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:
Screwdriver, Fiber cleaver, Jacket remover, Multimeter
Supplies needed:
Splice-On Connector, Mounting screws, Terminal connectors, Alcohol wipes
- Prepare the fiber
Slide the rear parts, spring, and protection sleeve onto the ribbon fiber. Ensure the fiber is clean and free from any debris.
- Cleave the fiber
Use the fiber cleaver to cleave the fiber, ensuring there is no gap. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for optimal results.
- Set up the splice
Place the cleaved fiber into the fiber holder on the splicer. Ensure the fiber is properly aligned and secure.
- Perform the arc test
Activate the splicer and perform the arc test to ensure proper functionality. Follow the prompts on the splicer display.
- Fusion splice the fibers
Initiate the fusion splicing process on the splicer. Wait for the splicing to complete and confirm the splice quality.
- Heat the protection sleeve
Slide the protection sleeve over the splice and place it in the heater. Confirm the position before heating.
- Finalize the installation
Once the sleeve has cooled, remove it from the heater, and secure the boot over the splice. Ensure all components are tightly fitted.
