Fiber Optic Pigtails
OVERVIEW
A Fiber Optic Pigtail is a short, Pre-Terminated Fiber Cable with an optical connector on one end and an un-terminated end on the other. Often used for mechanical or fusion splicing within termination boxes, panels, ODFs, or splice closures, it plays a vital role in organizing and extending fiber networks while minimizing signal loss.
VARIATIONS
-
SC/LC/FC Pigtail
– Popular for telecom installs, data centers, and enterprise networks; connectors are factory-polished for optimum performance. -
High-Quality Single-Mode Pigtail
– Delivers long-range transmissions with minimal loss, making it ideal for backbone connections and extended distances. -
Multimode OM3/OM4 Pigtail
– Designed for high-speed performance over shorter distances, suitable for data center or LAN applications. -
Factory-Polished LC Pigtail for Data Center Splicing
– Ensures precise alignment and low insertion loss for critical splicing in high-density environments. -
Low Insertion Loss, Color-Coded Fiber Pigtails for Telecom Installs
– Simplifies identification and management during installation or maintenance work, greatly reducing error risk. -
900µm Fiber Pigtail
– Adds an extra layer of protection with a 900µm jacket, typically used for tight-buffered splicing and increased durability.
KEY FEATURES
- Single-Mode & Multimode: Choose based on distance and data transfer requirements.
- Varied Connector Types: SC, LC, FC, ST, E2000 (including APC or UPC polishing).
- Diameter Options: 0.9 mm, 2 mm, or 3 mm cable jackets match different installation needs.
