FC/APC PIGTAIL S(G657A)BLUE 0.9MM 1.5MTR LSZH CT-04006

FC/APC Pigtail (likely manufactured by Core Tech, model CT-04006) is a high-performance, single-mode fiber optic component designed for fusion splicing applications, featuring bend-insensitive fiber and a low-smoke zero-halogen jacket. MeFiberOptic.Com MeFiberOptic.Com +1 Key Specifications and Features Connector Type: Features an FC (Ferrule Connector) with an APC (Angled Physical Contact) polish. The metal-bodied FC connector provides high stability and resistance to vibration via its threaded coupling, while the 8-degree angled APC end-face minimizes back reflection (return loss). Fiber Type: Uses ITU-T G.657.A1 single-mode (SM) fiber, which is a bend-insensitive type, making it suitable for routing in tight spaces (minimum bend radius of approximately 10mm) without significant signal loss. It is fully compatible and intermateable with standard G.652.D fiber. Cable Diameter: The pigtail has a 0.9mm outer diameter for the tight-buffered fiber, which is a common size for use within fiber splice trays, patch panels, and distribution boxes. Length: A standard length of 1.5 meters is provided, offering enough slack for splicing and routing within an enclosure. Jacket Material: The cable jacket is made from LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) material, which is safer for indoor use in enclosed public spaces because it emits minimal smoke and no toxic halogen gases when exposed to fire, in compliance with safety standards like IEC 60332-1. Color-Coding: The pigtail is Blue, which typically denotes single-mode fiber, and the APC connector itself will usually have a green boot or housing for visual identification of the polish type. shopfiber.co.za shopfiber.co.za +6 Optical Performance The APC polish provides superior return loss performance compared to UPC connectors, which is critical for applications sensitive to reflected light. Insertion Loss: Typically ≤ 0.9 dB. Return Loss: High, generally ≥ 62.8 dB
