Pigtail SC/UPC multimode cable Extralink OM2 50 µm 900 µm 2 m FTTH orange

Pigtail SC/UPC multimode cable Extralink OM2 50 µm 900 µm 2 m FTTH orange is a factory-terminated multimode pigtail designed for short-range fibre connections in FTTH and telecom installations. It features an SC/UPC connector on one end and a bare fibre tail on the other for fusion splicing or mechanical splicing. The cable uses OM2 multimode fibre with a 50 µm core and 900 µm buffered fibre, and comes in an orange jacket with a 2 m overall length. Typical use includes splicing and patching in optical distribution panels, telecom equipment and CCTV fibre runs where a short, pre-connectorised multimode lead is required.

Advantages

The Extralink OM2 multimode pigtail provides a pre-terminated SC/UPC interface that simplifies splicing and hookup in fibre distribution frames and enclosures. Its 900 µm buffered fibre tail eases handling during fusion or mechanical splicing, while the 50 µm core OM2 fibre supports reliable multimode transmission for local and building-level networks. The 2 m cable length and bright orange jacket make routing and identification straightforward in fibre bundles and racks.

Suitable for

• FTTH splice enclosures and distribution panels
• Short-distance multimode links in buildings and campus networks
• CCTV camera fibre connections requiring multimode pigtails
• Fusion splicing and mechanical splicing operations

Key specifications

• Fibre type: Multimode OM2
• Core diameter: 50 µm
• Buffer diameter: 900 µm
• Connector: SC/UPC on one end
• Cable length: 2 m
• Cable jacket colour: Orange
• Cable application: FTTH / short-range multimode patching and splicing

How to use

Prepare the fibre tail according to standard splicing procedures, strip the buffer and clean the bare fibre before fusion or mechanical splicing. Insert the pre-terminated SC/UPC connector into the matching adapter or patch panel after splicing is complete and verify optical continuity and loss with appropriate test instruments. Securely route and fix the 2 m pigtail inside the enclosure to avoid strain on the splice point and to maintain stable connections.

Recommendations

Handle the 900 µm buffered fibre carefully to avoid microbending; perform splicing and cleaning in a dust-free environment and use an optical power meter or visual fault locator to confirm correct operation after installation.
