Three Forms 〞 Pick by Your Box
1 ﹞ Single Pigtail
One connector, one bare end. Yellow 0.9 mm. For spares, single splices and small/ODF adds.
2 ﹞ Color-Coded Bundle (4 / 8 / 12 / 24 ct)
Loose bundle, TIA-598 colors, each fiber pre-connectorized 〞 4 / 8 / 12 / 24 ct. The everyday workhorse for splice trays and wall boxes.
3 ﹞ Breakout Bundle (12 / 24 ct)
Whole bundle under a round jacket, fan-out to connectors. More robust for exits, rugged boxes and 24-fiber trays. Dot marks identify fibers 13每24.
Count & Form Options
Single 〞 SC/APC, LC/UPC, 1.5 / 2 / 3 m. Spares and single-fiber work.
Color bundle (loose, no jacket) 〞 4 / 8 / 12 / 24 fibers, TIA-598 colors. best seller Splice-tray default; 4/8 covers small wall boxes, 12 covers ODF / MDU. 24 ct = colors 1每12, then the same 12 colors with black / white dot marks 〞 an economical in-tray option where no breakout exit is needed.
Breakout bundle (with jacket) 〞 12 / 24 fibers. Robust exit to panels / out of cabinet. 24 ct = two tubes of 12, jacket dot marks split the 13th每24th fiber. Choose this over the loose 24 ct when the bundle leaves the tray or needs rugged handling.
Build Your Pigtail 〞 Selection Steps
Step 1 ﹞ Form & Count
▪ Match the splice tray / box port count: small wall box ↙ 4 or 8 ct bundle; ODF / MDU ↙ 12 ct. For 24-fiber trays, choose the loose 24 ct bundle (color + dot marks) when routing stays in-tray, or the 24 ct breakout with jacket when the bundle exits to a panel / out of the cabinet.
▸ Don't buy 12-fiber for a 4-fiber job 〞 loose bundles waste nothing, but spare fibers mean extra splice work.
Step 2 ﹞ Fiber Type
▪ G.652.D in stock 〞 standard single-mode, most economical.
▪ G.657.A1 in stock 〞 bend-improved, fully G.652-compatible; the FTTH default where trays coil tightly.
▪ G.657.A2 / G.657.B3 on request 〞 tighter bends (~7.5 / ~5 mm) for crowded trays and FTTR.
Step 3 ﹞ Buffer / Jacket
▪ 0.9 mm tight buffer standard 〞 the normal pigtail format inside splice trays (always tight buffer, not loose tube).
▪ 1.6 mm on request 〞 a thicker tight buffer for added bend / pull strength at the fan-out; made to order, not stocked.
▪ Jacket material 〞 PVC or LSZH 〞 is chosen to match your project specification and local fire rule.
Step 4 ﹞ Color Coding
▪ Single pigtails: yellow (single-mode standard).
▪ Bundles: standard 12-color (TIA-598); 4/8 ct use the first N colors.
▪ 24-fiber breakout: standard 12 colors plus black / white dot marks on the jacket to tell fibers 13每24 apart.
Step 5 ﹞ Connector / Polish
▪ SC/APC (green) 〞 FTTH default for splitter / wall boxes. LC/UPC for ODF / equipment. ST/FC for legacy; E2K on request.
▪ Keep the polish consistent with the panel / adapter; never mix APC with UPC on one link.
Step 6 ﹞ Length & Insertion-Loss Grade
▪ Common 1.5 / 2 / 3 m; any length custom.
▪ Standard ≒0.3 dB max in stock; Low-loss ≒0.2 dB max on request (only for tight link budgets / long cascade).
Step 7 ﹞ Label & Packaging private label on request
▪ Standard labels and packaging are supplied within the regular lead time.
▪ Custom labels and packaging 〞 logo, serial, QR code, custom individual bags 〞 are handled as a custom service, MOQ and lead time agreed on request.

FAQ
Q1. Single, color bundle or breakout 〞 which do I need?
Single for spares and one-off splices. Color bundle (loose) for routine splice-tray work 〞 4/8 for small boxes, 12 for ODF/MDU, and a 24 ct dot-marked loose bundle for economical in-tray 24-fiber termination. Choose the breakout with jacket when the bundle must exit the box or needs rugged protection, especially 24-fiber trays.
Q2. How are the 24 fibers told apart?
The breakout carries the standard 12 colors; fibers 13每24 use the same colors with black / white dot marks on the outer jacket, so each of the 24 ends stays unique.
Q3. SC/APC or LC/UPC?
For FTTH splitter and wall boxes, SC/APC is the default. Use LC/UPC when the panel / equipment is LC-based. Keep polish consistent across the link 〞 never mate APC with UPC.
Q4. 0.9 mm or 1.6 mm buffer?
0.9 mm tight buffer is the standard pigtail format inside splice trays. A 1.6 mm thick tight buffer is made to order only where extra pull / bend strength is wanted at the fan-out 〞 it is always tight buffer, not loose tube.
Q5. MOQ, lead time and private label?
Standard options from 1 pc in 3每7 days. Custom fiber (A2/B3), 1.6 mm, E2K, low-loss and custom labelling are quoted on request. We can print your P/N, logo, serial or QR code.
Values are typical / max per IEC 61300-3-4; production data is governed by the per-shipment factory test report. Standard, non-OEM components interoperate with standard adapters.
