Lights travel in optical fibers need a continuous, non-disruptive path in order to travel a long distance without big signal loss. But in hundreds of kilometers of fiber link, the light signals need to be amplified, cross-connected, added or dropped, and much other processing. In these connections, two fibers are connected together as a standard practice. This connection can be done with connectors and splicing. BNR Distribution & Transmission provides fiber optic splicing in Corner Brook, NL.
Fiber optic splicing is the practice of joining two fibers together without using connectors. Two types of fiber optic splices exist: fusion splicing and mechanical splicing. Fiber optic splicing may be made during installation or repair.
Splices generally have a lower loss and better mechanical integrity than connectors, while connectors make system configuration much more flexible. So typically, splices are used to connect fiber cables in outdoor applications and connectors terminate fiber cables inside buildings.
