No Polish Connector (NPC)
Re-termination
6.1
To re-terminate the NPC connector, remove the connector
from the coupling on the actuation tool and fiber holder
prior to activating the buffer clamp at the boot. Take the
cap popper provided for you in the box of NPC connectors
and place it in the three slots provided on the underside of
the NPC connector shell as shown.
6.2
Firmly press the cap popper into the NPC connector shell
until the activation cap is depressed.
Remove fiber and insert connector with the actuation
cap facing up in the coupling, pushing forward until
it clicks. Follow steps 3.0 through 5.1 to re-terminate
the NPC connector.
6.3
Upon verification that connector has been terminated
satisfactorily, slide the fiber holder up into the back of
the boot. Return to steps 5.2 through 5.6 to complete the
termination of the NPC connector.
