5m to 2m—that has a factory-terminated connector on one end and bare fiber on the other end. A pigtail fiber indicates a short length of optical fiber cable that has a pigtail connector (for example, SC, FC, ST, LC, etc. In fiber optics, pigtails are fusion-spliced to field fiber inside splice trays — the most common termination method in telecom and data center networks. A pigtail is a coiled or looped section of tubing used in piping and instrumentation systems to absorb vibration, manage thermal expansion, and protect pressure instruments from direct exposure to process media. Moreover, its curved design allows it to flex under temperature or pressure changes.
