Installation instructions for the Panduit PN394C connector assembly, covering safety precautions and termination procedures for 900µm tight-buffered fiber.
This document provides installation instructions for the Panduit PN394C connector assembly. It includes a list of required items such as the OPTICAM Termination Tool (OCTT), various stripping tools, and safety equipment like safety glasses and alcohol bottles.
The guide details specific procedures for terminating 900µm tight-buffered fiber and jacketed cables. Key steps include using the OCTT tool to align fibers, stripping buffer material according to precise dimensions, cleaving the fiber, inserting it into the connector body, and verifying alignment using a laser fault locator before final camming.
The document specifies using reagent grade isopropyl alcohol with a minimum 90% concentration.
At least 1.18" (30mm) of buffer must be stripped using the buffer stripper.
The ceramic blade should be replaced after every 1000 cleaves or if installation yield decreases.
