2 Termination Tool
LCD Screen
Guides the user through the termination process with simple step-by-step prompts and on-screen visuals.
Ensures the field fiber and fiber stub are in proper alignment before camming.
The termination is as simple as Load + Insert fiber + Pass
1. Load connector onto the cradle
2. Insert fiber, cam connector when indicated on display
3. See connector insertion Loss value
After testing, users can choose to save the value and proceed to the next connector, retest the connector
or re-terminate it if they are unhappy with the IL value.
Mobile App
A companion smartphone app lets users create Project Files to organize termination data. Customer
name, Location and User name are all captured. And the app simplifies record keeping by allowing
customization of connector labels that automatically increment.
Connector and cable images on both the app and tool display mirror the connector type (LC, SC or ST),
fiber type (singlemode or multimode) and left/right orientation settings in use for quick visual confirmation.
So while the tool can be used on its own, users may also operate the tool via the app.
Tools connect to the smartphone app via Bluetooth. Each tool has a unique ID number that can also be
programmed with a name to make identification easier. Termination records can be emailed in a .csv file.
Termination data provides valuable analytics:
• Quickly calculate average termination time
- Optimize onsite time with most productive technicians
- Improve bid estimation with more accurate labor estimates
• Document work for T&M billing or contract progress payments
• Enables highly granular cost / profitability analysis - drill down to closet,
rack, enclosure, cable or all the way down to individual connector
