We unrolled the loose tubes in the middle while holding both ends of the cable, this will relieve some tension to cut the central strength member, breaking the SZ stranding of the loose tubes in the process.
@@Ashphinchtersayswhat Sometimes you can see it on the outer layer. But that depends on the thickness of the outer layer. On some cables its also marked where its retwisted.
@@Ashphinchtersayswhat I see, we use a norwegian brand called Ducatel at work. Here they have a marking that looks like a "bridge" sort of on the rotations. Every brand might not give us that benefit tho :)
why is it that no matter how hard i try to find a video of how to do this on cable that is NOT armored, this is the only video that pops up... so frustrating. Its like the internet pretends all loose tube fiber is armored. I only learned on armored at school... if i look up tools to midspan "unarmored" fiber all that pops up is ARMORED FIBER STRIPPING TOOLS. Why on earth is this so hard to find any information on, i have found one small reddit conversation and thats all!
It depends on the type of cable and the installation environment. Generally, it is necessary for drop installations and fiber transitions with loose tube armored and dielectric cables.
Whats the name of that slitting tool ?
It's a Miller Armored Cable Slitter, it's great for slitting the armor layer on fiber feeder, central tube & stranded loose tube fiber optic cables.
How the hell did you know where the twist came up in the center? It’s key to mid spanning

@@foncs no I mean before you strip the cable. Any indicators on the outside of the jacket?

Miller MK02, thank me later
How to get a connection to home from this midspan
Good question ⁉️
nice
what is the common specification for midspan fiber cable to know it will be used in midspan or not?
It depends on the type of cable and the installation environment. Generally, it is necessary for drop installations and fiber transitions with loose tube armored and dielectric cables.

Hi
Please show a video of splicing this fiber. A 20 inch ring cut? GTFO. Show me.
