Unlike standard pigtails, the DC-specific design emphasizes consistent optical performance and mechanical stability, making it suitable for permanent connections between active and passive network components. Constructed with G.652D single-mode fiber, it operates efficiently across the 1310nm and 1550nm wavelength bands commonly used in long-haul and metro communication systems. The angled physical contact (APC) polishing ensures exceptional back reflection control, a critical parameter in high-sensitivity applications like optical amplifiers and test equipment interfaces .
The 2-meter length provides versatile reach for indoor installations, while the robust construction ensures compatibility with industry-standard fiber management systems. Each component undergoes rigorous testing to meet Telcordia specifications, guaranteeing reliable operation in mission-critical network environments .
Ultra-Low Insertion Loss ≤0.25dB at 1310nm and 1550nm, ensuring minimal signal attenuation in critical links .
Superior Return Loss ≥65dB due to precision APC polishing, exceeding standard requirements for high-sensitivity systems .
DC-Optimized Design with tight tolerance on fiber geometry, reducing modal noise in direct-connect applications.
2-Meter Length with 2mm PVC jacket for enhanced durability and easy routing in cable trays and enclosures.
High-Precision SC APC Connectors with zirconia ceramic ferrules, ensuring consistent alignment and repeatable performance .
Easy-Strip Buffer Coating (900μm) facilitating quick and clean termination during installation .
Wide Operating Temperature Range: -40°C to +85°C, suitable for both indoor and sheltered outdoor installations .
Vibration Resistance: Tested to withstand 10-2000Hz vibrations per Telcordia GR-63 standards.
Humidity Insensitivity: Maintains performance at 95% relative humidity (non-condensing) at 65°C.
Telcordia GR-326 Qualified for optical connector performance and reliability .
IEC 61754-4 Compliant SC connector interface, ensuring interoperability with standard equipment.
100% Factory Tested for insertion loss and return loss before shipment.
Critical for connecting EDFA (Erbium-Doped Fiber Amplifiers) and RAMAN amplifiers in long-haul networks. The superior return loss prevents amplifier oscillation caused by reflected signals, ensuring stable operation .
Ideal for laboratory setups and field testing equipment, where precise optical measurements require minimal signal distortion. The DC-optimized design provides consistent performance for calibration and verification procedures.
Used in optical cross-connect systems and add-drop multiplexers, providing reliable connections between transmission equipment and optical backplanes. The 2-meter length offers flexible routing between rack-mounted components.
Perfect for studio-to-transmitter links (STL) and satellite earth station interfaces, where signal integrity is paramount for analog and digital video transmission. The APC polishing minimizes signal degradation in high-frequency modulation systems.
Suitable for ruggedized communication systems requiring reliable performance in extreme environments. The wide temperature range and mechanical robustness meet military specifications for harsh conditions.
"DC" stands for Direct Connect, indicating this pigtail is optimized for direct connections between active devices (like transceivers and amplifiers) and passive components. It features tighter manufacturing tolerances on fiber concentricity and connector alignment to ensure consistent performance in critical links.
While sharing basic SC APC characteristics, the DC-optimized version offers tighter performance tolerances (lower insertion loss, higher return loss), enhanced mechanical stability, and stricter quality control. These improvements make it suitable for applications where signal integrity is mission-critical.
While the pigtail itself can operate in outdoor temperature ranges, it features a non-armored PVC jacket designed for indoor use. For outdoor applications, it should be installed within protected enclosures or conduit systems to prevent moisture ingress and physical damage.
Use lint-free wipes with isopropyl alcohol (99% purity) to clean ferrules. For best results, use a dedicated fiber optic cleaning tool designed for APC connectors to avoid damaging the angled ferrule surface. Always inspect connectors with a fiber scope before mating.
Yes, it is fully compatible with IEC 61754-4 compliant SC APC adapters, typically identified by their green color. Ensure adapters are clean and undamaged before use. Never use APC adapters with UPC connectors or vice versa .
