Professional Q&A
Q1: What does the “OM3” designation mean?
A: OM3 stands for Optical Multimode 3, a laser-optimized multimode fiber type designed for high-speed data transfer (e.g., 10 Gbps and above). It has a core size of 50/125 µm and aqua jacket color for easy identification.
Q2: Why choose FC/UPC connectors for a pigtail?
A: FC/UPC connectors offer excellent mechanical durability and stable optical performance with a threaded coupling design. The Ultra-Physical Contact (UPC) polish reduces back-reflection and enhances return loss in multimode systems.
Q3: What environments are these pigtails suitable for?
A: These pigtails are ideal for indoor environments in telecom, data centers, office buildings, and network distribution racks. The LSZH jacket ensures safety and compliance with low-smoke, fire-safe installations.
Q4: How does insertion loss impact performance?
A: Lower insertion loss means less signal power is lost at the connection point, yielding more efficient data transmission — critical in high-speed optical networks. Typical values for these connectors are ≤ 0.3 dB.
