Greetings, I'm looking for recommendations for a complete crimp fibet splice kit. Something that as all the necessary tools to do the job light meter included would be a plus. TIA

We've been using the Corning Unicam kit for years. Of course, now we just try to go with pre-made fiber if we can.

I did a job with thousands of fibre connections. We used Corning Unicam. It was excellent.

We also use the Corning Unicam. Have some techs that hate them, but I think that is because they are not patient enough to follow all of the steps properly. I've never had an issue with them.
You can also get splice on connectors that work with your fusion splicer. If you want something quick and reliable, Unicam is the way to go.

Thank you all for the suggestion. I should have mentioned this is for repair work on external fiber all on poles and bucket truck only access. Thanks again
