Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of communication equipment, in particular to an optical fiber pigtail. Background Art

[0002] When connecting optical fibers, an adapter is needed to connect the tail ends of the optical fibers through the open sleeve inside the optical fibers to ensure the highest connection performance between the optical fiber jumpers. The optical fiber adapter is an important connecting component in the optical fiber active connector.
