Fiber Optic Pigtail

fiber-optic-pigtail

 

Products Description

A fiber pigtail is typically a fiber optic cable with one end factory pre-terminated fiber connector and the other exposed fiber. It is usually suitable for field termination using a mechanical or fusion splicer. Compared with quick termination or epoxy and polish connections placed on the field site, the pre-terminated connectors provide time-saving, superior performance, and reliability.

MANUFACTURING CAPABILITIES
Application of Fiber Optic Pigtail
 

 

Fiber optic pigtails are mainly for fast fusion splicing applications, while patch cords are for connectivity between optical transceivers, patch panels, and backbone networks.

 

Types of Fiber Pigtail
 

There are many types of fiber pigtails based on one different factor. Fiber connector types include LC pigtails, SC pigtails, ST pigtails, FC pigtails, MU pigtails, and E2000 pigtails. By fiber types, including single mode and mulitmode pigtails.

 

By Fiber Type

Generally, fiber optic pigtails are classified as multimode and single-mode fiber.

Multimode pigtails are made with 62.5/125μm or 50/125μm bulk multimode fiber cables and terminated with multimode connectors. However, if we want to classify them in more detail, we can divide them into OM1, OM2, OM3, OM4, and OM5 pigtails.

Single mode pigtails are made with 9/125μm OS1 or OS2 bulk single mode fiber cables and terminated with single mode connectors.

Generally, pigtails are utilized in 99% of single mode applications but are also used in many multimode applications.

•By Application Environment

Based on the different application environments, the fiber pigtails are classified as Regular Indoor Pigtail, Armored Pigtails, and Waterproof Pigtail.

 

 

By Fiber Count

The most common fiber pigtails have one fiber count, such as the simplex LC pigtail consists of one bare fiber with one terminated LC connector.

However, in some cases, the fiber count is also available in 2, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 48, and 72. Each fiber pigtail should be color-coded according to industry standard TIA-EIA-598-A.

•By Fiber Construnture

Based on the fiber cable structure, we can divide them into Multi-fiber bundle pigtail, multi-fiber robbin pigtail, 0.9mm pigtail, and 2.0/3.0mm pigtail.

 

Advantages Of Using Factory-terminated Pigtails
 

•Lower labor costs

Installers working with single mode fiber typically have a fusion splicer machine. With a fusion splicer, you just splice the pigtail right onto the fiber cable in a minute or less

 

•Factory guaranteed high quality

The factory-terminated pigtails are made in a controlled environment (the factory) and high quality polishing machines. The factory promises low insertion loss, high return loss (low reflection).

Each pigtail is labeled with factory-tested insertion loss and return loss. Also a serial number that you can trace to the factory measurements.

FAQ
 

 

Q: 1 How to splice Fiber Pigtail ?

A: •Mechanical Splicing
Mechanical Splicing is a simple alignment device that allows light to enter from one fiber to the other by holding the ends of the two fibers in precise alignment. This method has been around for many years. It continues to be popular because it provides immediate, straightforward termination with a limited waste of results as it requires fewer consumables than traditional epoxy/polished connector methods. Mechanical fusion splicing has a lower initial investment but a higher cost per splice.

•Fusion Splicing
Fiber fusion splicing is a technique that uses high temperatures generated by the discharge between electrode rods to fuse optical fibers. Fiber splicing is stronger than mechanical fusion splicing, producing less loss and back reflection because the resulting splice point is virtually seamless. However, this method requires an expensive fiber optic fusion splicer, resulting in a higher initial investment but a lower cost per splice.

Q: 2 What is the difference between fiber optic pigtail and patch cord?

A: The main difference between these two cables is that pigtails have one side terminated with a connector and other side ends with bare fibers, while patch cords have two connectors terminated on both ends. Let's see in more detail how these assemblies are used and how are they distinguished.

Q: 3 What is a fiber pigtail used for?

A: Fiber optic pigtails are basically used to splice with the fiber so that they can be connected to the patch panel or equipment. They also present a feasible and reliable solution for easier fiber termination, effectively saving operating time and labour cost.

Q: 4 What is pigtail connector?

A: A pigtail connector is used to join together two or more electrical conductors to a device and an electrical box. The pigtail connector is a closed end, crimp on wire connector used to secure electrical connection points.

Q: 5 What is the difference between fiber optic connector and pigtail?

A: Pigtail has only one end with connector installed, the other end is left open. While both ends of a fiber patch cord has connectors installed.

Q: 6 What are the four 4 types of fiber optic connectors for fiber optic pigtail?

A: The most commonly used connectors today are ST, SC, FC, MT-RJ, & LC connectors while Plastic FOC, Opti-Jack, LX-5, Volition, MU, and E2000 are less used options. Finally, MPO / MTP connectors are fiber connectors that have become widely used in today's data centers.
