All fusion splicers have maintenance requirements which should be described in the operating manual. Besides cleaning regularly, they require electrode alignment and occasional replacement. Fujikura has been making the most reliable and hardest working splicers in the industry since the beginning of splicing. can provide verification and/or calibration documents on several fiber optic testers such as OTDRs, Power Meters, and Optical Loss Test Sets manufactured by Fiber Instrument Sales, AFL, EXFO, Anritsu, Viavi, Fluke, Tempo, Greenlee. Effective fiber splicing is a direct result of a well-maintained and clean fusion splicer. A splicer that is well-maintained AND clean will help. Fiber optic splicing is the process of joining two fiber optic cables together. In the world of high-speed telecommunications, the quality of this joint dictates the overall performance of the network. Fusion splicing is the most widely used method of splicing as it provides for the lowest loss and least reflectance, as well as providing the strongest and most reliable joint between two fibers.
