We switched to fusion splicing with splice on connectors once we started doing fiber on a daily basis. As such, we have a complete 3M Crimplok kit that we can sell you for way below the price of a new one. If it's not the same thing he's using in that video, it's at least very similar. It was used probably half a dozen times in real life, plus maybe 20 practice ends. email me at [email protected] if you're interested and I'll send you photos of the whole kit.
Then, on to termination....are most of you using the scoring tool and the field-installable ends that you squeeze to crimp? Are these recommended? Where is the best place to purchase these ends and tools? I have attached Mike's video of this process (which makes it look very simple btw)
