What is a fiber optic cutting tool?
An Optical Fiber Cleaver is a tool used in the field of fiber optics to precisely cut optical fibers.
Its primary function is to ensure a clean and accurate cut of the fiber, which is essential for the successful splicing of optical fibers.

How do fiber optic cutting tools work?
In practice, the cleaver is used during the process of splicing two optical fibers together.
Splicing involves aligning and fusing the ends of the fibers to create a continuous optical path.
For this to be effective, the ends of the fibers must be ly aligned and free of any burrs or debris.
A good cleaver ensures that the fiber ends are cut cleanly and at the correct angle, which is critical for achieving low splice loss and maintaining optimal signal integrity.
