The 3M brand Angle Splice No Polish Connector 8800-APC/AS terminates 250 micron or 900 micron
single fibers with an SC/APC interface and an angle splice for superior optical return
loss performance.
Required tools for the quick termination are the 3M brand 2565 Fiber Optic Angle Cleaver
Kit, 3M brand No Polish Connector Assembly Tool 8865-AT, and fiber strippers such as
our 3M brand Fiber Stripper 6365-ST.
The 3M brand No Polish Assembly Tool 8865-AT is a two piece tool that is comprised of an
assembly base and a fiber holder.
The angle cleaver precisely forms a 7 degree cleave on the fiber end face and the fiber
holder from the assembly tool maintains the angle orientation during the fiber insertion
into the connector.
Additional materials needed are lint free cloths, 99% reagent grade isopropyl alcohol,
tweezers and a lint free brush.
The 3M brand No Polish Connector Angle Splice Kit 2566, contains all of the tools necessary
