Zusammenfassung:A method and apparatus for stripping an outer jacket from a fiber optic cable is disclosed. The end of a fiber optic cable (390) is inserted between an upper cutting surface (310) and a lower cutting surface (320) in the fiber optic stripping tool. The fiber optic cable is engaged by the upper cutting surface substantially along a first half of the circumference of the outer jacket and the lower cutting surface substantially along the second half of the circumference of the outer jacket. The cutting surfaces cut through the circumference of the outer jacket. The cutting surfaces are disengaged from the jacket and the cut portion of the jacket is removed from the fiber optic cable.
