The SC Waterproof Fiber Optic Pigtail is a rugged and high-performance fiber optic assembly designed to ensure reliable signal transmission in outdoor or harsh environments. Built with a waterproof SC connector on one end and a length of exposed fiber on the other, this pigtail provides a seamless connection between outdoor fiber optic cables and indoor terminal equipment, such as optical receivers, distribution boxes, or splice closures.
As fiber optic networks continue to expand into more challenging environments—including outside plant (OSP), FTTH, FTTx, and industrial applications—the need for waterproof and weather-resistant components becomes increasingly critical. The SC waterproof pigtail is specially designed to resist water, dust, UV exposure, and temperature extremes, making it ideal for mission-critical installations.
Key Features of SC Waterproof Fiber Optic Pigtail
- Waterproof and Rugged Design
The SC connector is encased in a protective, weatherproof housing that offers excellent sealing against water and dust ingress, meeting IP67 or higher protection standards. - Superior Signal Performance
Manufactured with high-grade single-mode optical fiber, this pigtail ensures low insertion loss and excellent return loss for stable and high-speed signal transmission. - Versatile Fiber Options
Available in multiple single-mode fiber types including G652D, G655, G657A1/A2, and G657B3, the SC waterproof pigtail meets the diverse needs of telecom, data center, and outdoor broadband systems. - Customizable Lengths and Jackets
Choose from a wide range of lengths, jacket materials (PVC, LSZH, OFNR, OFNP), and diameters to suit different installation scenarios. - Reliable Connector Options
Supports SC/PC and SC/APC types for precision mating and reduced reflection, with optional customization for other connector types upon request.
