　　12 Cores Fiber Pigtail: High-Density, Low-Loss Solution for Optical Network Deployments

　　With the rapid expansion of 5G, data centers, and broadband networks, the demand for high-density, reliable optical connectivity is growing exponentially. Our 12 Cores Fiber Pigtail is engineered to meet the rigorous standards of modern optical networks, featuring a compact design, low insertion loss, and excellent environmental adaptability. As a critical component for fiber optic splicing and termination, it enables efficient signal transmission in high-density network environments, making it an ideal choice for data centers, telecom operators, and enterprise optical infrastructure.

　　1. Product Overview & Core Technical Parameters

　　Our 12 Cores Fiber Pigtail consists of 12 individual optical fibers bundled in a single jacket, with pre-terminated connectors at one end for direct connection to optical devices (e.g., ODF, switches, transceivers) and bare fiber at the other end for splicing with trunk cables. It supports various fiber types and connector models to meet diverse network requirements. Below are the detailed technical parameters:

　　Fiber Type: Single-mode (SMF-28e, G.652D, G.657A1/A2) or Multimode (OM1, OM2, OM3, OM4, OM5), compliant with ITU-T standards

　　Core Count: 12 cores, color-coded fibers (according to IEC 60309 standard) for easy identification and management

　　Connector Type: SC, LC, FC, ST, E2000, MPO/MTP (optional); PC, UPC, or APC polishing grade for low reflection

　　Transmission Performance: Insertion Loss (IL) ≤ 0.3dB (UPC), ≤ 0.5dB (APC); Return Loss (RL) ≥ 50dB (UPC), ≥ 60dB (APC); Operating Wavelength: 850nm (multimode), 1310nm/1550nm (single-mode)

　　Fiber Jacket: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) or PVC, diameter: 2.0mm/3.0mm; Flame retardant grade: UL94 V-0

　　Cable Structure: 12 fibers + aramid yarn reinforcement + outer jacket; tight-buffered design for enhanced mechanical protection

　　Operating Temperature: -40℃ ~ 85℃, adaptable to harsh indoor and outdoor (with protective casing) environments

　　Cable Length: 1m, 2m, 3m, 5m, 10m (standard); customized lengths available (0.5m ~ 100m)

　　Compliance Standards: IEC 61754, Telcordia GR-326, RoHS, REACH

　　2. Key Advantages of 12 Cores Fiber Pigtail

　　2.1 High-Density Design for Space-Saving Deployment

　　The 12-core integrated design significantly reduces the space occupied by optical cabling compared to single-core or 4-core pigtails. It is particularly suitable for high-density network environments such as data center ODF (Optical Distribution Frame) cabinets and telecom central offices, where space optimization is critical. The color-coded fibers (blue, orange, green, brown, slate, white, red, black, yellow, violet, rose, aqua) enable quick identification and easy maintenance, improving network deployment and management efficiency.

　　2.2 Low Loss & High Signal Integrity

　　We use high-purity optical fibers (core/cladding diameter: 9/125μm for single-mode, 50/125μm or 62.5/125μm for multimode) and precision-polished connectors to ensure ultra-low insertion loss and high return loss. This minimizes signal attenuation and reflection, guaranteeing stable and reliable long-distance transmission. Each 12 cores fiber pigtail undergoes 100% optical performance testing before delivery, ensuring consistent quality across all cores.

　　2.3 Robust Mechanical Protection

　　The pigtail features a tight-buffered structure with aramid yarn reinforcement, which provides excellent tensile strength and crush resistance. The outer LSZH/PVC jacket is wear-resistant, aging-resistant, and flame-retardant, protecting the internal fibers from physical damage and environmental erosion. This robust construction ensures a long service life even in harsh operating environments.

　　2.4 Versatile Compatibility & Flexible Customization

　　Our 12 cores fiber pigtail supports both single-mode and multimode fibers, and is compatible with various connector types (SC, LC, FC, etc.) and polishing grades (PC, UPC, APC). This versatility allows it to be seamlessly integrated into different optical network architectures, including PON (Passive Optical Network), LAN (Local Area Network), and WAN (Wide Area Network). We also offer flexible customization options for length, jacket material, connector type, and branding, meeting the specific needs of global customers.

　　2.5 Easy Installation & Maintenance

　　The pre-terminated connectors eliminate the need for on-site fiber termination, reducing installation time and labor costs. The flexible jacket material allows easy routing in tight spaces such as cabinet ducts and wall cavities. Additionally, the stable performance and easy identification of 12-core pigtails reduce the frequency of network failures and simplify maintenance work, lowering long-term network operation costs.

　　3. Typical Application Scenarios

　　Our 12 Cores Fiber Pigtail is widely used in various optical network deployment scenarios that require high density, reliability, and efficiency. Typical applications include:

　　Data Centers: Used in ODF cabinets, server racks, and storage area networks (SAN), connecting optical transceivers, switches, and other devices to trunk cables for high-speed data transmission.

　　Telecom Networks: Applied in telecom central offices, base stations, and FTTx (Fiber to the x) deployments (FTTH, FTTP, FTTB), enabling signal distribution and transmission in broadband and 5G networks.

　　Enterprise Networks: Suitable for large enterprise campuses, industrial parks, and financial institutions, building high-speed and secure optical backbone networks to support cloud computing, video conferencing, and big data applications.

　　Surveillance Systems: Used in long-distance video surveillance networks (e.g., highway monitoring, border security), transmitting high-definition video signals with low latency and no interference.

　　Broadcasting & Media: Applied in TV stations, live broadcasting centers, and media cloud platforms, supporting high-bandwidth transmission of HD/4K video signals and program production data.
