How many splices does your crew perform each month?
A fusion splicer will pay for itself quickly, when more than 50 splices per month are performed.
Fusion Splicing
- Provides the lowest loss
- Offers the least reflectance
- Is considered the strongest and most reliable method of joining fibers
A properly executed splice can exhibit a loss of less than 0.1dB. In contrast, mechanical fiber connectors will typically yield a loss of 0.2dB or higher.
Cost considerations:
- Splice-on connectors cost $6 to $8 each and have less loss
- Mechanical connectors are $12 to $15 each and have more loss
