How long should the fiber optic cable be stripped when connecting to the terminal box
Measure the buffer strip length and strip the buffer off at about 1-centimeter segments (1 centimeter at a time) to keep the fiber from bending or breaking. Stripping and preparing fibre optic cables for termination is a critical step in the installation and maintenance of fibre optic networks. After exposing fibers, the fibers must be stripped of buffer coatings for splicing or termination. Allow plenty of time to complete the exercises without interruption, although this lesson can be broken into segments for each cable type.
