Fiber optic splicing full FOSC build start to finish

[@edwardzarobinski2074]

The flat drop stripper has a notch on the side to show where the blades begin. Great videos!

[@vasilybulochkin4622]

man I never thought you can splice 12 fibers at once thats so cool

[@fibersplicegod]

Hey thanks for watching and commenting I appreciate it. Yea with the ribbon splice machines we can set it to any amount of fiber we want up to 12 it defiantly speeds the splicing side of things up haha

[@justthisguy]

You should try a little stitch unpicker tool for the Kevlar wrapping around the elements. It'll change your life 👍

[@jamiepatterson1214]

Nice work in a short amount of time.

[@fibersplicegod]

Thank you I appreciate your views and comments more videos coming out soon

[@mtvtravel9126]

beautiful

[@alfredotaylor4904]

Good work !!

[@fibersplicegod]

Thank you I appreciate the comments and likes thanks for watching 🙌

[@briceperdue7587]

Hell yeah I gotta get my trailer on. Tent isn't so bad all the time tho LOL

[@fibersplicegod]

Yea trailer is nice but I still do a tent set up now and then when it’s a tight work location 😂

[@joaopedroalbernaz]

Brice, you here, love your videos too. You guys rock

[@mattmcguire348]

What tent are you using?

[@MrNoobed]

41:56 maybe you didnt want to reach for it, but i always would go for a piece of electric tape to clean up fibers that refused to fall in the bin. Im not sure if i like those tyco cases. I did way more plp domes, but i could see how the storage and all the heat shrinks at top makes for a really clean tray.

[@zivh5237]

hi, do you leave slack of cable in the aluminum tray or you just splice straight from the entrance to the clouser?

[@fibersplicegod]

If it’s loose tube cable we go straight to tray. If it’s ribbon cable we do slack loop in basket then run up to tray with transport tube. Thanks for watching and commenting I appreciate it

[@MrNoobed]

I started putting field cables in their own tray, even if they're ribbon. I'd cut the hard tubing about 10" into the tray and use soft transport tubing to go into the tray. Like a 24f and 48f would each get their own tray, overall size permitting. Never bother taking them to the transport tray, bring the CO to them from the transport tray. Plp makes a breakout kit for >144 fiber cables too so you can organize even those large cables into trays without hitting the transport tray. Only supposed to fit those in the 9" case though.

[@white.rabbit.x]

Thank you for this great video, interesting to see how advanced tech this stuff and tools are! I've one question, why don't you make another ring cut where you mark the coating at 2:50? Could imagine this makes removing the outer coating easier as it automatically stops there. Guess it would also result in a cleaner ending and you wouldn't have to tape them back together again?

[@alldickerdup]

Whippin it up!

[@fibersplicegod]

Let me watch let em watch😂😂

[@ToddChampion-iw3zm]

I’ve been building fiber since 1998, and am just now getting into splicing. I haven’t seen prints that easy to read since I did Hurricane Katrina for Bell South. The prints my customer gives me currently are full of errors and very vague. They literally told me I needed the splice docs to read the prints. So I said “give me the splice docs” and they said “we don’t get them until the construction is nearly done”. So annoying

[@fibersplicegod]

nice thanks for watching and subscribing i really appreciate it. yes prints are alot better these days but still run into alot of issues with counts and design but thats just standard issue in this line of work haha

[@ciscoarellano9108]

When you ribonized the fiber that’s for saving time when you spliced?

[@fibersplicegod]

Yes for mass fusions splicing instead of splicing everything as single fibers. Thanks for watching and subscribing I appreciate new video releasing tomorrow

[@Jdub-tv3ww]

Very informative, think you forgot the butt plugs. You have a video covering the bonding and metal strength members? That was struggle bus for me.

[@fibersplicegod]

Haha yes I sure did I was waiting for someone to notice and comment 😂 I put a short clip in at the end of the video showing that I put the plugs in haha nice catch tho great eye for attention to detail 🙌 as for metal strength members we only secure them with the strength member brackets and then just bond clamp the metal sheathing in the cable this will ground out the whole cable so you do not have to ground the strength members out. I have a Live fosc I am entering a 288f ribbon with metal strength members today I will make a video on it for you

[@Jdub-tv3ww]

@@fibersplicegod that would be great, would be cool to see it up close. I only show up when stuff gets cut, so far that part of the cable prep process had been most frustrating, I know I was making it more difficult than it should be.

[@brohardin]

Explain what your doing, cable secure. How is it?

[@joshyapplecider]

This is an ignorant question but why would you need to add grounding for fiber optics?

[@fibersplicegod]

No worries no questions are dumb when it comes to Fiber if you are not asking questions then you are not learning. The reason we ground these cables is because they have a metal armour coding on the inside so we need to ground them out to ensure there is no unwanted power serges running through the cable via fallen power lines onto the telecom strand. Thanks for watching and subscribing I really appreciate it

[@russhampton6258]

Also for locating purposes 👍👍

[@AllanS69]

When you marked the 5ft at the beginning and of the video, did you do that because of the size of closure you were working in or because it was a 48 loose tube?

[@fibersplicegod]

Great question I did it because for any of the commscope foscs when it comes to loose tube cable I only open 5ft because that’s all that is needed to get to tray with one loop in the tray for slack to allow for a splice. If it’s ribbon cable and has to run through the basket then I open up 8ft. Thanks for watching and subscribing I really appreciate it

[@Whoflungpouu]

How long did it take for you to learn this job

[@jimdask]

Man thats a uni class in 1 hour!! Thanks! I suppose you ribonize them so it is faster for splicing?

[@fibersplicegod]

Haha yea have a lot of great info in my videos that you won’t find in a uni class. Yes ribbonize bigger cables to push count a lot faster thanks for watching and commenting I appreciate it

[@novagodinasaprijateljima3257]

I do not like those enclosure they are not very practical, right ? :D Anyway, good job mate. Im very proud when somone filming our job, whish you all the best... Keep it up, we are Following and suporting ! :)

[@fibersplicegod]

Thanks for watching and subscribing I really appreciate it. 🙌 new video dropping in the morning for the build series lots more coming

[@dustinmcculler4019]

You have like a dollar amount a customer would pay for a quick job like that?

[@ToddChampion-iw3zm]

I know some people that would get $16-24 usd per burn and $150ish for the enclosure. 20 burns so say $500-700 in the markets I am in. But that’s with your own company, your tools, your insurance, etc. Figure a third of that if you can find an employer that will pay units. What kills people is the nighttime emergency callouts, the impossible deadlines, getting into really messy and badly documented existing enclosures That’s the real world. Many people won’t want the pressure for long, no matter how much money. Some love it.

[@dustinmcculler4019]

@ one more question. Where does someone go to start bidding on jobs in the telecom field?

[@Monyornothin]

I can show you a faster way to remove aramid fibers. Grab the bunch with your whole hand and slide it all the way up towards where you opened the cable to.. now you have loose slack there to cut then slide the bunch back and off the end of the cable. 👍

[@Monyornothin]

Doesn't work on mid span access as well until you cut the aramid fibers at the middle then you can slide them back on each side, cut again then work off the material carefully .

[@joaopedroalbernaz]

What you mean by dead fibers?

[@fibersplicegod]

Dead count within the cable so this cable was a 48 fiber cable but only 20 fibers are being used out of the 48 that are within the cable and they are not assigned to any count within the network so they are called dead count.

[@joaopedroalbernaz]

​@fibersplicegod oh ok, I got it now, not a splicer myself, but I really enjoy and appreciate those that do work on it. Thanks man, been learning a lot from your videos.

[@jamiepatterson1214]

​. The unused fibers are also know as dark fibers because no light will be put on them.

[@user-lf7en6rf8m]

God, don’t get mad at me but you look like Aaron rogers younger brother, or could definitely pass for him. Ok ok back to splicing 😂

[@fibersplicegod]

😂😂 too funny thanks for watching and commenting I appreciate it

[@user-lf7en6rf8m]

Yo G, I found a video that showed the monthly tutorial, that you pay/ subscribe. Bro I’m totally interested, please send link

[@johnhouchins3156]

No safety glasses. You're taking a big risk with glass smaller than the diameter of a hair for someone else's profit. Those glasses are worth the discomfort.

[@r3ckl3ss66]

Who is using flooded fiber? It’s not 1990

[@MrNoobed]

Very common still on the flat fiber.
