The FOA Reference For Fiber Optics

Splicing is only needed if the cable runs are too long for one straight pull or you need to mix a number of different types of cables (like bringing a 48 fiber cable in and splicing it to six 8 fiber cables.)

12 Fibers Pigtails Datasheet | FS

Fiber optic pigtail is a tight buffered fiber cable with connectors pre-terminated on one end and exposed fiber on the other. The exposed end could be stripped and fusion spliced to a single or multi-fiber trunk.

Wiring Methods, Part 2, based on the 2020 NEC

When all conductors within a raceway are the same size and of the same insulation type, you can use Annex C to determine the number of conductors permitted or the raceway size.

Fiber Optic Testing Standards

Any loss higher than a .8 dB after 5 repeated attempts results in the replacement and re-splicing of that pigtail. A reflectance measurement of no less than –50 dB (-55, -60...etc...) is required for acceptance.
