Pigtail cord
A pigtail cord is an optical fiber that has an optical connector on one end and a length of exposed
fiber on the other. The end of the pigtail is fusion spliced to a fiber, connecting the fiber cable and
transceiver.
Pigtail cords fall into single-mode (yellow) and multi-mode (orange), and can also be classified into
SC, LC, FC, and so on based on interface type.
Fiber connector
Fiber connectors are indispensable passive components in an optical fiber communication system.
They allow the removable connection between optical channels, which makes the optical system
debugging and maintenance more convenient and the transit dispatching of the system more
flexible.
