    Fiber Optic Splicing

    Optical Fiber Splicing has two methods: mechanical or fusion. Light passing through joined fibers cannot be scattered or reflected. 1) Mechanical splicing does not require a fusion splicer, joining fibers so light can pass from one to another introducing higher reflection than fusion method. 2) Fusion splicing has longer life than mechanical by fusing the cores with less attenuation, producing transparent, non-reflective, continuous connection enabling low loss light transmission. Field installations use splicing to restore fiber optic cables when buried cable is accidentally severed.
