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.

3.2 Splice

English

• Use a strap (not supplied) attached on

the strap holder (18) when installing on

ladders/heights .

• Do not submerge the RCAT in water.

• Never open the RCAT housing; it con-

tains fiber waste and micro mechanisms.

• Compressed air can be used for cleaning

the tool, but do not clean the fiber

entrance hole (11) with compressed air.

Use safety glasses when using

compressed air.

5 Important guidelines

•Use high quality tools to strip

fibers.

•Clean the fibers with isopropyl

alcohol. Electrostatic charge on the

fiber may lead to malfunctioning of

the RECORDsplice tool. Test: move

the fiber slowly within a few

millimeters distance to the

RECORDsplice housing. If the fiber

is deflected towards the housing

(visible bending of the fiber), the

fiber is electrostatically charged.

Repeat cleaning the fiber with a

cloth soaked with isopropyl alcohol

and repeat the test.

•Bend the fiber to detect eventual

fiber damage after stripping.

• The RCAT is maintenance free; do not

lubricate any part of the RCAT.

• When transporting the RCAT, use its

transport case, to protect it from shock

and impact.

• Carry the RCAT with its handle (17).

• If needed, use a small soft brush to clean

the RCAT; do not use any kind of

chemicals!

• Never use a tool to activate parts on the

RCAT.

• Do not insert anything in the fiber

entrance hole except fiber.

• Only remove a splice from its package

when it will be installed.

• Only remove the dust caps from the

splice when it will be installed.

• If a splice falls after the dust cap(s) are

removed, do not use the splice.

• Manipulate the splice only by hand,

never use a tool.

• No other cleaver or assembly tool is

approved for use with this system.

• Only open the splice holder cover (5)

when the program controller (2) is in the

S or 1 position.

6 General installation advice

• The installer should be in a comfortable

position to install.

• Before starting the installation, all tools

should be within arm’s reach.

• The minimum fiber lengths for cassettes

are defined in the installation instruction

of the network element. The design of tool

and splice allow, with proper positioning,

fiberlength as short as 200 mm or 8”.

• The RCAT tool is designed to facilitate

ease of installation. The program

controller (2) will drive the appropriate

mechanisms inside for each installation

step and block the others, resulting in the

correct order of sequence of installation.

The program controller can only be

rotated up to and released to the next

position, if the appropriate following

installation steps are taken. Do not use

excessive force on locked components

as this can result in malfunction and

damage of the tool.

• Verify the cleave counter window (15).

An estimation can be made of the

number of cleaves which still can be

made. When the maximum number of

7.1.1 The RCAT can be mounted on a

tripod or any fixture by using the mounting

plate.

7.1.2 To have access to the splice holder

and fiber insert, hinge the handle (17). Turn

the program controller, counterclockwise,

from locked to start S position.

7 Installation instruction

7.1 Installation of tool

• Insert and clamp a 900μ fiber with an

extreme memory effect by following the

rounded shape of the fiber holder (7).

This procedure facilitates fiber insert of

the cleaved fiber in the splice.

•Respect the minimum and

maximum fiber stripping lengths.

Too long stripped fiber can disable

the RCAT (see 7.3.1).

cleaves is reached, it is impossible to

turn the program controller (2) and the

tool can not be used anymore. Be aware

that the counter mechanism is driven by

the program controller. Each full turn,

will be registered as a cleave, even when

this is done without fiber - e.g. demo

purpose.

• Make sure that the network element and

the tool are securely positioned in order to

avoid installation problems or fiber

breakage. Correct positioning can be

ensured by attaching the network

element and the RCAT to the mounting

bracket.

• Never cleave a fiber when the front fiber-

clamp is in the open position and never

clamp a 900 μ semi-tight coated fiber in

the front fiberclamp. This could result in

the damage of the cleave-diamond-

blade.

7.2 Installation of splice in tool

7.2.1 Remove the splice from the blister

package. Remove the dust caps using the

dust cap cutting plate (3).

English

7.2.2 Open the splice holder cover (5) by

pulling the blue splice-holder lever (6). Mount

the splice into the splice holder (4). Close the

splice holder cover. Make sure that the splice

holder is free of any dirt.

7.2.3 Bring the fiber holder (7) into the

vertical position.

7.2.4 Turn the program control (2)

clockwise to position 1 . Verify if the splice

holder (4) is in its locked position. Bring the

fiber holder (7) into the cleave position by

pushing it down to the locked position. A

latching click will be heard when completed.

‘Click’

7.3 Fiber stripping/cleaning

7.3.1 250μ and 900μ tight to 125μ:

Stripping length: min. 45mm-,1.75” -

max. 58 mm-2.25”.

7.3.2 900μ semi tight: for semi-tight it is

recommended to strip the buffer over a long

length as described in the network element

and proceed as with the 250μ. The

minimum stripping length is 140 mm.

7.3.3 For ease of installation one can use

the striplength indicator (8) to verify the fiber

stripping length.

7.4.1 Make sure the fiber clamp lever (10)

is in position II.

7.4 Cleaving/fiber insertion in the

splice

7.3.5 • The cleaned bare glass exposed

after stripping should not be in contact

with tools, fingers, etc.

• The glass should only be touched

by an appropriate lint-free clean cloth,

soaked in high-purity isopropyl alcohol.

• The number of passes over the fiber

should be limited (optimally one pass)

and the cloth should be replaced

regularly with a new cloth (when using a

cleaning tissue impregnated with

isopropyl alcohol. Replace the cleaning

tissue after each splice made).

• The fiber should be placed in the

RCAT immediately after cleaning to

reduce the effect of any airborne

contaminants.

7.4.2 Use the width of the RCAT as a

length indicator to hold the fiber.

Electrostatic charge on the fiber may lead to

malfunctioning of the RECORDsplice tool.

Test: move the fiber slowly within a few

millimeters distance to the RECORDsplice

housing. If the fiber is deflected towards the

housing (visible bending of the fiber), the

fiber is electrostatically charged. Repeat

cleaning the fiber with a cloth soaked with

isopropyl alcohol and repeat the test.

7.3.4 Bend the fiber to detect

eventual fiber damage after stripping.

English

7.4.3 Guide the prepared fiber

configuration through the front fiber clamp

(9) and through the fiber entrance hole (11).

Insert and push until it goes no further (the

fiber will buckle and the finger tips will touch

the fiber holder). Maintain the buckle while

closing the front fiber clamp (9) by hinging

the fiber clamp lever (10) in position III. If the

fiber can not be inserted in the fiber entrance

hole (11), follow instructions in section 8.2.

7.4.5 Turn the program control in position 2 .

Cleave status is marked in cleave control

window (13). The cleave is OK when the red

indicator is in the OK position and the

program controller (2) in position 2 .

In case of error: follow instructions in

section 8.3.

7.4.4 Bend the fiber over the fiber holder.

Clamp the fiber in the back fiber clamp (12)

by hinging the fiber clamp lever (10) in

position IIII.

7.6.1 To install a tight 900 μ fiber, use a

fiber guiding block.

7.6 Insertion of 900 μ tight fiber in the

splice

7.6.2 Position the fiber guiding block on

the tool.

7.6.3 Slide the fiber guiding block

underneath the fiber holder.

7.5 Insertion of 250 μ fiber in the splice

7.5.1 Lift the fiber holder (7) and hinge it

to the horizontal position (without sliding).

Check the cleave length and position of the

coating using the cleave length indicator

(14). If the length is not correct, follow

instructions in section 8.4.

7.5.2 Guide the cleaved fiber into the

splice by sliding gently the fiberholder (7) till

it clicks. If during this action the fiber buckles

extensively, pull back the fiberholder (7) and

slide again.
