Fiber optic splicing costs vary widely depending on project size, location, fiber type, and site conditions. The fibre optic TCO (Total Cost of Ownership) and splice box cost calculation encompass far more than acquisition prices alone – on average, hardware and initial installation account for only 40-50% of total costs over the operational lifespan. I usually bill T&M, but it works out to about $175-250 for setup/teardown per site and $4-7 per fiber for prep in a new tray in an existing case and splicing depending on if it's flooded or dry cable. Add another $50-75 to prep a new case endspan or $100-150 for a new case midspan with overcut on. There are two primary methods of splicing fiber optic cables: fusion splicing and mechanical splicing. In the drop locations, where there may be only one or two splices at each location, the setup time for each location may negate any cost savings from fusion.
