How to Install the MPO Splice-On Connector
This guide provides step-by-step instructions for installing the MPO Splice-On Connector for bare ribbon and 3mm round fiber.
Estimated time: 1h
Tools needed:
Fiber Cleaver, Jacket Remover, Fiber Holder, Multimeter
Supplies needed:
Splice-On Connector, Adhesive, Sponge, Terminal connectors
- Prepare the fiber
Use the jacket remover to strip the outer coating of the fiber, exposing the bare fiber for splicing.
- Cleave the fiber
Place the stripped fiber into the fiber cleaver and cleave it to ensure a clean cut for optimal splicing.
- Set up the splice-on connector
Slide the rear parts, spring, and protection sleeve onto the ribbon fiber, then set the fiber holder on the splicer.
- Perform the fusion splice
Set the MT stub on the plastic holder, then fusion splice according to the splicer’s instructions.
- Heat the protection sleeve
Confirm the position of the protection sleeve on the spliced fiber, then place it into the heater to secure the splice.
- Finalize the installation
Remove the dummy cap, slide the protection sleeve to the MT stub, and secure the assembly by putting on the boot.
