1 Introduction
The RECORDsplice connectivity system is a
splicing system, designed primarily for fiber
access networks, applicable to single mode
and multi mode in any combination of 250μ
and 900μ fiber.
The RECORDsplice connectivity system
consists out of two parts, the splice RPI-
SA100 and the toolkit RPI-TK100. The
connectivity system provides ease of
installation, a short set-up time and does not
require a controlled environment. The tool is
fully mechanical, maintenance free and does
not require any adjustments in the field. The
tool can make a total of 20.000 cleaves and
stores safely all fiber cut-offs.
2 Safety
Laser irradiation can cause serious eye
damages. Follow all local safety regulations
related to optical fiber plant elements.
