Ergonomic One-Handed Fiber Tool

The Cable Prep FOC-100 is a hand tool built for inserting and removing fiber connectors in patch-panel enclosures. Its spring-loaded, tapered jaws reach deep ports while an ergonomic body fits large and small hands for comfortable one-handed use. The design prevents pinching during operation. Technicians working in dense racks will appreciate the secure grip and precise control.

Handles SC LC MU MTRJ Connectors

This tool works with SC, SC2, MU, LC and MTRJ connector types, covering common single-fiber and duplex interfaces found in enterprise and data-centre patching. A contoured notch on one tip protects the LC latch during insertion, ensuring positive seating without damage. The straight tip depresses the latch for clean removal. It does not support multi-fiber MPO or MTP connectors.

Lightweight Plastic Body With Flashlight

The tool body is made from HAWA plastic that shields connectors while you work. A patented removable flashlight clips onto the tool to illuminate ports and tips in low-light enclosures, powered by two field-replaceable AAA batteries. At .42 weight units the tool stays light during extended use. No metal jaws contact the ferrules, reducing contamination risk.

Questions about this item

Will the FOC-100 reach LC connectors at the back of my existing patch panel?

The long, tapered, spring-loaded jaws are designed to reach the back of patch-panel enclosures and the contoured notch on one tip prevents the LC latch from being depressed during insertion.

How can I verify the integrated flashlight works after I install the batteries?

Insert two standard AAA batteries; the patented removable flashlight should illuminate individual ports, connectors and the tool tips, confirming operation in low-light conditions.

Does the FOC-100 come with the AAA batteries for the flashlight or must I buy them separately?

The tool includes a removable flashlight that uses two standard AAA batteries; the batteries are not included and must be purchased separately.
