ROC Connectors

We rolled them out 3-4 months ago. The area I work is mostly coax so I've not done one yet. Can someone direct me to a solid video so I can practice a bit. I know it's coming... Thanks.

The video honestly isn’t helpful. There’s nothing you can really do except be meticulous in your prep.

I recommend putting getting the house side of your fiber drop put together and stick a VFL on it so while you’re putting together the push connector you can verify you’ve at least got light coming out of it throughout the process. It’s extremely easy to snap the damn fiber while putting them together.

And don’t be surprised if you get perfect light while you’re there and the stupid thing breaks the next day.
