Standard Kit Contents

1 · Cable Jacket Access
	Round cable jacket stripper Makes longitudinal, ring and spiral cuts to remove jackets from round cables 4.5–29 mm, for mid-span access or end stripping without nicking the fibers. On request: 19–40 mm model.
	Hook-blade cable sheath knife Guarded hook blade slits and removes tough, irregular and oversized cable sheaths; the handguard limits blade depth and protects the cable core.
2 · Buffer Tube & Loose Tube Access
	Slit & ring buffer tube tool Slits and rings buffer tubes 0–3.2 mm at closures and splice points, with adjustable blade depth. On request: 3.2–5.6 mm and 4.8–7.9 mm models.
	Mid span loose tube slitter Dual opposing blades slit both sides of the central loose tube 1.5–3.3 mm (four guide openings) for mid-span access without a ring cut. On request: 4.5–11 mm model.
3 · Fiber Stripping
	Three-hole fiber optic stripper Three factory-set notches strip the 2–3 mm jacket, 900 µm tight buffer and 250 µm coating to expose the 125 µm glass fiber; spring-loaded, no adjustment. On request: stainless-steel version.
	Fiber optic drop cable slitter Opens 2.0×3.0 mm flat drop cable with steel or FRP strength members; built-in length stop gives clean fiber access. On request: 2.1×1.6 mm model.
4 · Cleaving
	HS-30V high precision fiber cleaver 16-position blade, 48,000 cleaves; single-action (one-step) operation — closing the lid clamps, scores and cleaves the fiber, and the slide rail returns automatically when opened. Accepts 0.25 mm bare fiber, 0.9/3.0 mm round cord and 2.0×3.0 mm flat drop. For field-installable connectors and fusion splicing; typical cleave angle 0.5° with a new blade, 0.5–1.0° average over blade life. On request: models for field-installable connectors or long-haul trunk.
5 · Cutting & Gripping
	High leverage diagonal cutting pliers High-leverage jaws cut steel messenger wire, FRP strength members and heavy cable ties.
	Long nose pliers, serrated Serrated jaws grip hardware and pull strength members; spring-loaded return.
	Kevlar® cutting shears Cuts aramid (Kevlar®) yarn, tape and cable ties before splicing; not for steel wire.
6 · End-Face Cleaning
	SC one-click cleaner For 2.5 mm ferrule SC/ST/FC connectors; 800 cleanings per pen.
	LC one-click cleaner For 1.25 mm ferrule LC/MU connectors; 800 cleanings per pen.
	Connector cleaning cassette Lint-free wipe tape for SC/LC/ST/FC end faces; 550 cleanings.
	Fiber cleaning solvent dispenser Sealed 60 ml dispenser for fiber cleaning solvent, for wet-to-dry cleaning. On request: 150 ml / 250 ml.
	Lint-free fiber wipes Lint-free wipes, 95×95 mm, 400 pcs; use with cleaning solvent for end-face and field cleaning.
7 · Testing & Fault Location
	Optical power meter KPM-35 850/980/1300/1310/1490/1550/1625 nm, −70 to +6 dBm, SC adapter; verifies power on multimode and single-mode links.
	Visual fault locator 650 nm, 10 mW red laser with universal 2.5 mm adapter; traces macrobends and breaks, and verifies continuity. On request: 15/20/30/50/60/70/80/100 mW.
8 · Illumination & Storage
	LED flashlight with zoom lens Zoomable beam, IPX5 splash-resistant; lights closures, pedestals, cabinets and racks.
	Rugged 32-pocket tool backpack 600D clamshell technician backpack with 32 pockets and tool loops and a rigid molded base; 43×36×17 cm.

Note: actual cleave angle and blade service life vary with operating conditions and operator technique.

Upgrades & On-Request Configuration

Cable-specific strippers	Add outdoor/indoor cable strippers and thermal strippers to match the cable construction.
Field test instruments	Add a live fiber identifier, OTDR, stabilized light source and end-face inspection probe for the field test task.
Cleaning consumables	Add the MPO one-click cleaner, plus extra quantities of one-click cleaners, cassettes, wipes.
Splice & installation consumables	Configure splice protection sleeves, splice trays, cable ties and other installation consumables as required.
Other purpose-built kits	For a narrower task we also offer a field-installable connector (FTTH drop) kit, a comprehensive fiber test kit and a fiber cleaning kit — select by application.

Typical Applications

• FTTH drop and distribution termination, including flat drop and tight-buffered fibers.
• Outside-plant cable preparation and maintenance at splice closures and cabinets.
• Aerial, underground and direct-buried cable access, including strength-member cutting.
• Enterprise, SME and compact equipment-room fiber work.
• Boundary: for a single-task FTTH drop kit see XHT-T05; for end-face inspection, identification and OTDR see the test-instrument range.

FAQ

Q1. T05 or T06? T05 is a task-specific FTTH drop kit; T06 is the full-day technician platform with a wider tool set and a clamshell backpack.

Q2. Does the kit include a fusion splicer? No — it prepares the fiber for field-installable connectors and fusion splicing and is used alongside a splicer; splicers are listed under XHT-T04.

Q3. Are splice consumables included? The kit includes cleaning items; splice protection sleeves, splice trays and cable ties are configured as required.

Q4. Can tools be changed? Yes — the cleaver, strippers and power meter can be substituted or upgraded within our standard ranges; other capacity ranges are available on request.

Ordering & Service

• Part number: XHT-T06 (standard, 19-piece, 600D clamshell backpack); specify tool upgrades or on-request items on the order.
• MOQ 1; reference lead time about 5 days; response within 24 h.
• Each kit is checked against the contents list before packing.

Focus note: To configure the correct field kit, tell us the cable construction, the connector interfaces and whether PON activation is required. We match the preparation, cleaning and test tools to the job and will not recommend more tooling than the application requires.
