Installation Instructions for BFOC Connectors

Separating the SIMATIC NET PLASTIC FIBER OPTIC Duplex Cord

Insert a sharp knife 20 cm from the end of the cable in the groove between the two cords and split the cords up to the end of the cable.

Caution: The buffer of the cords must not be damaged.

Caution:

Do not split the cords simply by hand, since the fibers can easily be bent beyond the minimum bending radius.
