Description
FIBERNET PRATICO – Folding Fiber Optic Workbench for FTTH
The FIBERNET PRATICO fiber optic workbench provides a practical working surface for technicians carrying out fiber splicing, connections and fiber preparation in the field.
FIBERNET designed PRATICO for telecommunications installations where technicians need a stable work surface, easy transport and an organized workspace.
Its folding construction and three height settings allow technicians to adapt the table to different tasks. In addition, PRATICO features a steel frame, a 3 mm ABS work surface and an integrated tray for splice protection sleeves.
FIBERNET PRATICO Applications
PRATICO supports fiber splicing and fiber handling during professional telecommunications work. For example, it provides a dedicated surface for the equipment technicians use on site.
Technicians can use it for:
- FTTH and FTTx network installations.
- Optical fiber splicing with a fusion splicer.
- Fiber preparation and cleaving.
- Work on fiber optic closures and distribution points.
- Maintenance and repair of telecommunications connections.
- Field operations by fiber optic installation crews.
As a result, technicians have an organized surface on which to position and use their essential tools.
Key Benefits of the Fiber Optic Workbench
Three Height Settings for Different Tasks
FIBERNET PRATICO offers three working heights: 65, 77 and 90 cm.
This allows technicians to select the height that best suits the task. Furthermore, the three settings are useful for crews working at different installation locations.
3 mm ABS Work Surface
The tabletop features a 3 mm ABS surface.
ABS is easy to clean. It also provides a practical area for tools and equipment during optical fiber preparation and splicing.
Folding Design for Easier Transport
After completing a job, the technician can fold PRATICO down to a height of just 13.3 cm.
Consequently, the workbench takes up less storage and transport space. The built-in carrying handle also helps technicians move it between work locations.
For users who require wheeled transport, FIBERNET offers an optional trolley kit.
Steel Frame and Metal Corner Protection
The workbench combines a steel frame with metal corner protection.
The steel frame provides a stable working base, while the metal reinforcements protect the corners.
Adjustable feet also help technicians position the table on the working surface.
Organized Splicing Consumables
PRATICO also features an integrated tray for splice protection sleeves.
This enables technicians to keep small consumables in one place instead of leaving them scattered across the tabletop.
How Does PRATICO Help Fiber Optic Technicians?
A well-organized workspace matters during FTTH installations. For instance, a clear tabletop helps technicians position their essential tools.
Technicians commonly use a fusion splicer, fiber cleaver, stripper, cleaning products and splice protection sleeves. Therefore, a dedicated working surface makes it easier to keep this equipment organized.
The FIBERNET PRATICO fiber optic workbench meets this need by offering a portable work surface with three height settings.
