The Fiber (strand) is glued to the connector assembly with heat-cured epoxy, providing a reliable connection with desired losses of less than 0.5 dB per mated pair. This process can be time-consuming because YOU must set or “cure the assembly.” A suitable Curing Oven is essential for consistency with your epoxy connect process. Epoxy removal from the connector assembly is the task at hand.
