Thanks for sharing. I am an interpreter, and I am preparing for a conference about Optic Fiber, the speaker is from Australia, so the video is perfect! Thanks a lot, again!
dude you're the man. I've been doing copper cabling my whole life and this is a breeze compared to what we had to go through for copper. Thank you so much fro this video.
what copper cables goes way faster than this.
@@BurkenProductions Not when you're colorblind
Very clear and thorough instructions, the others looked at so far failed to mention the safety aspects. Thanks!
Hey, this is BY FAR the best video I've seen on how to do mechanical termination and splicing! BRAVO!
Thank you for this informational video.
Fiber has become so cheap that I am thinking of upgrading my copper network inside my house.
Thankyou you mate you must be one of the best teacher i have seen and appreciate you sharing your skills true man of knowledge
I'm finally glad theres videos on youtube on how to do fiber optics. there was barely anything 6-7 years ago.
Thanks mate; my internet was down for 3 hours. Your video helped me to fix it.
Great video. Very well explained and demonstrated.
Thanks.
Wow thank you so much! For me installation and connection of fibre optic lines have been a mystery, until now.
I will definantly buy some sfp modules and a fibre kit and experiment!
very informative and easy to understand.
Great video post. This one is a keeper.
Thank You for this wonderful video .. Absolutely love it
I didnt' even realize it's tiny and sharp. Never done this before but at least I know the how and what i need to know. Thx.
Indeed a good video. I might have to make a fiber cable longer, so this will definitely be useful tools!
-And I see on your web-site that LC connectors are available, so I don't need to think about using pigtails if I need to make my own LC repairs. :)
nice presentation well done, as long as yo have the proper tools and equipment you can splice/terminate FOC. Thanks a lot!
Bro you’ve help me gain understanding of the mechanical splicer. Ta
Do you sell a kit that includes the tools that you used in this video? If not, it would be great to put one together with a few SC connectors, splices, and a few meters of fiber to practice on.
Geez! So this is what running, terminating, and splicer fiber is all about? I thought it was harder than doing copper Cat 5/5e/6/6a runs, terminations, and crimping. Okay, I am so ready in telling all I can do such now. Thanks, you're the man! Many years late, but better than never.
Very interesting video 👍
Thanks mate!
Does this work with OM4?. The lightguide in that stuff is terrifyingly thin. Will the core snap when I do the 'small hole' mechanical scrape prior to the alcohol wipe? : / Would I need different tools/connectors for OM4?
As I'm wiring the entire property 'in wall' I'd like to ensure that the fibre will be ready for faster speeds in the future.
Nice 👍
Thanks for the video. I have a question: I am working on a bedroom decoration using fiber cables for lighting - not a data application. I have a bundle of about 100 x .75 mm fiber optic cables. I need to cleanly cut through all of them at once. The clever's I'm finding are for data applications and cleve one cable at a time. What tool could I use to cut the bundle all at once to create a clean cut? -Frank
Sorry Frank, I'm not sure of any clean way to do this, and nothing comes up when I Google it. You might be up for doing them one at a time, unless someone else here has any suggestions?
@@dintekaustralia8880 Thank you for your reply and for looking for a solution. I found a 2 inch cable cutter works. It cleanly cuts the end of a bundle of strands all at once. I found it on Amazon for $30. -Frank
Hi Darren, may i ask you about fiber optic attenuation? If the length of the optic cable is bellow the specifications, is it can cause signal attenuation? Let say we have laser that purposely design for 40 kilometers connection, but we use it only for 500 meters connection
Interesting question. I don't have any experience with trying this but I suspect the receiver may be damaged if it is over-driven. Not to mention paying a lot more than necessary for the fibre module. Other than that, I wouldn't expect issues with attenuation as such.
Can you send me the exact list of the strippers, clever, testers and your connectors you are using for for SC & LC cabling? Your video is great. I do a lot of Ethernet including shielded but not fiber. This video is great for beginners with fiber and looks easy with care.

Dude!!!!!!, you are the shit!!!!, in a good way 100%!, nice info, tips, you know how to do this bro!, ty fr!.
Is SC Conector the conector which is found on the TOSlink cable which is used in proffesional musical Instruments?
Toslink (Toshiba-Link) is a type of SPDIF (Sony/Philips Digital Interface) digital audio cable developed by Toshiba. You'll find them on TVs, Home Theatre systems and musical instruments. See en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TOSLINK. They are similar but not quite the same as SC connectors. I dug up this video of someone modifying an SC connector to fit a Toslink port - ruclips.net/video/shXn0nKHjTU/видео.html. (Optic fibre is a lot less complicated than a lot of people realise. As long as you can get the light to where it needs to go, without the connector moving around or falling out, it'll usually work).
Your explanation of fiber dangers reminded me of exactly what our instructor said... We use Leviton Fastcam's... They're just about fool proof... Do you ever use "Click" cleaners?
Sorry, no I haven't tried Click cleaners. Do you have a link to them?
This looks really easy! Can you tell me what diameter the glass fiber is? I'm needing to terminate 9/125 OS2 single mode cable, will this method work?
It's suitable for 250 μm and/or 900 μm buffered fibers. More info at www.dintek.com.tw/index.php/ezi-fiber-mechanical-splice.html
Usually you don't do it this way. You use a pigtail and just splice that onto the main fibre.
I'm sorry sir, the little connection with the clear colored fiber optic clamp is what is it called, and what is it on sale to the public? I am from Indonesia
Do you mean the mechanical splice at 6:07? Unfortunately we're based in Australia but if you Google "dintek indonesia" you should find a local supplier.
Will it passed the Fluke tester?
Great
What kind of wire is that one????
Where can I get the tools which you used on the video?
Unfortunately we no longer have stock here in Australia but try www.dintek.com.tw/index.php/Contact.html
With this rank underneath installation for fiber
that is fast connector, i didn't see in this video that after you connect the sc connector, there is no polishing the connector and make a testing what is the db
No, no polishing is required. More detail and specifications can be found at dintek.com.tw/index.php/fiber-ezi-fiber-connect-system/ezi-fiber-mechanical-splice.html
I'm being supplied with the older model square connector from NBN and they don't work well I had to use fly leads and splice each unit 14 of them and in the MDF rooms cheap products are a waste of time
I want to know more.

Very interesting, but is not better protecting your eyes powering off the tracker light machine? According the documents I studied you would never look the fiber light. Protect your retines!
The light from the fibre checker tool is low intensity and is quite safe to look at. The worst that might happen if you look directly into the light is you might see "purple balloons" for a few minutes. However, it is important to never look directly into a fibre if you don't know whether or not it's live. The risk is still fairly low but some lasers are bright enough to cause permanent damage or blindness. There's also another possibility. While most lasers also include a light within the visible spectrum for exactly this reason, there may be some that don't. These may not trigger a blink response because you can't see it, so you could be staring into a powerful light for an extended time without realising it. I go into this in more detail from around 13:58 in the video at ruclips.net/video/s4chPboBwpE/видео.html
What cleaver are you using?
You'll find some details towards the bottom of the page at www.dintek.com.au/products/optic-fibre-technology/
Hello I am looking for similar ezi ST connectors
Please contact DINTEK HQ - www.dintek.com.tw/index.php/Contact.html
I rarely splice patch cables or fiber that I am able to connect a VFL to the end of. Most of the time the other end is miles away and not terminated. Looks like the Corning Unicam system is a little better.
I mainly use a Fitel fusion splicer but when I use mechanical splicing/terminations, we use a Corning Unicam as well.
once you have a fiber in your fingers, you will never touch a fiber tip again!

@@rishal4416hard to extract, painful
I take the cladding off when terminating the fiber
Good luck with that :)
Learn any more~~
I've been lied to.
I've been under the impression that terminating optical cable is a right pain and is very difficult.
nope, it's as easy as doing cat6 ethernet cable XD
It increases losses
You can take cladding off though
That is what the “extra coating is” that is the cladding and it wont cleave without taking it off
@@jordanprice11 No, the cladding is made of glass and is part of the fibre. It is not an extra layer of coating that can be removed, even if it was possible. If you were able to remove it, the fibre would not function anymore because it would no longer be capable of total internal reflection. See also this video - ruclips.net/video/N_kA8EpCUQo/видео.html and the video we made about total internal reflection at ruclips.net/video/ftj1rQQds_U/видео.html. There's also a good video about how optic fibre is made at ruclips.net/video/6CqT4DuAVxs/видео.html
so do you use an alcohol wipe or something different you never specified
3:57
80's/90's network guy here, popped by to learn about these newfangled comms cables, having recently had FTTP installed. Unfortunately the phrase "small enough to enter the bloodstream" elected my inner Samuel L. Jackson. HELL, NO! This is one bit of hands-on that this ageing IT manager will be leaving to the kids. Plus, I always knew that eventually my eyesight and finger dexterity would someday fall below the march of miniaturisation.
:D
As cheap as you can get a fusion splicer for now, I don't know why you would use this method.
Sure, if you were only concerned with splices and were doing them every day, then you'd buy a fusion splicer and it would soon pay for itself. But if repairing fibre wasn't an everyday occurrence and you also occasionally needed to re-terminate a connector, then mechanical splices and connectors are a cheaper and easier alternative.
I still don't believe the light is carrying the data in these cables. It could be some sort of trick, where a copper electrical signal is still being used, & the optics is just for testing.
Ever measured the speed of light in a simple way?
It's easy to check for any metals in the cable, or to ensure there are no other cables involved in the connection. Measuring the speed of light inside the optic fibre is another story, and may not even be possible with 100% accuracy. See ruclips.net/video/pTn6Ewhb27k/видео.html. However, we can certainly measure latency and data transfer speed to a sufficient degree.
@@dintekaustralia8880 Yes I misunderstood. It turns out optical fiber will transmit EM waves, light & ultrasound. So skeptics like myself will claim that your laser may as well be ultrasound - but easier to use. The light just happens to follow the same path as the EM waves.
The idea is that you can transmit gigantic amounts of data cheaply & quickly by confining an EM wave to a cable of some sort - & optical fiber happens to be better than coax. No metal or conductivity is necessary above some frequency - just the dielectric constant & perfect fiber.
When I look at videos of invisible fish, where we can see straight through the brain & skeleton, it makes me think the light itself might be part of a nuclear force field, & some genes in our DNA could make all our fat, skin & muscle fully transparent - even the milk from a cow could be invisible. So I'm thinking 51% likely light isn't EM after all...

Yeah… don’t handle that without gloves mate. No smart. Cheers from Canada. I use it commercially
I work with fiberoptic
you look like my father . but you are just white :D
All the videos saying fiber is harder to terminate than ethernet... Much quicker than lining up 8 different colored wires.
Unnecessarily long
