connectoroptical-fibre
I am trying to find the name of fibre optics cable connector, so a fibre optic cable can be used on my design, does it have a official name? for about the past half hour – an hour I have been googling to find it, but so far have come up with nothing.
Like the connectors used on this internet switch:
This maybe a not very precise description:
4 Pin Female Inline Microphone Connector: These circular connectors are most commonly used for microphones, but they are rugged, multi-pin connectors suitable for a wide variety of uses. Each connector is keyed to ensure proper polarity. They provide a threaded locking ring for reliable contact under extreme shock and vibration. These connectors are great for mobile use and can handle both voice, data and power applications. Includes a built in strain relief
According to
More precisely the are called "Coaxicon" by TE; here's a brochure http://www.farnell.com/datasheets/595245.pdf. Beware that they come in several sizes. It looks like yours are the "miniature" version (there's also "subminiature" and "size 8"). Since it seems you want the PCB-mount socket (there's also a cable mount):

Your photo appears to be SFP/SFP+ transceivers.
SFP isn't really a connector type, is a transceiver standard. The actual connector (on the switch side) is a board edge connector, the other side can be a wide variety of connectors.
If it's the actual fibre connector you're talking about, probably LC connector, which is the optical connector used in just about every optical SFP module (LC connectors can be used for both SMF and MMF).
