Fiber optic pigtail SC/UPC, singlemode 9/125 µm G.652D, 0.9 mm jacket, 1 m — Molex PN

Singlemode fiber optic pigtail with an SC/UPC connector, built on 9/125 µm G.652D fiber and a 0.9 mm tight-buffered jacket. This 1 m assembly is designed for neat routing and reliable splicing inside splice trays, patch panels and optical modules where a standard singlemode SC/UPC interface is required. The cable end is prepared for fusion or mechanical splicing and the SC/UPC connector provides a UPC polished endface for low back reflection in singlemode networks.

Advantages

The fiber pigtail offers consistent singlemode performance according to G.652D fiber characteristics, compact 0.9 mm tight-buffer construction for easy handling and protection during termination, and a factory-assembled SC/UPC connector for predictable connector geometry and low insertion loss. The 1 m length simplifies internal cable management in racks and enclosures while allowing sufficient slack for splicing and routing.

Suitable for

• Splice trays and fiber optic splice closures
• Patching panels and distribution frames in singlemode networks
• Optical modules and OEM equipment requiring SC/UPC terminations
• Field or workshop fusion and mechanical splicing operations

Key specifications

• Fiber type: singlemode, G.652D
• Core/cladding: 9/125 µm
• Connector type: SC/UPC
• Jacket: 0.9 mm tight-buffer
• Length: 1 m
• Polish: UPC (ultra-physical contact)

How to use

Prepare the fiber pigtail by stripping the 0.9 mm tight-buffer to expose the bare fiber according to your splicing procedure, then cleave and perform fusion or mechanical splicing to the incoming fiber. Route the pigtail into the splice tray or panel, secure the splice and store excess length following enclosure manufacturer's guidelines. Connect the SC/UPC ferrule to adapters or transceivers as required, ensuring proper alignment and a clean mating surface to maintain low insertion loss and low return loss.

Usage recommendations

Handle the 0.9 mm tight-buffered fiber carefully to avoid microbends; use appropriate stripping, cleaving and cleaning tools. Verify connector endface cleanliness before mating and follow standard fiber handling and safety practices to protect personnel and preserve optical performance.
