FIBER OPTIC CONNECTOR OF A FIBER OPTIC CONNECTION TERMINATION SYSTEM

摘要

Termination systems and devices disclosed herein use an optical fiber handler that attaches to the optical fiber or buffer layer of an optical fiber and cooperates with other components such as one or more fiber preparation tools for preparing the optical fiber and/or making the optical connection, thereby providing a simple, reliable, and easy termination for the optical fiber (i.e. optical connection). For instance, the handler may cooperate with one or more of the following a strip tool, strip/clean tool, cleave tool for preparing the end of the optical fiber(s), and/or a mechanical splice connector for making the optical connection. More specifically, a fiber optic connector ( 300 ) for making a mechanical splice with an optical fiber secured in an optical fiber handler (10) is disclosed. The fiber optic connector provides the craft with a simple, fast and reliable way for terminating the optical fiber.
