Fusion splicing is a process of aligning the fibers from the fiber optic cables and then connecting them together. In this process, the fiber strands are aligned using a fusion splicer that pulls the fiber cores in alignment with the. In September 2019, FOC posted an article explaining the difference between mechanical and fusion splices. Fiber Optic Cable Splicing Explained. Result is a near-seamless / lossless joint. Regardless of the type of fiber network you're deploying, be it for telecom, enterprise data centers, or smart city infrastructure, fusion splicing provides the benefits of. Fiber Stripping: Selecting Precise Tools and Techniques Selecting the appropriate stripper will depend on the fiber coating diameter. This will typically be 250µm for bare fibers and 900µm for coated fibers. Reputable companies like Jonard, Fujikura, and INNO provide multi-hole strippers calibrated. A complete guide to fiber optic fusion splicing from start to finish.
