Pigtail IPCOM FC / UPC 1,5M

Pigtail with FC connector

Pigtail - a piece of optical fiber (in a buffer coating d = 0.9 mm) or a distribution cable, armored with an optical connector on one side. Pigtail mounting cable FC is an indispensable element of fiber-optic networks. In literal translation it means "pig's tail" - it got its name because of its external similarity.

The main purpose of the patch cord is to end the fiber mechanically or by welding. It is used to build fiber-optic information transmission systems. Connects to optical sockets of crossover devices using a ferrule.

Pigtail FC UPC - use cases

FC UPC pigtails are components used in optical communication systems. They have the following characteristics and applications:

• Designed for optical fiber splicing, ensuring low connection losses.
• Used in optical distribution boxes and other elements of passive optical infrastructure.
• Serve to connect equipment in fiber-optic networks (FTTH, LAN, WAN).
• Often applied in high-speed backbones and local networks.

Technical properties, qualities and characteristics

The Pigtail FC UPC is a kind of optical cords. It features a metal connector body, a screw structure, a high-precision ceramic tip.

The buffer-coated optical fiber is terminated with an FC-type ferrule, polishing type - UPC. The length is 1.5 meters, the high-quality work is ensured by the buffer shell of 0.9 mm.

Among the advantages of this type of connectors, it is worth noting:

• minimal signal loss;
• slight reflection;
• excellent connection quality;
• good interchangeability.

The product has a connector on one side only. For the installation of another part, several methods are provided - mechanical connection, welding.

Optical cords produced and supplied by IP COM LLC comply with the requirements of DSTU IEC 60794-1-2002, DSTU IEC 60794-2-2002, DSTU IEC 60794-3-2002, GOST 18690-82, GSTU 45.019-2001. The quality of the products is confirmed by the relevant documents and certificates.
