Description of Waterproof Pigtail
The waterproof pigtail/patch cord is using high quality connector parts, with high quality waterproof cables and corrosion-resistant high quality waterproof unit. The waterproof pigtail/patchcord is used in outdoor harsh environment and mainly used in outdoor connection of the optical receivers and the backbone cables.
Waterproof pigtail/patch cord with fiber cores 2 fibers, 4 fibers, 6 fibers, 8 fibers and 12 fibers are used more in the field. The waterproof pigtail/patch cord has strong adaptability to environment. It has optical connector on one end and durable waterproof connector. Easy to install, reliable, able to withstand the harsh environment of the wild Long life, jacket toughness, tensile, good grounding. According to customer requirements, 3S Telecom can customize assembly FC, SC, ST, LC, MU, SMA and other connectors.
