  2. Fiber cable termination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiber_cable_termination

    Splicing of pigtails to each fiber in the trunk "breaks out" the multi-fiber cable into its component fibers for connection to the end equipment. Pigtails can have female or male connectors. Female connectors could be mounted in a patch panel , often in pairs although single-fiber solutions exist, to allow them to be connected to endpoints or ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_fiber

    The coatings protect the very delicate strands of glass fiber—about the size of a human hair—and allow it to survive the rigors of manufacturing, proof testing, cabling, and installation. The buffer coating must be stripped off the fiber for termination or splicing. Today's glass optical fiber draw processes employ a dual-layer coating ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line_splice

    Splicing of glass fibers by thermal fusion splice. Fiber optic cable sleeve Fiber optic cable splicer. Fiber-optic cables are spliced using a special arc-splicer, with installation cables connected at their ends to respective "pigtails" - short individual fibers with fiber-optic connectors at one end. The splicer precisely adjusts the light ...

  5. Splicebox - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Splicebox

    The splice cassette is removable in order to assemble fiber optics with a splice unit. The front panel can also be removed to splice the fibers to various connectors. Since modern splice cassettes already contain a splice tray, a splice holder, couplings and pigtails , the installation of the cables is facilitated.

  6. Optical fiber connector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_fiber_connector

    Optical fiber connectors are used in telephone exchanges, for customer premises wiring, and in outside plant applications to connect equipment and fiber-optic cables, or to cross-connect cables. Most optical fiber connectors are spring-loaded, so the fiber faces are pressed together when the connectors are mated.

  7. Rat-tail splice - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rat-tail_splice

    A rat-tail splice, also known as a twist splice or a pig-tail splice, is a basic electrical splice that can be done with both solid and stranded wire. It is made by taking two or more bare wires and wrapping them together symmetrically around the common axis of both wires. The bare splice can be insulated with electrical tape or by other means.
