Black Box Fan-Out Kits are specifically designed to enable you to terminate 6- and 12-fiber loose-tube cables. Loose-tube distribution cable protects each strand of fiber in its own buffer sheath. Although the buffers are ideal for protecting each strand of fiber in multifiber cables, they're too narrow to terminate with standard fiber optic connectors.
The Fan-Out Kit solves that problem. Just strip the buffer sheath off the cable and thread each strand through the fan-out assembly. You don't need any more space than you would for any other cable termination or any additional hardware. And because the fan-out assembly snaps together, you don't even need epoxy!
The kit is intended to divide one 6-fiber loose-tube cable into 6 separate color fiber wires, without using epoxy.
