Lightwave LW-PT-SCA-SM Fiber Pigtail, SC APC, SM, 2M

The Lightwave LW-PT-SCA-SM Fiber Pigtail provides superior single-mode termination with SC APC polish for low-reflection networks. This 2-meter pigtail excels in splicing for FTTH and data centers. Novatech Technologies supplies this precision component for high-performance fiber optic systems, minimizing signal loss in demanding applications.

Detailed Use Cases and Compatibility

FTTH Subscriber Terminations

Telecom technicians deploy this pigtail in optical network terminals for home connections. It splices to drop cables in GPON setups for gigabit broadband. The SC APC connector reduces return loss to under 60 dB, ensuring clear video streams. Suitable for multi-dwelling units with dense fiber drops.

Central Office Distribution

Providers use this pigtail in ODFs for line-side terminations at central offices. It supports 100G DWDM channels over long hauls with G.657 fibers. The 2-meter length fits rack-mounted splice trays without slack issues. Compatible with EDFAs for amplified links in metro networks.

Data Center Backbone Splicing

Hyperscale data centers integrate this pigtail for trunk cable terminations. It connects to MPO fanouts via SC adapters for 40G uplinks. The APC polish enhances performance in high-power laser systems. Ideal for environments with strict attenuation budgets.

Enterprise Fiber Extensions

Corporations link this pigtail to switches for campus-wide single-mode runs. It pairs with LC-to-SC hybrids for mixed connector panels. The robust design withstands repeated handling in IT closets. Integrate with networking devices for end-to-end single-mode paths.

Technical Specifications

Fiber Composition and Connector

G.652.D single-mode fiber features 9/125 μm core/cladding for standard transmission. SC APC connector employs zirconia ceramic ferrule for sub-micron alignment. 900 μm tight-buffered jacket safeguards against micro-bends. Green boot color signifies APC polish for angled contact.

Optical Characteristics

Insertion loss capped at 0.12 dB for superior throughput. Return loss surpasses 65 dB to eliminate backscatter. Wavelength compatibility spans 1260-1625 nm for CWDM/DWDM. Chromatic dispersion under 18 ps/nm·km at 1550 nm supports 10G+ rates.

Cable Structure and Flexibility

2-meter length with low-smoke zero-halogen (LSZH) sheath for fire-rated buildings. Minimum bend radius of 10 mm loaded, 20 mm unloaded. Cable OD at 0.9 mm enables routing in confined conduits. Tensile strength up to 70 N during installation pulls.

Environmental Durability

Vibration resistance meets Bellcore GR-326-CORE for telecom reliability. Temperature cycling from -45°C to +85°C without degradation. Humidity exposure up to 100% for 14 days. RoHS and REACH compliant for global deployments. For APC connector norms, review IEC 61754-2 standards.

Splicing and Field Features

Factory-polished SC endface speeds fusion splicing to under 1 minute. Pre-cleared buffer aids visual inspection in trays. Strain-relief boot prevents kinking at 5% elongation. Supports quick-connect mechanical splices as backup method.
