TFOCA Tool Kits
TFOCA
TFOCA Glass Protection Sleeve (GPS-60)
NSN: 6060-01-527-2497 #0731-1187
The GPS-60 sleeves are used to protect the actual glass fibers after the fusion splice is accomplished.
The oven that is attached to the S121M-CUST2 melts the shrinkable tubing that contains
two metal “splints” that give the 900 micron buffered fiber tremendous support. Once the Glass
Protection Sleeves are in place the JPS-400 is placed around the cable area that has been spliced
and the cable is now completely protected and can be spooled back onto the reel.
TFOCA U.S. Marine Corps HQRC
(High Quality Reference Cable) Kit
NSN:TBD #0801-8525
In order to properly test link loss in a cable reel or assembly that has been manufactured or re-connectorized
a Light Source and Power Meter should be used. This equipment should be connected
to the reel under test by utilizing High Quality Reference Cables (HQRCs). KITCO manufactures
these jumpers in strict adherence to Military standards and several kits have been produced to
provide the Warfighter with the proper jumpers to accurately test both the M83526/12 and the
TFOCA (SG) cable reels. The #0801-8525 contains all the proper jumpers and couplings to perform
link loss testing.
fiber optic inspection, cleaning, and test platform kit
NSN: TBD #0831-8245
The KITCO Inspection, Cleaning and Test Platform Kit allows the technician to inspect, clean
and test TFOCA and TFOCA (SG) reels of fiber. This kit will enable the Warfighter to find where
a fiber is broken and determine the length of the fiber run. It contains a full featured, touch-screen
OTDR that also serves as a Power Meter and all the necessary HQJs (High Quality Jumpers) and
HQRCs (High Quality Reference Cables) to interface with the Light Source and Power Meter
mode of the OTDR. HQLCs (High Quality Launch Cables) that eliminate the OTDR’s ‘dead
zone’ are also included. The kit contains an inspection probe with all appropriate tips that will
enable the Warfighter to check the quality of the endface for visual defects and determine the
actual dB loss of each termini’s polish. This kit supports TFOCA and TFOCA (SG) cable reels
and commercial ST, SC, FC and LC fiber runs. KITCO can also customize this kit to support
only TFOCA (SG) multimode applications.
TFOCA Test Platform Consumables Kit
NSN: TBD #0831-9015
The Test Platform Consumables Kit contains all of the expendable items used when cleaning the
TFOCA and TFOCA (SG) connector reels, and will replenish the items contained in the #0831-
8245 Kit.
TFOCA Cleaning & Inspection Kit
NSN: TBD #0701-5433
The 0701-5433 Cleaning & Inspection Kit is designed for M83526/12, TFOCA and the TFOCA
(SG) Plugs and Receptacles. This kit allows the user to inspect the termini endfaces for debris or
damage. A portable handheld video probe microscope is used to inspect termini endfaces without
removing the front insert adapters or disassembling the connector backshell. This saves the technician
hours of disassembly and reassembly of the connector backshell and eliminates the chance of
damaging or breaking the termini. The unit can be operated using battery or AC power.
TFOCA (SG) Optical Loss Test Set Kit
NSN: TBD #0831-8240
The #0831-8240 Optical Loss Test Set (OLTS) Kit is designed for testing the M83526/16, TFOCA
(SG) cable reels for link loss. This kit comes with all the required High Quality Reference Cables
(HQRCs) and an approved stabilized multimode Light Source and Power Meter for testing. The
unit can be operated using battery or AC power.
The tools, tool kits, and test cables pictured and described in this Military Catalog
have all been developed in strict adherence with the relevant military standards
and specifications. A separate, more detailed TFOCA catalog is scheduled to be
published in 2008.
