Overview

• Fiber Closure Saves Stitching Time
  

  During the actual operation of a fiber optic cable, fiber splicing is typically required to achieve the connection between the fibers. In particular, fiber bonding is the process of combining the ends of the fibers. And only one end of each fiber is needed. There are two main methods of splicing: mechanical splicing and fusion splicing. This article will introduce the two splicing methods and their specific splicing steps. Fiber Closure is typically used with outdoor fiber optic cables to provide splicing space for outdoor fiber optic cables. The fiber splice closure and the internal fiber optic tray will protect the connection between the splice fiber and the outdoor fiber optic cable. Typically, fiber optic splice closures are domed fiber optic closures, and inline closures are more commonly used.

  What is mechanical stitching?

  Mechanical splicing uses an alignment device to hold the two fiber ends in precisely aligned positions. This allows light to pass freely through one fiber to another. In this method, the joints are not permanent. It is still possible to separate the two fibers after the signal transmission. The initial investment in mechanical splicing is lower, but the cost per splicing is higher.

  Four steps of mechanical splicing:

  1. You need to prepare the fiber by peeling off the outer coating, sheath, tube, etc., exposing the bare fiber. If the subsequent transfer fails, you can keep the fiber clean.

  You need to cut the fiber.

  You need to mechanically connect the fibers without heat. Simply attach the fiber end to the inside of the mechanical splice unit and the device will help couple the light between the two fibers.

  4. Need to protect the fiber during optical transmission. Typically, the finished mechanical device has its own joint protection.
