Thank you for this video. I needed this a couple of hours ago. It has been over three years since I have had to work on ribbon fiber until today. I had a 288CT splice to do and I could not for the life of me, remember how to put the fibers in the tray so that Did not look like crap. I’m going to go back out there tomorrow and rearrange it so it looks better.
Thank you for watching and subscribing I really appreciate it🙌🙏 glad to hear my videos are helping you jump back to building with ribbon cables. I find the main thing for making them look nice in the tray is measuring before splicing and then making sure there is no rolls in the ribbon when splicing and then the magical flip to get them to sit in the tray nice after they are secured in the splice chip. Check my ribbon cable playlist out I have lots of tips and tricks through out the videos in that playlist
man im currently an in house field tech and this is really what im wanting to get into been working with fiber to the modem for about a year now this just seems so much more calm than field tech work lol
Nice yea takes some time to learn but yes it is a lot more calm building new networks but can get a bit tricky when going into existing networks and troubleshooting them but other than that it’s always a good time listening to music and building networks
For a 144f takes half hour to 45 mins to splice and then 288 is about a hour to a hour and half to splice total. Thanks for watching and commenting I really appreciate it
Nice work. Your videos are Good. I have a job where I'm tying 2 fibers into a existing splice just like this. Buffer 1 has traffic on all 12 fibers, how would you separate fibers 3/4 from this this exact application to splice to the new fiber?
Hey thanks for watching and commenting🙌 great question well if all 12 fibers are live all depends if it’s a live cut over or are the fibers you are splicing onto suppose to be dead? If they are suppose to be dead and there is traffic on them I would consult with the PM and engineer on finding other fibers to use because you never wanna cut anything that has traffic unless it is stated on the design/prints. If it is a live cut over and it is a 12 fiber ribbon then to separate fiber 3 and 4 you grab the ribbon a few inches away from the splice and lightly pinch it between your thumb and pointer finger to break the ribbon glue coating as you roll the ribbon in between your fingers. It’s a bit hard to explain I will make a quick video and upload it today for you showing and explaining how I access fibers in a live ribbon

9:32 I’ve been doing it the hard way for a year 😂😂😂.. this is gonna make my life a lot freakin easier dude this is golden
Let’s goo glad to hear the videos are helping you out🙌 thanks for watching and subscribing I really appreciate it new video releasing tomorrow

Never knew there was a fusion splicer that could splice multiple fiber at a go
How long did it take you in real time to do all these splices? (144/288 total time)? Thanks!
For a 144f takes half hour to 45 mins to splice and then 288 is about a hour to a hour and half to splice total. Thanks for watching and commenting I really appreciate it
Do you have any tips and advice for when both feed and dist cables are ribbon?
I’m just starting. Your videos are a big help!
Nice glad they are helping you out. Thanks for watching there will be plenty more videos to come 🙌
Buenas tardes, Cuánto se prepara de fibra
So interesting to see how other people splice fiber 😅
Everyone has there own ways.

You can also lightly rotate the ribbon like you would an old school pencil sharpener to unravel the glue and get to the individual fibers you need
Is that an alcohol pen?
nice one buddy. i reallly love your work
thanks for watching i appreciate the kind words
Excellent
zaps on zaps
전체적으로 잘하시지만 현장 경험은 없어 보입니다 현장에선 저렇게 편한 자세와 공간이 나오지 않습니다,
I don't do it that way.
Straight out of the instructions provided. You only left the the proper length to cut for splice and storage. Otherwise a great video.
Thanks for watching and commenting
Mine look better but good work
