As the world becomes more digital so does the need for fiber optics splicing. Most people put little thought to how the fiber optics around and below them. Of course, with a growing need comes literal growth and problems with current fiber optics networks. That is where fiber optics splicing comes in, combining two fibers together. Here are a few things to know about fiber optics splicing to help you understand why it is useful. 2 Types of Fiber Optics Splicing: Mechanical: This type of splice involves lining up 2 cables and holding them together so they can act...

Today, even the tiniest advantages in the speed of information transmission can make a big difference in companies and businesses around the world. Many people are looking for better, more reliable transmission of information and are turning to fiber optics because of it’s speed, strength and dependability. On occasion, fiber optics might become damaged, need replacing, or need extensions done with fiber optics splicing. If you are new to fiber optics, you may be unaware of what fiber optics splicing is, let alone that there are different kinds of fiber optics splicing. Here are the two basic types of...

Advantages of Choosing Fusion Splicing in Fiber Optics Splicing

Posted by on Dec 18, 2019 in Fiber Optics Splicing | 0 comments August 17th, 2021

Splicing is a method in which several optical fiber cables are brought together end to end. Fiber optics splicing can be done in two ways. The first way is fusion splicing, where controlled heat is used to melt both ends of the fiber before welding them together. The second way is mechanical splicing, in which optic fibers are held inside a sleeve using a particular mechanical device. Fusion splicing is a better technique for a couple of reasons: It Offers the Lowest Back Reflection When compared to mechanical splicing, where the fibers are joined temporarily and accurately, fusion splicing...
