1M, 1.5m ST/UPC Simplex Fiber Optic Pigtail LSZH Jacket, 0.9mm
A fiber optic pigtail is a short, single-fiber cable with a factory-installed connector on one end and a bare, exposed fiber on the other. The name "pigtail" comes from this configuration—it looks like a short tail. The primary purpose of a pigtail is to terminate a fiber optic cable, either by splicing or connecting, in a controlled environment to provide a reliable, low-loss connection point.

Structure:
1.1 Connectorized End: This end has a standard connector (like SC, LC, FC, ST, or MTP/MPO for multi-fiber) that is polished and precision-made in a factory. This ensures optimal performance.
1.2 Bare Fiber End: This is the "working" end. The fiber's buffer coating is stripped away, leaving the bare glass cladding and core exposed. This end is designed for splicing.
1.3 Cable Jacket: A short, ruggedized jacket (often 900µm or 2mm/3mm) protects the fiber. It is usually color-coded (orange for multimode, yellow for single-mode).
