * How to splice fiber step-by-step * Testing the connection after the splice This is a real-world fix, not just theory — exactly the kind of problem you’ll run into working with fiber. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🎁 **GIVEAWAY!** Jonard Tools hooked me up with some gear, and I’m giving it away!
