Termination Procedure

Remove the connector components from the plastic bag and
identify the following items: Strain Relief Boot,Compression Collar Housing, Compression Collar, Frame, Spring, Coupling Nut, Ferrule retainer.

Place the strain relief boot, compression collar housing,
compression collar with the shoulder forward & frame on to the fiber optic cable to be terminated.

Prepare the cable as per the diagram.



Place the frame ensuring that the tabs are pointing forward and the spring on to the fiber optic cable in such a way that the frame is holding the aramid yarn and a little bit of aramid yarn about 7-10mm is still there on the back side of the frame.

Clean the fiber with alcohol and cleaning wipe such as Kim Wipes.

Insert a syringe tip in to the tube until it bottoms against the ferrule. Inject epoxy into the connector body until a small bead appears at the end of the ferrule. Do not overfill or let epoxy flow out the back of the tube.

Insert the fiber in to the ferrule until the buffer bottoms against the ferrule. There should be no epoxy running from the back.

Cure epoxy as per the selected epoxy/adhesive manufacturer recommendations.

Cleave the fiber.

Assemble the connector with the Coupling Nut and Ferrule Retainer.

Polish the connector, inspect and install the dust cap to prevent damage to the end face.
