Fusion splice organizers
Mass fusion splice organizers
Mechanical splice organizers
To splice and install the fiber optic cable:
1. With a cable tie (provided), tie down the incoming fiber
optic cable to the shelf, using the holes provided for this
purpose (Figure 7). Position the cable so that the tie is
on the jacket, about 1 inch (2.5cm) from the edge of
the jacket.
2. On a clean work surface, prepare the incoming
buffered fibers for splicing to the fiber pigtail by
untangling them and laying them out flat.
3. Using the splicing materials appropriate for the type of
splices you are making, splice the incoming buffered
fibers to the pigtail.
4. For fusion splices, use your fingers to place the splices
in the splice organizers (ordered separately) in the
recommended sequence shown in Figure 6.
Note:
The numbers shown in Figure 6 do not appear
on the actual splice organizers.
Note:
Each fusion splice organizer has four
spare positions.
For rotary/ mechanical splices, use a 1012A
compression tool to compress the springs on the
splices and place the splices in the splice organizers
(ordered separately) in the recommended sequence
shown in Figure 6.
