In this informative guide, we'll walk you through the step-by-step process of stripping and preparing fibre optic cable for termination, covering techniques, tools, and best practices to help you achieve successful terminations in your fibre optic installations. Marcel Buijs, EMEA Business Development, Technical Sales, Fiber Optic Center, Inc. with over twenty-five years in the photonics industry, brings the latest information on making the ultimate fiber optic product and improving process yield. Without question, good stripping techniques in your fiber. Fiber strippers are precision tools that reliably and cleanly remove a defined length of coating (often 30–40 mm) from a fiber end so that the bare glass is exposed without scratching or nicking it. A fiber guide and matched blades ensure that the optical fiber is correctly positioned and stripped each time. 2 Corning Cable Systems ribbon interconnect cables are lightweight, flame retardant cables designed for high performance transmission of digital and analog signals in process. Almost every aspect of fiber optic installation requires specialized tools, for example, strippers, Cutting, and scissors come in many shapes and sizes, each serving a different purpose.
