Optical Fiber Fusion Splicing

Optical fiber connection to the finale?

An optical fiber joint is the joint of two optical fibers in the dissolution of marriage. This is a temporary mechanical connection as well as a comparison to a fixed, low loss, high energy. Central role in the fusion of optical fiber optical networks.

Ideal Fusion Splicing Process

The aim is to reduce the insertion loss of even a pair of mechanical energy, and long-term reliability, which is similar to the fiber itself.

The standard method is rapid, inexpensive, and does not require any expensive equipment should be. Indeed, the application process and requirements needed to turn the trade. For example, an underwater telecommunications, long-term reliability is the main target to fusion.

Benefit

Each fiber optic connectors and mechanical splicings other fibers, such as in other ways. Than these two, fusion splicing method has many advantages, such as described below.

1. Very compact

2. Low insertion loss

3. Low back reflection (optical return loss ORL)

And 4. High mechanical strength

5. Permanent

6. It takes a very high temperature changes

7. To prevent dust and other contaminants in the optical path. Read More
