**Pigtail LC/UPC 06 colors OM4 0.9mm OFNR 3M, tight buffer** from **Red Cable Technology (RCT)** is a 6-fiber color-coded pigtail set for terminating laser-optimized multimode fiber via fusion or mechanical splicing. Each pigtail is **3 meters** of **OM4 50/125 fiber** in a **0.9mm OFNR tight-buffered** jacket, finished with an **LC/UPC connector** — made to land in ODFs, fiber terminal boxes, and distribution boxes.
**Features & Specs:**
- 6 pigtails in 6 colors for fast, error-free fiber identification
- LC/UPC connectors — the “little connector”: a small form factor (SFF) connector with a 1.25mm ferrule, roughly half the size of an SC connector
- OM4 50/125µm laser-optimized multimode fiber (LOMMF), designed for use with 850 nm VCSELs
- 0.9mm tight-buffered construction with OFNR jacket; 3M length per pigtail
- OM4’s suggested jacket color is aqua; a further improvement to OM3 with the same 50µm core, supporting 10 GigE up to 550 meters and 100 GigE up to 150 meters
- UPC connectors are blue (APC connectors are green); UPC is polished with no angle — not exactly flat, with a slight curvature for better core alignment
- Two-layer core coating — plastic first, waterproof acrylate second — so the core is never at risk of exposure, unlike loose-buffered cable which can escape its confines
- Dielectric FRP strength members surround the fibers, under a rugged polyurethane outer jacket for superior environmental and mechanical protection
- Tight-buffered fiber counts range from 1 to 144 fibers; 2, 6, 12, and 24 are most common, with 48, 96, and 144 available for specific applications
## Terminating fiber with pigtails
Fiber optic pigtails are utilized to terminate fiber optic cables via fusion or mechanical splicing, and high-quality pigtail cables paired with correct fusion splicing practices offer the best performance possible for fiber optic cable terminations. You’ll find them in fiber optic management equipment like ODFs, fiber terminal boxes, and distribution boxes.
