this is a terrible video...all that bending back and forth of the cable you'll brake the core tube. And, everything is so nice and comfy in an office environment but when you're actually doing that you'll be outside on the side of the road or in a ditch with a picnic size table. You can't use a vice either to hold and squeeze the cable you'll damage it.
This is how the manufacturers tell you to prepare their cable. It's industry standard. You won't break anything. And yes, you can clamp to your work table on the side of the road (or get a splicing trailer).
It's more flex than a bend. It's the manufacture I'm sure they know how much flexing can be done. To hold a cable in a vise will not damage it if you don't crush it. All cables of any size has a maximum bend radius, and have to pass a crushing test. Armored cables, I'm sure you can stand on it and you won't crush it.
Wow where did you get that huge fiber trailer
Can you please share where one can purchase a central tube splitter tool like the one they used?
Ryan Peel The tool is a Corning UAT3-000 Universal Access Tool. It can be purchased at a number of distributors like Fiberoptic.com
where did you got the clamp holders to secure the fiber?

Thanks
What is a 6 core multimode fiber cable
And TRIPLE CHECK for fibers before cutting the tubing. You'll only do it once. Was a very bad day. :(
I am not as graceful, so I always tape the strength members (artery finders) after cutting them. LOL!
Looks like her hair is a safety concern

The cable is very durable and working a cable like this will not break the central tube.
