Zusammenfassung:A fiber setting fixture (20) for optical fiber mass splicing is described. The fiber setting fixture (20) includes a fiber alignment block (30). A plurality of fiber grooves (32) is defined in the fiber alignment block (30). A fiber clamp mount (38) is movable relative to the fiber alignment block (30) along at least one axis. A fiber clamp (50) is removably securable to the fiber clamp mount (38). The fiber clamp (50) includes a clamp body (52) and at least one groove (54) defined in the clamp body (52). The at least one groove (54) defined in the clamp body (52) maintains a fiber pitch equal to the plurality of fiber grooves (32) in the fiber alignment block (30).
