Pigtail LC/PC single-mode Extralink 1.5 m, 900 µm G.657.A1 FTTH, yellow, Easy-strip

Single-mode Extralink LC/PC pigtail, 1.5 m long with 900 µm loose tube and G.657.A1 bend-insensitive fiber, designed for FTTH installations and splicing. The pigtail features an LC/PC connector terminated on a G.657.A1 fiber that supports reduced bending radius without significant increase in attenuation. The yellow Easy-strip jacket simplifies jacket removal for faster and cleaner termination, making the cable suitable for connecting optical equipment, patch panels and fusion splice trays in residential and tertiary network deployments.

Advantages

This pigtail provides single-mode performance with a bend-insensitive G.657.A1 fiber that maintains low loss in tight routing and confined spaces. The LC/PC connector offers a compact footprint suitable for high-density panels and sockets. The Easy-strip 900 µm loose tube in yellow allows quick jacket preparation and reliable splicing or termination, reducing installation time and the risk of fiber damage during stripping. The 1.5 m length is convenient for typical patching between splice trays and patch panels or customer terminations.

Suitable for

• FTTH and FTTx drop terminations
• Fusion splicing to fiber distribution panels and splice trays
• Connecting optical network terminals (ONTs) and patch panels
• High-density cabinets and small distribution boxes with tight bend routing

Key specifications

• Fiber type: single-mode G.657.A1 (bend-insensitive)
• Connector: LC/PC
• Cable construction: 900 µm loose tube (Easy-strip)
• Length: 1.5 m
• Colour: yellow
• Application: FTTH/FTTx drop and patching

How to use

Prepare the fiber by stripping the Easy-strip 900 µm jacket to the required length, cleave the fiber end and perform fusion splicing or connector termination according to standard optical fiber procedures. Route the pigtail from the splice tray or distribution point to the patch panel or ONT, securing it to avoid excessive bending and mechanical stress. After splicing or terminating, test insertion loss and reflectance to confirm proper optical performance.

Recommendations

Store and handle the pigtail with minimal bending to preserve the fiber integrity; use appropriate splice trays and strain relief when routing. Use compatible LC adapters and follow fiber safety procedures during stripping, cleaving and splicing.
