AFL TJ-03 Temporary Joining Tool

The TJ-03 and TJ-24 from AFL provide a temporary fiber splice for fiber and cable connections to test equipment such as OTDRs. The TJ-03 uses a precision ceramic V-groove to align up to 12 fibers simultaneously and the TJ-24 aligns up to 24 fibers. The fibers are prepared for joining by using standard mass fusion fiber preparation tools (fiber holders, hot jacket stripper, and cleaver.) Using the TJ-03 or TJ-24 in conjunction with an OTDR equipped with an optical switch provides rapid one button optical tests of 12 or 24 fibers.
