CAUTION
To reduce the ris associated with eye injury:|
- Safety glasses should be worn when handling chemicals and cleaving the optical fiber.
Protective Eyewear
Safety Precautions
WARNING
To reduce the ris associated with fire:
- Storage, use and disposal of isopropyl alcohol should be per your company health, safety and environmental instruc-
tions. Refer to material safety data sheet for health hazards, safe handling, proper use and control measures.
Chemical Precautions
CAUTION
To reduce the ris associated with eye or s in irritation from fiber gel in connector:
- Product contains phenylmethyl silicone (63148-58-3), hydrophobic silica (68611-44-9) and may cause minimal eye
irritation. Avoid contact with eyes and wash hands before eating or smo ing. Upon eye contact, immediately flush
eyes with water while holding eyelids open and continue flushing for ten minutes. Contact a physician. Upon s in
contact, wash with soap and water. Refer to Safety Data Sheet for product information
CAUTION
To reduce the ris associated with handling sharp glass fibers:
- Cleaved glass fibers are sharp and can pierce the s in. Use tweezers when handling shards and dispose of them
properly per your company health and safety instructions.
Bare Fiber Handling
NOTICE
To reduce the ris associated with fiber damage:
- Optical fiber can be damaged by excessive tensile, compressive and bending forces. Consult the manufactures’ spec-
ifications for proper handling instructions.
Fiber/Cable Handling
CAUTION
To reduce the ris associated with eye damage from exposure to laser light:
- Ta e the proper precautions when wor ing with optical fiber because invisible laser light may be present. The prin-
cipal laser hazard when wor ing with fiber optics is injury to the eye. Never loo directly into the fiber or connector
using the na ed eyeor a microscope.

2.0 Termination process
2.1
Put connector boot on cable
2.3 Butt up jac et end against the stop on the cable holder
as shown. Group aramid yarn and insert into one of the
slot next to the stop.
2.2 Remove cable jac et 50mm from the cable end. Cable
holder can be used to measure the length. Align the end
of cable to the double line on the cable holder to meas-
ure 50mm.

5
2.4 Lay the cable straight on the cable holder. Place the ca-
ble in appropriate position in the clamp depending on
fiber type inside cable jac et. And close the cover to
clamp cable
Upper position: cable with
900um coated fiber inside
Lower position: cable with
250um coated fiber inside
Ma e sure fiber sit in fiber guide slit in sliding connect-
or nest.
Slit

2.5 Fully pull out sliding connector nest from the cable
holder. Put mar ing(s) on the fiber with a mar ing pen
1st mar ing: at the edge of holder body
2nd mar ing: at the indicator “0.9”
(900um fiber only)
Mar ing locations for cable with 250µm fiber inside Mar ing locations for cable with 900µm fiber inside

2.6 Bring the sliding nest bac to original position. Strip buffer coating using appropriate stripping tool
Stripping 250µm fiber using disposable stripper
Place cable holder on the stripper such that cable holder butt up against the stop. Close the stripper and pull
out the cable holder
Abut cable holder
against stop
Caution: Do NOT O ERUSE the stripper (up to 20 strip-
ping) or may damage stripped fiber
Caution: Do NOT STRIP the same fiber twice or may dam-
age the stripped fiber.

2.7 Thoroughly clean the stripped fiber with a lint-free wipe and alcohol or cleaning fluid.
2.8 Test the stripped fiber for wea points by using your
finger to slowly flic the fiber in multiple directions.
Watch for the fiber to spring bac to the straight posi-
tion. If the fiber brea s, properly dispose of bro en-off
piece and repeat at Step 2.2.
Note: Do not touch bare glass 10mm from buffer end
2.9 Place the cable holder on a cleaver and push it to the
stop. Cleave the fiber per cleaver manufacture's instruc-
tion.
Note: If cleave length gauge is installed on your cleaver, remove
the gauge prior to connector installation. Save the cleave length
gauge for later use.

Stripping 900µm fiber
Remove coating at the 2nd mar ing and outward with appropriate stripping tool.

2.10 Chec for cleave length and strip length by pulling out sliding connector nest of cable holder.
Glass fiber end
900µm buffer end
250µm buffer end
Too short Too long Right length
Fiber end/buffer end must be within respective gauge window (900µm buffer shown as example)
2.11 Pull out buffer clamp to release buffer
2.12 Remove connector from the plastic bag. Attach the connector to sliding connector nest with splice cap
facing up. Pinch side of sliding connector nest to allow fiber guide protrude downward. (see Section
2.13)

9
2.14 Chec for buffer clamp. If the clamp is partially actuated, remove the connector and repeat at Section
2.12
2.15 Hold the cable holder by both sides. SLOWLY slide
bac the connector to insert fiber into the connector.
Caution: Do NOT TOUCH CABLE until splice is actuated
at Section 2.17.
2.13 Be aware of fiber guide protruding downward until
splice is acutated
Caution: Do NOT PUSH UP fiber guide or connector may
pop out from cable holder
2.16 Chec for mar ing on buffer at the end of buffer clamp.
If mar ing is not at this position, pull out the sliding
head and chec for fiber length again per Section 2.10.
And insert fiber again per Section 2.15

10
2.17 Flip bac actuation lever on the dust cap and fully press down the lever
2.18 Chec if cap is fully actuated. If not, press down lever again
2.19 Slide boot next to the holder
2.20 Release holder cover and bring boot closer to connector

11
2.21 Remove aramid yarn from the slot and lay it on connect-
or
2.22 Hold aramid yarn and connector TOGETHER and re-
move from the cable holder.
Caution: Keep holding aramid yarn and connector togeth-
er until boot is secured to the connector. Failure to do so
may induce twist in fiber resulting in fiber break later
2.23 WHILE HOLDING ARAMID YARN AND CONNECTOR TOGETHER WITH ONE HAND, ta e
about half of aramid yarn with another hand and bring it to the bottom side of connector.

12
2.25 Fully tighten boot WHILE HOLDING ARAMID
YARN AND CONNECTOR TOGETHER.
2.26 Trim off excess aramid yarn with snips. Termination
completed.
2.24 Bring boot up to connector
Caution: Keep holding aramid yarn and connector togeth-
er until boot is secured to connector. Failure to do so may
induce twist in fiber resulting in fiber break later

3.0 Duplexing No Polish LC-JG1 Connectors
3.1 No Polish LC-JG1 can be duplexed without using extra parts. Two connectors can dovetail together to
form duplex connector
3.2 Identify dovetailing features on both sides of connector body
3.3 Dovetail two connectors to assemble them together
3.4 Ma e sure latches are fitting together

14
4.0 Connector re-open
4.1 Insert two fol s on the dust cap into slots on bac side of connector
4.2 Unscrew and remove boot from connector.
