Product Name: Fiber Optic Pigtails
Fiber optic pigtails are designed to support fusion and mechanical splicing for fiber cabling systems. They provide a fast way to make communication devices in the field.
The OS2 bend-insensitive fiber optic pigtails have less attenuation when bent or twisted than traditional fiber optic pigtails, making installation and maintenance more efficient.
Fiber Types:
Pigtails can be divided into single-mode (colored yellow) and multimode (colored orange) fiber. Multimode pigtails use 62.5/125 micron or 50/125 micron bulk multimode fiber cables and terminated them with multimode fiber optic connectors at one end. 10G multimode fiber cables (OM3 or OM4) are also available in optic pigtails. The jacket color of 10G OM3 and OM4 pigtail is usually aqua. Single-mode pigtail cables use 9/125 micron single-mode fiber cable and terminated with single-mode fiber connectors at one end.

Fiber optic pigtails are used to terminated fiber optic cables via fusion splicing or mechanical splicing as shown in the picture below.
The end of the pigtail is stripped and fusion spliced to a single fiber or a multi-fiber trunk. Splicing of pigtails to each fiber in the trunk "breaks out" the multi-fiber cable into its component fibers for connection to the end equipment.
High quality fiber pigtails combined with correct fusion splicing practices offer the best performance for fiber optic cable termination.
99% of single mode applications use pigtails, but pigtails are also used in many multimode applications.
LC Connectors
These connectors are typically used in high-density applications due to their small size and their pull-proof design.
SC Connectors
SC connectors are non-optical disconnect connectors with a 2.5mm pre-radius-ed zirconia ferrule. They are ideal for quick patching of cables into rack or wall mounts due to their push-pull design.
FC Connectors
FC connectors feature a durable threaded coupling and are best suited for use within telecommunications applications and make use of non-optical disconnect.
ST Connectors
ST connectors make use of a semi-unique bayonet connection with a 2.5mm ferrule. They are great fiber optic connectors for field installation because of their reliability and durability.
