It describes three main splicing methods - de-matable connectors, mechanical splices, and fusion splices. Fusion splicing welds two fibers together using an electric arc and provides the lowest loss. But what happens when you need to join two cables to extend a network or repair a break? You can't just twist them together. In this guide, we cover the basics of fiber optic splicing, how to perform splicing using two different methods, and finally some best practices to perform good fiber splicing.
