12-Strand Single-Mode Pigtail

This 12-strand 9/125 single-mode fiber pigtail is built for rack installations that need pre-terminated LC/APC connectors on one end. It suits network engineers splicing into patch panels or distribution frames in telecom and data-centre environments. The yellow OS2 jacket identifies the single-mode rating at a glance. Buyers who need multimode fibre or a different connector polish should look elsewhere.

Installation and common issues

Each pigtail arrives with twelve colour-coded fibres ready for fusion or mechanical splicing to the field cable. The LC/APC ferrules are factory-polished to an insertion loss of 0.3dB and interchangeability of 0.2dB, so clean the end-faces before mating to keep loss low. The 3-metre length gives slack for routing in standard rack enclosures. Technicians without a fusion splicer or who require pre-terminated connectors on both ends will find this pigtail unsuitable.

Critical specification

The fibre is specified as 9/125 OS2 single-mode operating at 1310nm and 1550nm wavelengths with APC polish. This combination determines compatibility with the transceivers and patch cords in your link. If your system uses UPC polish, multimode fibre, or a different wavelength plan, this pigtail will not work. The design supports more than 1000 mating cycles for long-term reliability.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the pigtail is performing correctly after installation?

Measure insertion loss with a light source and power meter; each of the 12 fibres should show ≤0.3 dB at 1310 nm and 1550 nm.

What comes in the package and what must I supply myself?

The box contains the 12-strand 9/125 µm single-mode pigtail with 3 m LC/APC connectors on one end; you must provide fusion-splicing equipment, cleaning tools and the rack enclosure.

Which connector polish and fibre count should I select for my single-mode rack links?

Choose the LC/APC 12-fibre version — it matches OS2 single-mode cabling and gives the 0.2 dB interchangeability spec for rack-to-rack patching.
