Home / Analysis of Causes of Soot Blowing in Optical Cable Splices
Splicing is required to create a continuous path for light transmission from one fiber to another. Two different methods exist for splicing fibers: Typical splice loss values (the measure of loss in optical power across the splice point) are usually lower for fusion splices (typically less than 0. Intrinsic factors, such as the refractive index of the fiber, are those that are inherent to the fiber itself. This application note discusses the splice loss measurement technique and investigates the extrinsic and intrinsic factors a ecting the splice loss measurements when joining two bare fibre strands.
