Introduction to the Fiber Extractor
A fiber extractor helps you to replace LC fibers, pluggable optical modules, and unshielded network cables.
Structure
Figure 7-53 shows the structure of the fiber extractor.
A fiber extractor consists of the following parts:
- Duckbill end: It helps the fiber extractor enter the board and clamp the optical module when the fiber extractor is used to remove an optical module from a board.
- L-shaped hook: It hooks the security pin of an optical module when the fiber extractor is used to remove an optical module. After the optical module is removed, it holds the optical module so that the optical module will not drop down.
- Limiting groove: It limits the insertion depth of the fiber extractor to prevent damage to the optical module when the fiber extractor is used to remove an optical module.
- Fixing groove: It is used to fix the connector of the optical fiber to prevent the optical fiber from swinging when the fiber extractor is used to remove an optical fiber.
- Spring: It provides the elastic force to enable the fiber extractor to automatically open.
- Handle: Users need to hold the handles when using the fiber extractor.
Applicable Objects of the Fiber Extractor
The fiber extractor is used to replace LC optical fibers, pluggable optical modules, and unshielded network cables, as shown in Figure 7-54.
The fiber extractor cannot be used to replace shielded network cables.
