Overview
The AFL Fujikura CT16 is an ergonomic fiber cleaver engineered for high-precision fiber preparation in space-constrained environments. Designed to support both single and dual fiber cleaving, this tool is ideal for FTTH applications, small cell sites, FTTx drops, and MDF/IDF terminations.
The CT16 features a flexible design that supports both left and right-handed operation by allowing the user to swap the scrap collector and fiber adapter positions. Built for the rigors of field use, the unit is shock-resistant and capable of withstanding drops up to 30 inches in six different orientations.
