Product Overview

Bundle Pigtail is part of the various pigtail range built by Ever Expresslink Limited in Ningbo, China.

It is one of 12 items in this range. A typical application is loading 12-fiber trays in a rack-mounted ODF. What the range is built to give you there: tail lengths chosen for the enclosure so routing stays inside the bend radius.

The problem it addresses is splice trays loaded one fiber at a time when a bundle would do it in a single operation. A practical note that applies across this range: coil the tail inside the tray without dropping below the fiber's bend radius. Specifications for a particular configuration are confirmed on the quotation rather than assumed from the designation.

Key Benefits

Supplied as Bundle Pigtail, so the part you receive matches the designation you ordered against
Bundle construction: Several pigtails collected under one furcation, so a splice tray can be loaded in one operation instead of twelve.
Color-coded buffers that follow standard fiber identification
Tail lengths chosen for the enclosure so routing stays inside the bend radius
Connector end face made and tested under factory conditions
Field work reduced to a fusion splice, which the splicer measures for you

Problems It Solves

Color coding that does not survive the transition from cable to tray
Pigtail tails too short to route properly inside a closure, forcing tight bends
Mismatched polish between the pigtail and the distribution frame
Field-terminated connectors whose loss varies with the weather and the technician

Application Scenarios

Terminating feeder cable inside a dome or horizontal splice closure
Loading 12-fiber trays in a rack-mounted ODF
Splicing subscriber drops inside an FTTH termination box
Building custom terminal boxes on an assembly bench

Who It Is For

FTTH contractors terminating distribution cable into closures and boxes
ODF and patch panel builders loading splice trays at scale
Central office teams splicing onto backbone cable
Maintenance crews carrying repair kits for emergency restoration

Use Guide

Handling Bundle Pigtail

Before You Order

Check buffer color against the tray plan before stripping anything
Strip, clean and cleave to the splicer's stated dimensions
Fusion splice and record the splicer's loss estimate

In Service

Protect the splice with a heat-shrink sleeve and seat it in the tray
Coil the tail inside the tray without dropping below the fiber's bend radius
Cap the connector until the frame side is ready to be patched

FAQ

Questions About Bundle Pigtail

What do you need from us to quote Bundle Pigtail?

The quantity, the destination and anything that has to match on your side: connector and polish at each end, fiber mode and core size, and length where the item is an assembly. If you are matching a part you already buy, send the sample and we will quote against it.

Do you supply bundle pigtails in standard color order?

Yes. Bundle and 12-fiber versions follow the standard fiber identification color sequence, and we can supply a different sequence if your plant uses its own convention.

Can I get APC pigtails for a PON build?

Yes. APC is normally what you want on PON and RF-over-glass distribution because the angled end face pushes reflections out of the core. Specify APC per order and the housings will be green.

Are waterproof pigtails available for outdoor enclosures?

Yes, we supply waterproof pigtail versions intended for direct entry into outdoor closures and pedestals. Confirm the gland and enclosure type on your inquiry.

Why use a pigtail instead of terminating the cable directly?

Because a factory-made end face is more repeatable than one polished in a closure. Splicing a pigtail on moves the difficult step indoors and leaves the field crew a fusion splice whose loss the machine reports.
