Optical fiber

An optical fiber cable is a cable containing one or more optical fibers. Typically, the optical fiber
elements are individually coated with plastic layers and contained in a protective tube. Optical fiber
cables contain single-mode and multi-mode optical fiber cables.

Patch cord

A fiber that has connectors at both ends is called a patch cord. A patch cord connects one optical
device to another for signal routing. Patch cords contain single-mode and multi-mode patch cords.
•
Single-mode patch cord—The jacket is yellow. It permits transmission over longer distances.
•
Multi-mode patch cord—The jacket is orange. It permits transmission over shorter distances.
Patch cords are mainly classified into SC, LC, and FC based on interface type. The typical length of
a patch cord can be 0.5 m (1.64 ft), 1 m (3.28 ft), 2 m (6.56 ft), 3 m (9.84 ft), 5 m (16.40 ft), and 10 m
(32.81 ft).

Pigtail cord

A pigtail cord is an optical fiber that has an optical connector on one end and a length of exposed
fiber on the other. The end of the pigtail is fusion spliced to a fiber, connecting the fiber cable and
transceiver.
Pigtail cords contain single-mode (yellow) and multi-mode (orange) pigtail cords. Based on interface
type, pigtail cords can also be classified into three main types, SC, LC, and FC.

Fiber connector

Fiber connectors are indispensable passive components in an optical fiber communication system.
They allow the removable connection between optical channels, which makes the optical system
