This 22-piece FTTH fibre termination kit packs a rechargeable optical power meter (-70 to +10dBm, 10 wavelengths), a rechargeable 15mW visual fault locator, an AUA-6C fibre cleaver and the strippers and accessories needed to prepare fibre for cold connectors or fusion splicing, all in a zipped shoulder bag.
The mini power meter covers 10 test wavelengths with wavelength memory, network (RJ45) cable testing and an LED light, through a 2.5mm universal SC/FC/ST port. The metal-bodied 15mW VFL uses the same 2.5mm SC/FC/ST interface and switches between CW, OFF and GLINT. The AUA-6C cleaver has an automatic knife return and a three-in-one fixture for hot melt and cold joint work, and comes with its own anti-drop bag. For stripping there is a CFS-3 three-port stripper (2 to 3mm jacket, 900 to 250um buffer, 250 to 125um coating), a plastic drop cable stripper for 1 or 2 core indoor and outdoor cable, a fixed length device for cold connectors and CR13 stainless steel aramid scissors.
Features and Benefits
- Test and termination in one bag: meter, fault locator, cleaver and strippers for a full FTTH drop.
- Optical power meter, -70 to +10dBm with 10 wavelengths and RJ45 testing: check light levels and LAN cables on the same visit.
- 15mW VFL with CW and flashing modes: find breaks and bends in patch cords and drops.
- AUA-6C cleaver with automatic knife return: consistent cleaves for hot melt and cold joint fixtures.
- CFS-3 three-port stripper and drop cable stripper: take a drop cable down to 125um bare fibre.
- Fixed length device: sets the right fibre length for cold connectors.
- Shoulder bag of 24 x 18 x 10 cm with waterproof treatment on both sides.
Applications
- FTTH drop installation and field-assembled cold connectors.
- Fibre preparation before fusion splicing.
- Power level checks and fault finding at the ONT or patch panel.
- Starter kit for new fibre technicians and training.
In the box
- Tool bag, rechargeable optical power meter, rechargeable 15mW VFL, AUA-6C fibre cleaver with anti-drop bag, drop cable stripper, CFS-3 three-port stripper, aramid scissors.
- VFL pen case, lanyard, ceramic core and metal pen tip, 2 charging lines, fixed length device, alcohol bottle (empty), dust-free paper, 2 adjusting wrenches.
Note: The VFL emits a laser. Never look into the laser output or a live fibre end. Bare fibre offcuts are sharp, so collect them in a fibre waste container.

A: A tool bag, a rechargeable optical power meter, a rechargeable 15mW VFL, an AUA-6C cleaver with its bag, a drop cable stripper, a CFS-3 three-port stripper, aramid scissors, a fixed length device and accessories: pen case, lanyard, ceramic core, pen tip, 2 charging lines, alcohol bottle, dust-free paper and 2 wrenches.. Q: What does the optical power meter in the kit measure? A: It measures from -70 to +10dBm across 10 test wavelengths, and it also tests RJ45 network cables.. Q: Can I prepare fibre for fusion splicing with this kit? A: Yes. The strippers take the fibre down to 125um and the AUA-6C cleaver has a fixture for hot melt as well as cold joint work. A fusion splicer itself is not included.. Q: How do you make a cold connector with this kit? A: Strip the drop cable, set the fibre in the fixed length device to get the right length, then cleave it with the AUA-6C cleaver before fitting your cold connector.. Q: Are the meter and VFL rechargeable? A: Yes. Both are rechargeable and the kit includes 2 charging lines..
