  • Cold splice applicable to optical cables

    Cold splice applicable to optical cables

    Fiber cold splicing refers to using special tools to mechanically connect two optical fibers. These connectors are designed to align and join the fibers together in a precise and secure manner. Whether you're building out an ODF. Fiber splicing means joining two optical fibers (permanently or temporarily) such that light guided in one fiber and reaching the joint (splice) can be transferred into the second fiber with low insertion loss. Imperfect coupling means that some of the light coming from the first fiber gets into. Employing these fibers in lightwave systems requires precise jointing devices such as con­ nectors and splices.
