4.16 Buffer Tube Branching
Determine the number of buffer tubes
that will need to be branched off to be spliced.
Cut these select buffer tubes on the exit side (full
length of the ring cut) and separate these from
the remainder buffer tubes that will pass through.
Utilize lower fiber management clips to secure
your “Feed Through Fiber” and upper clips to
secure your spliced fibers.
4.19 Splice Tray Routing
Place the completed splice tray within the
Optima 16 base. Route the branched off buffer
tube(s) accordingly along with how the pigtail
slack will be routed.
4.17 Attach Tie-Wraps
Using the supplied tie-wraps insert into
each fiber management clip on the upper side of
the base to hold the branched off buffer tubes.
4.18 Splice Input Fiber to Pigtail
Following your splicers manual, splice the
appropriate number of fibers from the branched
off buffer tube to that of the provided or separately
purchased pigtail.
(Multilink is NOT responsible for
any damages or drastic light loss if splicing is not
performed by a trained technician following the
necessary instructions.)
