Loose Tube
Step 1:
Bring the buffer tubes you wish to splice to the splice tray in your workspace.
Note:
A maximum of 24 loose tube splices can be completed in each splice tray.
Step 2:
Wrap one layer of grommet tape around the buffer tube, 3 feet (1 meter) back from the end of the tube. Trim the
excess grommet tape.
Step 3:
Open the buffer tube roughly 1/4 inch after the grommet tape, being careful not to damage the loose tube fibers.
Note:
If expressing fibers in the buffer tube, remove approximately 3ft/1m of the buffer tube in a window, protecting the
buffer tube on the other side with grommet tape in the same manner as shown here.
Step 4:
Using two small cable ties, secure the buffer tube
into the splice tray.
Note:
When using cable ties/zip ties to secure fibers, do
not use excessive force! Take care not to damage fibers.
