| Fibre diameter | 900 µm |
The FF-Halter-900 from Softing IT Networks is a fiber holder, specifically designed for use with the FF Breaker Mini60 and splicing devices. It serves as a replacement or exchange holder for fibers with a diameter of 900 µm and enables precise guidance and positioning of the fiber during the breaking or splicing process. The use of an appropriate fiber holder is crucial for the quality of fiber processing, as it stabilizes the fiber during mechanical processing and protects it from damage.
Fiber holder
The holder is supplied as a single unit, with the source indicating a pair (two pieces). This means that two identical holders are delivered, each designed for one fiber. The construction is tailored for use with the FF Breaker Mini60 and compatible splicing devices, ensuring secure and reproducible fiber processing. The fiber is inserted into the holder, where the guide rails support exact positioning.
Functions and equipment in detail
The holder is designed for fibers with a diameter of 900 µm, which corresponds to a standard diameter for fiber cables in telecommunications and networking technology. The precise fit ensures that the fiber is not laterally displaced or deformed during breaking or splicing. This is particularly important to achieve a clean and smooth fiber end surface, which is necessary for high transmission quality. The material selection and design are optimized to absorb mechanical stress during the processing procedure.
Technology explained simply
A fiber holder like the FF-Halter-900 is required to fix the fiber during breaking or splicing. The fiber is inserted into the holder, which holds it in the correct position. During breaking, the fiber is snapped at a defined point, with the holder ensuring that the break edge is clean and parallel. In splicing devices, the holder serves for precise alignment of the fiber ends to ensure optimal optical connection. The 900-µm dimension is a standard in fiber cable technology, especially for single-mode and multimode fibers used in networks and data transmission systems.
Compatibility and accessories
The holder is specifically developed for the FF Breaker Mini60 and compatible splicing devices from Softing IT Networks. Use with other devices is not explicitly confirmed, so compatibility with other brands or models is not guaranteed. The delivery includes only the described fiber holder, 1 pair (two pieces).
Mounting and installation
Mounting is done by simply inserting the fiber holder into the respective device. The fiber is placed into the holder, where the guide rails support correct positioning. No additional tools or mounting aids are required. Handling is performed directly at the device, with the fiber guided through the holder before starting the breaking or splicing process.
Advantages in operation
Using the FF-Halter-900 ensures high precision in fiber processing. The exact guidance of the fiber reduces the risk of errors such as uneven break edges or fiber deformation. This leads to improved splice connection quality and thus higher signal transmission performance. The replaceability of the holder enables easy maintenance and repair, increasing the operational readiness of the devices. The delivery as a pair (two pieces) allows use in different workflows or provides replacement readiness for a defective holder.
