The ASW-02 Splicing Workstation can be used with a splicer and cleaver in aerial or terrestrial applications. The work tray provides a stable work surface and secure mounting of the fusion splicer and cleaver to prevent accidental drops. The ASW-02 consists of a tray, the cleaver mount arm, the pole mount bracket, and a set of dual safety straps used to snap onto the strand, secure around the pole or hoist the tray and splicer up to the aerial cable (while the clamping system is adjusted).
