What is fiber pigtail and what is the function of fiber optic pigtail?
There are 5 types of fiber pigtail in the fiber optic transmission system ,SC/PC、FC/PC、LC/PC、E2000/APC、ST/PC. The pigtail is terminated in one side and empty in other side. The empty side will be fused to other cable count by fusion splicer. It is usually used in fiber optic terminal box to connect the cable to fiber media converter.
The fiber pigtail has singlemode and multimode. Multimode is usually orange with wavelength 850nm and transmision distance of 500M, mostly used in short distance interconnection. The Singlemode fiber pigtail is yellow in color with wavelengths of 1310nm and 1550nm and transmission distance above 2KM. The fiber optic fusion splicing can connect the fiber with fiber and fiber pigtail. It fuses the bare fiber and the pigtail as a whole. The pigtail has a terminated fiber connector. The fiber connector can be connected to the fiber media converter. Then the fiber and the UTP cable are conneccted. The tools used in the fiber optic fusion splicing including: fiber optic termination box, fiber optic media converter, fiber optic pigtail, fiber optic adapter, fiber optic stripper, fiber optic cleaver etc.
