2. Basic splicing operation
This section outlines fiber preparation procedures in using a fiber cleaver with
a single fiber adapter “AP-FC6SA” (option).
2. Remove the fiber coating
from the mark using a jacket
remover.
1. Put a mark at 3mm (for use of
40mm sleeve) or 10mm (for
use of 60mm sleeve) away from
the cable end.
3. Clean the bare fiber from the
end of the fiber coating with
a gauze pad moistened with
pure alcohol. Pull the bare
fiber through the gauze pad
and rotate the fiber to
remove any coating residue.
4. Place the drop cable into the
adapter.
For use of 40mm sleeve
Place the end of the cable sheath
with the edge of the adapter and
hold the adapter.
For use of 60mm sleeve
Place the end of the cable sheath at
20mm mark on the cleaver.
*Cleave the fiber in a correct way
as a cleaver manual describes.
