Description
LC/UPC SM Pigtail
The OEM LC/UPC Pigtail serves as a critical link for high-speed telecommunications and data center interconnects. This single-mode assembly measures one meter in length and provides a reliable termination point for optical networks. It features a factory-terminated connector on one end and an exposed fiber on the other for splicing. This configuration facilitates rapid fusion splicing to existing backbone cables in various environments. The 900-micron tight buffer protects the 125-micron cladding during handling and installation.
Engineers prioritize this specific interface for its high-density capabilities in modern infrastructure. The LC connector utilizes a 1.25mm ceramic ferrule to maintain precise alignment. This design halves the space required compared to traditional SC connectors in data center environments. The UPC polish minimizes back reflections to ensure stable signal paths. This optimization supports high-bitrate applications like 10G, 40G, and 100G Ethernet without compromising signal integrity or increasing latency.
The internal glass core adheres to G.652.D standards for wide-spectrum transmission. This ensures low water peak performance across the 1310nm and 1550nm wavelengths commonly used in single-mode networks. Signal loss remains minimal over the short length of the lead. The tight buffer material consists of flame-retardant materials suitable for indoor installations. This construction provides the necessary flexibility for routing through tight cable management systems.
Splicing these components into a patch panel reduces installation time significantly. Factory-controlled environments produce more reliable terminations than field-installed connectors. Every unit undergoes rigorous testing for insertion loss and return loss before deployment. This guarantees network integrity from the moment of activation in mission-critical infrastructures. The 1-meter length provides sufficient slack for multiple splicing attempts inside an enclosure.
The assembly fits comfortably within standard splice trays without exceeding the minimum bend radius. The yellow jacket color follows TIA/EIA-598 standards for easy identification of single-mode media among multi-mode alternatives. These optical leads function reliably in extreme temperatures ranging from -40 to +75 degrees Celsius. This thermal stability makes them suitable for both temperature-controlled data centers and unconditioned outdoor enclosures.
Key Features
LC/UPC Connector
The push-pull latching mechanism ensures secure and stable connections in high-density patch panels.Optical Performance
- Insertion loss remains below 0.3dB for minimal signal attenuation.
- Return loss exceeds 50dB to prevent back-reflections in high-speed links.
Standard Compliance
The G.652.D single-mode glass core meets international standards for low water peak performance.Buffer Construction
- The 900µm tight buffer allows for easy stripping during the fusion splicing process.
- Color-coded yellow jacket permits rapid identification of single-mode media.

Kamau Njoroge (verified owner) –
The build quality on these LC pigtails is actually quite good. We used them for a new ODF installation in Upper Hill and the splicing went very smoothly without any high attenuation issues. The connectors click in securely and don’t feel loose like some of the generic ones you find in the CBD. Good value for money.
Faith Mutua (verified owner) –
Standard 1m pigtails that do the job well. They are easy to strip and the fiber core is centered properly. Using them for our single mode links and haven’t had any failures yet.
Brian Omondi (verified owner) –
Ordered these for an urgent office shift and they arrived very fast. Good quality.
David Kiprono (verified owner) –
The LC/UPC polish is clean and the insertion loss is within acceptable limits for our network. The 1 meter length is just right for our patch panels—not too much excess cable to manage but enough slack for the splice tray. Will definitely buy again for our next project.
Evans Wekesa (verified owner) –
Decent product for the price. Only small issue is the outer jacket is a bit thin compared to some premium brands, so you have to be careful when routing them in tight spaces. But for splicing and signal strength, they work perfectly fine.
Mercy Chebet (verified owner) –
Solid choice for FTTH terminations. We have bought several batches of these for our site installations and they are consistent. Much better than trying to make your own ends when you have a lot of fibers to terminate. Highly recommended for any fundi doing fiber work.
