Glasvezelkabel ACT RL9996 2 m LC Pigtail geel

The ACT RL9996 2 m LC Pigtail Yellow is an OS2 single-mode fibre optic cable designed for short interconnection tasks within data centers, telecom racks and fibre management panels. With a 9 µm core diameter and LC connector in a pigtail format, this cable provides low attenuation and stable single-mode signal transmission over connections where a pre-terminated tail is required. The yellow jacket identifies it as single-mode fibre and the two-metre length is suitable for routing between closely spaced equipment or patch panels.

Advantages

This pigtail cable offers low insertion loss and consistent single-mode performance due to the 9 µm core. The LC connector provides a compact, widely supported interface for modern transceivers and patch panels. The pigtail design simplifies termination and splicing into fibre management hardware while the durable outer jacket protects the fibre against mechanical stress during installation and routine handling.

Suitable for

• Splicing into fibre distribution panels and splice trays
• Connecting transceivers to patch panels in data centres
• Short-range fibre interconnects in telecom cabinets
• Organising single-mode fibre runs inside racks and enclosures

Key specifications

• Fibre type: OS2 single-mode
• Core diameter: 9 µm
• Connector type: LC
• Design: pigtail (one-ended pre-terminated)
• Length: 2 m
• Jacket colour: yellow (single-mode identification)

How to use

Prepare the splice tray or termination area and secure the pigtail’s loose end for splicing or connector mounting according to your fibre management practice. If splicing, strip and cleave the fibre tail following standard single-mode splicing procedures and perform a fusion splice to the installed backbone or drop fibre. If using on a pre-terminated panel, route the cable carefully to avoid tight bends and insert the LC connector into the matching port until it clicks. Verify continuity and insertion loss with appropriate test equipment after installation.

Recommendations

Avoid bending the cable below the manufacturer's recommended minimum bend radius, keep connectors clean using fibre-safe cleaning tools, and perform optical loss testing after splicing or connector mating to confirm compliance with system requirements.
