Fiber Optic Cable Splicing
MarComTech is one of the few contractors in Indianapolis and Central Indiana to offer affordable fusion and mechanical splicing. We utilize the latest technologies in both fusion fiber optic cable splicing and mechanical fiber optic cable splicing.
We provide emergency field splicing and restoration services on damaged fiber optic cable installations. Before you decide upon your splicing decision, it's important to know the difference between mechanical fiber splicing and fusion fiber splicing.
Mechanical Splicing
Mechanical splicing is simply aligning fiber by hand and is designed to be held in place by a self-contained assembly. The two fibers are not permanently joined, just precisely held together enabling light to pass from one fiber into the other through a specialized gel. (Typical loss: 0.3 dB)
Fusion Splicing
In fusion splicing, a machine is used to precisely align the two fiber ends together, then the fiber optical ends are “fused” or “welded” together using heat or electric arc. This produces a continuous connection between the fibers enabling very low loss light transmission. (Typical loss: 0.1 dB)
The performance of each splicing method is as follows: mechanical fiber splicing generally has a higher loss and greater reflectance than fusion splices because the mechanically spliced fiber is crimped in order to hold the fibers in place. Therefore fiber retention also know as pull-out strength is weakened.
The advantages of fusion fiber splicing are primarily lower loss and better reflectance performance. Fusion splicing is mainly used with single mode and multimode fibers when OM speed performance is important.
