This tool was tailored made for the installer so that they have one tool that can do all the jobs of installation". The FiberFin hand tool can terminate the fiber; strip the jacket to the proper length with consistent results every time, which is a must for the professional installer. The termination is done by clamping the POF cable into place and then squeezing it and then a very precise round razor blade can cut the cable with a scissor like action without damaging the fiber.
Damage to the fiber is a very common occurrence when you try to just cut POF with a normal razor blade, The exit cut will chip the fiber and cladding and the cut will not be as precise and perpendicular as with the FiberFin termination system that has a average attenuation loss 1.0 –1.5 db. The special blade on the FiberFin "all In One Tool" is mounted on manual turned assembly that rotates the blade by hand so it's up to the installer to achieve even wear on the cutting blade and constant fiber termination results. You are able to put on the replacement cutting head. The FiberFin's termination of POF is the best way to terminate POF in the Field. |
