LC/APC PIGTAIL SM (G657A) BLUE 0.9MM 1.5MTR LSZH CT-04013

LC/APC Pigtail SM (G657A) Blue 0.9mm 1.5Mtr LSZH CT-04013 is a high-performance single-mode fiber optic assembly used for permanent splicing in high-density network environments. Optical & Connector Specifications Connector Type: Features a small-form-factor LC (Lucent Connector) with an APC (Angled Physical Contact) polish. The APC ferrule is polished at an 8-degree angle, which minimizes back reflection (return loss typically 65dB), making it essential for high-bandwidth applications like GPON and video transmission. Fiber Type: Uses G657A Single-Mode (SM) fiber. This is a bend-insensitive fiber that allows for a much smaller bending radius (down to 10mm for A1) without significant signal loss. It is fully compatible with standard G652D fiber. Wavelength Optimization: According to Briticom, G657A1 fiber is optimized for the O-E-S-C-L bands (1260nm to 1625nm). Physical Construction Cable Diameter: 0.9mm tight-buffered fiber. This thin diameter is specifically designed to be managed easily within compact splice trays or high-density patch panels. Length: 1.5 Meters, a standard length that provides enough slack for splicing and re-splicing if necessary during installation or maintenance. Jacket Material: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen). This material is safer for indoor use because it emits minimal smoke and no toxic acid gases if exposed to fire. Color: Blue. While the APC connector itself is typically green to signify the angled polish, the blue jacket on the 0.9mm buffer often indicates the first fiber in a multi-fiber color-coding sequence (TIA-598). Applications High-Density Patching: The LC connector is approximately 50% smaller than the SC connector, allowing for double the port density on distribution frames. FTTH and Data Centers: Ideal for fiber-to-the-home and central office environments where cables must navigate tight bends in conduits and enclosures. Part Number Reference: CT-04013 is the specific manufacturer SKU for this exact technical configuration.
