Hi, we are looking into polishing both FC/PC and FC/APC fibre connectors. Do we need both the FC/APC NOVA™ Workholder and NOVA™ Universal UPC Workholder for FC/SC/ST/LC/MU/SMA Connectors, or does the universal workholder cover FC/APC too? Thanks in advance

You will need two NOVA polishing workholder fixtures for your FC/PC and FC/APC connector application.
