DIGITUS SC OM4 50/125 ͔ Simplex Fiber Optic Pigtail DK-25221-02-4 2 m

The DIGITUS SC OM4 50/125 Simplex Fiber Optic Pigtail is a high-performance network component designed to ensure reliable and low-loss fiber optic connections. Measuring 2 meters in length, this multi-mode pigtail features an OM4 fiber type with a 50/125 micron core diameter, making it an ideal choice for high-speed data transmission, telecommunication networks, and data center structured cabling applications. Equipped with an SC connector on one end and an ST connector on the other, it bridges different interface types efficiently within patch panels and distribution boxes.

Advantages

This fiber optic pigtail delivers exceptional link quality and performance for advanced network infrastructures. Constructed with a durable Low Smoke Zero Halogen jacket and a precise Zirconia ceramic ferrule, it minimizes signal loss and withstands demanding installation environments. The loose buffer design and color-coded coating according to IEC 304 standards simplify cable management and identification during complex installations.

Suitable for

• High-speed data transmission in enterprise networks
• Telecommunication networks and data center structured cabling
• Termination of fiber optic cables within patch panels and distribution enclosures
• Multi-mode network environments requiring OM4 performance standards

When it may not be suitable

This product is a simplex multi-mode pigtail and is not suitable for single-mode fiber installations or long-distance outdoor aerial deployments without additional protective conduit. It cannot be used directly as a patch cord between two active network devices since it features a connector on only one end, with the other end intended for splicing.

Key specifications

• Fiber optic type: OM4 multi-mode
• Core diameter: 50/125 micrometers
• Cable length: 2 meters
• Connector 1: SC male
• Connector 2: ST male
• Ferrule material: Zirconia ceramic
• Jacket material: Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH)
• Return loss: Greater than 25 dB
• Secondary coating dimensions: 0.9 mm

How to use

To use the DIGITUS fiber optic pigtail, strip the protective outer coating as needed and prepare the bare fiber end for fusion splicing or mechanical splicing to your incoming backbone or distribution cable. Secure the spliced section inside a splice cassette housed within a patch panel or wall outlet. Finally, plug the pre-terminated SC and ST connectors into their respective adapter ports on network equipment, patch panels, or test instruments.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your existing network equipment and patch panels support SC and ST connector types.
• Confirm that your system requires a multi-mode OM4 50/125 micron fiber specification.
• Check whether your installation environment requires Low Smoke Zero Halogen cable materials for safety compliance.

Ensure that splicing and handling of fiber optic components are performed by qualified personnel using specialized tools to maintain optimal signal integrity and prevent contamination of the ceramic ferrules.
