Patch cords and pigtails with one fiber or two fibers are found in almost every fiber system.

Applications

• Pigtail splicing (fusion and mechanical)
• Patch cords (crossconnect patch panel to patch panel and interconnect patch panel to the electronics)
  
  

Cable Designs

Patch cords and pigtails are available with multimode and singlemode fiber in the following cable designs.

• 900µm Buffered Fiber
  (Non-jacketed Cable)
  Used for splicing and routing fiber in the rear of the hardware where handling is limited.
  
• Single-Fiber Cable
  (Jacketed Cable)
  Used for splicing and routing cable on the front or rear of the hardware. The dielectric strength member and the outer jacket give extra protection to withstand additional handling. the cable is available with an OFNR (riser) or OFNP (plenum) listing from UL.
  
• Zipcord Cable
  Designed with two single-fiber cables joined in the middle. Zipcord cable allows tow single-fiber units to be separated in the middle for connectorization and routed to different terminals. This cable is ideal for use as a work-area, equipment or cross-connect patch cord for 2 fiber applications. The cable is available with an OFNR (riser) or OFNP (plenum) listing from UL.
  
• DIB Cable
  Rugged, duplex cable designed for intrabuilding applications. Its round design makes it a favorite for installation between wiring closets. The dielectric strength member makes this Siecor's strongest 2-fiber cable for all intrabuilding applications. This is the preferred cable for use with FDDI and ESCON compatible patch cords. The cable is available with an OFNR (riser) or OFNP (plenum) listing from UL
