What is a fiber optic pigtail used for?
A fiber optic pigtail cable is made up of a short strand of fiber. A connector at one end that interfaces with the equipment and bare fiber at the other end to be spliced to the fiber of the main cable.
At the bare end of the pigtail cable, the colored coating (Coating) is stripped and fused or spliced to a fiber or a multi-fiber trunk.
A pigtail splice "opens up" the multi-fiber backbone for connection to end equipment.
