An expansion to its line of LightHouse\u00ae advanced fibre cabling solutions, these 900-micron buffered pigtails are security packaged in a protective recyclable container. Aligned with Siemon&#8217;s commitment to delivering installer-friendly solutions and protecting the environment, this bulk packaging option eliminates individual bags for reduced installation time and waste.<\/p>\n<p>Ideal for splicing applications, the bulk fibre pigtails come in both OM3 and OM4 multi-mode and single-mode fibre types in fibre counts of 12 for SC connectivity and in 12 or 24 for LC connectivity. The pigtails are available with a TIA\/EIA-598-C colour code option for easy identification when splicing, ensuring continuity of colour codes throughout a cable run. The single-mode pigtails also include an APC style connector option to support passive optical networks, CATV and FTTX applications.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;At Siemon, we are always looking for new ways to provide cost savings to our customers, whilst also considering our ongoing commitment to protecting the environment,&#8221; says Nicolas Roussel, technical manager Central Europe for Siemon. &#8220;Not only do these bulk package pigtails eliminate individual bags for reduced labour, freight and waste, but they also provide a savings over non-bulk pigtails that help our customers lower their total bill of material cost.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The new bulk package XGLO fibre optic pigtails exceed TIA\/EIA and ISO\/IEC specifications, including insertion loss and return loss performance and offer a superior connector polish that meets stringent Telcordia and ISO\/IEC specifications for end-face geometry. Warranted for 20 years when installed in a qualified Siemon XGLO system and inspected to ensure superior performance and quality, these pigtails come in 1 and 5 metre lengths and in both riser and low-smoke zero halogen (LS0H) jacket ratings to meet a wide range of requirements.    \t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Siemon, a leading global network infrastructure specialist, has announced the addition of a bulk packaging option for its line of XGLO\u00ae fibre optical pigtails.
