Overview
The Corning TKT-NPCP-CI01 Fiber Termination Kit is a professional-grade solution designed for the efficient installation of NPC+ field-installable connectors. This kit is engineered to support the termination of 250µm or 900µm tight buffer and semi-tight buffer fibers, providing a reliable method for field deployments without the need for traditional epoxy or polishing processes.
The kit features a high-precision CI-01 flat cleaver capable of up to 50,000 cleaves, ensuring consistent performance for high-volume fiber network installations. Designed for ease of use in diverse field environments, the included tools and accessories enable rapid termination, typically in under a minute, while maintaining mechanical integrity through a specialized rear buffer clamp design that provides superior twist and transmission with applied load (TWAL) performance.
