The Ox-FAC-08 Field Angled Fiber Cleaver is used to reduce back reflection in field terminations by cleaving the optical fiber at an angle. The Ox-FAC-08 achieves a cleave of 8 degrees for 125 um singlemode and PM fiber. |

| Ox-FAC-** Field Angled Cleaver | |||||
| Featuring: | |||||
| - Angled cleaving of
125um singlemode and PM optical fiber - Average end angle of 8 degrees (+/- 1 degrees) - Mirror smooth end faces , no hackle - Minimal glass roll-off - Easy to use with "stapler" action - Multi-position diamond blade | |||||
| Benefits: | |||||
| - Reduced back
reflection: <-60dB - Fast operation: greater throughput - Ease of use: no training required - Accuracy of end angle: no relcleaving - Rugged construction - Long blade lifetime - Value for money | |||||
| Operation: | |||||
| The fiber is placed in a
2-lid fiber holder. The tool has a "stapler" like action. Closing the tool
clamps the fiber using low-impact rubber clamps, tensions and bends the
fiber. The clamping mechanism then swings down on to a diamond blade which
score the fiber to give an 8 degree angled cleave. The angle end reduces the back reflection to less than -60dB. | |||||
| Features: | |||||
| - Unique swinging clamp
design to reduce stresses during cleaving - Easy fiber loading using 2-part fiber clamp - "Stapler" action to reduce operator skill required - Multi-position diamond blade for long-life operation - Rugged construction for field use and low maintenance | |||||
| Optional Factory Settings: | |||||
| - Fixed end angle: 8
degrees - Single mode fiber diameter: 125um - Clamping onto 250um or 900um coating - Pre-set cleave lengths | |||||
