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. In this instructional video, Bob Licari, Test Equipment Product Manager, demonstrates a simple way to strip optical fiber. Properly stripping the cable and preparing the fibre ends ensures a clean and secure connection, leading to optimal signal transmission and network performance. Other types of cables may have different construction or additional layers, but regardless of the number and types of layers involved, the following generally holds true. In this lesson, we will identify and examine cables, then prepare them for splicing or termintion by stripping the cable to expose the coated fibers. Step 1: Mark the armor (if the cable has armor) with the tip of your knife to note a length sufficient to expose the cable's ripcord, being careful not to go through the armor and cut the ripcords.
