FC Single Mode Male to Female Built-out Attenuator 

It can also be:

FC/APC Male to Female Built-out Attenuator

FC Multimode Male to Female Built-out Attenuator

Fiber optic attenuators are used in the fiber optic communications to reduce the optical fiber power at a certain level, the most commonly used type is female to male plug type fiber optic attenuator, it has the optical fiber connector at one side and the other side is a female type fiber optic adapter, fiber optic attenuator name is based on the connector type and the attenuation level. FC 2dB fiber optic attenuator means this attenuator uses FC fiber optic connector and it can reduce the optical fiber power level by 2dB. Commonly used attenuation range is from 1dB to 25dB, and it is also available to provid upto 30dB.
