Overview
The Corning FAN-BT25-12 Buffer Tube Fan-Out Kit is designed to transition a 12-fiber buffer tube into twelve individual 25-inch lengths of buffered fiber. This conversion process allows technicians to easily perform field-installations of connectors on tight-buffered fiber cables.
This kit is engineered for indoor environments and features snap-together furcation units, which eliminate the need for adhesives or epoxy during installation. The kit includes integrated bend radius protection to maintain signal integrity and provides efficient fiber routing for clean, organized cable management.
