Feature

Photon Kinetics FK12 Precision Angled Fiber Cleaver

The FK12 Angled Fiber Cleaver set the standard for low reflectance fiber termination of better than -60 dB. Fast and repeatable cleaving of fiber ends at user-selectable cleave angles (0º to 15º) make it possible for installers to reduce the reflectance of mechanical splices and other fiber terminations without the use of index matching gels. The FK12 is the tool of choice where quick fiber termination and low return loss are required at minimum cost.

Features and Benefits:
• Tension First — eliminates the need for polishing and index matching gels
• Versatile — cleaves a wide range of fiber types and sizes
• Low reflectance terminations — enables optimal performance of fiber optic
components and systems
• Clean — no contamination of the fiber during cleaving
• Easy-to-use — fast terminations reduce installation or pigtailing costs

The fiber is secured in the clamps and put under controlled tension. If using the FK12 the torsion required to achieve the desired cleave angle is set. Tension is then applied and the ultrasonic vibrating diamond blade is moved toward the fiber. The result, depending on the cleaver used, is a clean, flat or angled fiber that is ready for splicing or testing.
