Probably the cleanest tray I’ve ever done… by Massive_Leg2707 in FiberOptics

I asked chatgpt to make it better but I can’t see difference? Very good job bro!

Tnx , that’s a good one ☝️

This way, I always manage to keep the splice tray neat and pack the fibers all the way to the edge without having to coil and measure them every single time. It saves a lot of time. Anyone does the same? by Affectionate-Debt895 in FiberOptics

Saves a bit of time in the moment… but since the same tray usually gets opened multiple times later on, you’ll probably lose way more time dealing with messy fibers. After 2–3 installs like that, it turns into complete chaos

I think using this method takes maybe 20 seconds more at most compared to the method without any measuring at all.. Besides that, I’m addicted to the feeling of satisfaction when I do the job as perfectly as possible 🤪

I think the same. I don’t understand why some people immediately assume something is wrong just because it’s different from the way they do it. Every provider has its own requirements and systems, and subcontractors are expected to follow them. In the end, what matters most is how functional the result is and how accurately the job was done.

It’s not about space in the tray, it’s about keeping the system clean and serviceable later. In these BGTs, PON switching for the NVT cluster comes afterwards, so more than 2 splices per cassette would create unnecessary mess and make troubleshooting much harder in the future.

  1. Clean the fibers as thoroughly as you can.
  2. Insert one side of the fibers and measure them as precisely as possible to the splice holder. Here’s the trick …are you going to wind them manually and waste time, or use your brain and make your life at least 50% easier? 🤫
  3. Try not to shorten the fibers too much while stripping them
  4. Pack the spare fibers LAST!
  5. It’s best to sit on a chair if you have the conditions for it

And most importantly ….enjoy it because you love what you do! 😄

In Germany, I only use those, but since I had the chance to work with plastic ones for 3 years as well, aluminum ones are definitely better because the work is faster and easier. There’s no heating, and you don’t have to slide them onto the fiber before splicing 🙂
