Fiber optic pigtail Alantec LC/APC 9/125 µm singlemode 1-jumper LSOH 2 m

Alantec fiber optic pigtail LC/APC 9/125 µm singlemode, 1-jumper, 2 m with LSOH jacket is designed for professional fiber splicing and connection tasks in singlemode networks. The pigtail features an LC connector with APC (angled physical contact) polish for low back reflection and stable signal performance. The 9/125 µm core/cladding ratio indicates ITU-T G.652-compatible singlemode fiber suitable for long-distance and high-speed telecom or datacom links. The LSOH outer jacket reduces smoke and eliminates halogens for safer indoor installations.

Advantages

This singlemode pigtail provides low insertion loss and improved return loss thanks to the LC/APC connector polish, making it suitable for systems where optical performance is critical. The 2 m jumper length allows flexibility near splice trays and fiber distribution panels while keeping a neat installation. The LSOH jacket ensures compliance with indoor safety requirements and reduces corrosive gas emission in case of fire. The single-jumper configuration simplifies splicing and reduces the number of connection points.

Suitable for

• Splicing to bulk singlemode fiber in splice trays and closures
• Connecting fiber distribution panels and patch panels using LC/APC ports
• Telecom and datacom links requiring low back reflection connectors
• Indoor installations where low-smoke, halogen-free cabling is required

Key specifications

• Fiber type: singlemode (9/125 µm core/cladding)
• Connector: LC with APC polish (angled physical contact)
• Configuration: single-jumper (pigtail)
• Jacket material: LSOH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)
• Length: 2 m

How to use

Prepare the fiber bundle and the splice tray according to standard fiber handling procedures. Strip and cleave the fiber to the required length and perform fusion splicing between the pigtail fiber and the in-field fiber. Secure the splice within the splice tray and route the LC connector to the appropriate patch panel port. Verify optical continuity and measure insertion loss and return loss after installation to confirm correct performance.

Usage recommendations

Handle the LC/APC connector carefully to avoid contamination of the connector endface; always use a protective dust cap when the connector is not engaged and follow cleaning procedures before mating. Avoid tight bends near the connector and maintain the minimum bend radius for singlemode fiber to preserve optical performance.
