The Fiber Tool and Cleaning Kit from Softing IT Networks is a comprehensive set for professional handling and maintenance of fiber optic cables in the field. It serves as a mobile workshop for technicians who require reliable, precise tools and cleaning materials during the installation, maintenance, or repair of fiber optic connections. The kit is specifically designed for work with standard ferrules in sizes 1.25 mm and 2.5 mm and includes all necessary tools for preparing, cleaning, and inspecting fiber optic cables.

Applications
This tool and cleaning kit is intended for use in fiber optic network infrastructure, particularly in FTTH installations, data centers, and industrial networks. It supports field termination of fiber optic cables, cleaning of connectors, and visual inspection of fiber integrity. The tools are designed for processing cables with 125 µm and 900 µm buffer as well as jacket thicknesses from 2 to 3 mm. The combination of precision tools and cleaning materials enables clean and error-free processing, which is essential for optimal signal transmission.

Functions and Equipment in Detail
The kit includes tweezers for safe handling of small components such as ferrules or fibers. Two CleanMachine cleaning tools, each for 1.25 mm and 2.5 mm ferrules, ensure thorough and uniform cleaning of connectors. The Miller Tri-Stripper enables precise removal of buffer and jacket in the specified thicknesses, while the bundle cable cutter is suitable for cable diameters from 1.6 to 6.0 mm. The Miller Multi Stripper covers the range AWG 22–10 (equivalent to 0.6–2.6 mm) and is suitable for processing various cable types. A Miller Kevlar scissors is used for cutting Kevlar protective layers. Cleaning is performed using Stickler's cleaning fluid in pump spray format (85 g) and 100 wipes, ensuring hygienic and efficient cleaning.

Technology Explained Simply
The tools in the kit are tailored to the specific requirements of fiber optic installation. The CleanMachine cleaning tools use a special cleaning mechanism that cleans the surface of ferrules without causing damage. The Miller strippers are designed for precise removal of protective layers, with the Tri-Stripper optimized for common buffer and jacket thicknesses. The bundle cable cutter enables clean cutting of cable bundles, which is important during fiber optic network installation. The Kevlar scissors are designed for cutting Kevlar protective layers, which serve as tensile reinforcement in many fiber optic cables. Visual inspection is performed using the Cablemaster VFL, a laser light tester, which checks the fiber for breaks or contamination.

Compatibility and Accessories
The kit is compatible with standard fiber optic cables and connectors, particularly for common ferrule sizes of 1.25 mm and 2.5 mm. It can be supplemented with additional fiber optic accessories such as fiber cleavers, field-terminatable connectors (e.g. SC(APC) or LC(APC) for 0.9 mm SM 9/125 µm cables), or stripping tools. Using appropriate tools such as a fiber cleaver or stripping tool can further improve the quality of fiber end preparation. The kit is also compatible with other testing devices such as the fiber optic checker/tester (VFL), which is also available in the product range.

Mounting and Installation
The tools in the kit are designed for field use and require no additional mounting. The tools are stored in a bag that enables mobile and organized storage. The tools are compact and require no additional accessories or tools for operation. Cleaning is performed using the cleaning materials included in the kit, with wipes and cleaning fluid applied directly to the ferrules. Testing with the Cablemaster VFL is performed by simply connecting it to the fiber and visually observing the light.

Operational Advantages
The tool and cleaning kit offers a compact, mobile solution for all necessary steps in fiber optic processing. The precise design of the tools reduces error sources during installation and increases the reliability of connections. The integrated cleaning solution ensures clean connectors, improving signal quality and connection lifespan. Visual inspection with the VFL enables quick fault diagnosis in the field. The bag provides organized storage and portability, making field operations particularly efficient.
