1. Prepare cable ends

Do not kink light guide!
(bending radius min.
30mm)


Do not damage the fiber!
(increased cable
attenuation)

Remove approx. 8 mm of the black fiber sheath.
The fiber must not be damaged during this process.

2. Assemble screw fitting and guide pin

Push screw fitting over the cable. Position the guide pin on the optical fiber
up to the stop. The fiber must project from the connector guide by approx.
2 mm, so that any cracks present in the fiber end face are located outside
the connector (these are subsequently removed by abrasion).
To secure the connector guide insert the clip into the connector body and
press in without canting. Note clip – groove alignment!

The fiber must initially
project by approx. 2 mm!

Clip

~2mm

3. Abrade fiber to final dimension

Do not cut off the projecting fiber end (this could lead to crack formation)
but abrade flush with the connector guide using abrasive paper (600 grain
size). The connector guide must not be abraded during this process.

Abrade the fiber flush with
the guide pin!

4. Check fiber ends

Visual inspection

Simple visual inspection of the abraded fiber ends:
If one cable end is presented to a light source, then a clean, plane face
without cracks must be observed at the other end.

5. Assemble centering collar and socket body

Position centering collar with the thick end on to the guide pin, insert cable
into the socket body and secure with the screw fitting.
