Fusion Splicing: The

Simple Welding
Process for
Optic cables
Optic fibre cables have changed the
way we see at our electronics these
days. While the fibre optic cables are
virtually flawless, sometimes it
becomes necessary to break the lines
and rejoin at certain places. We have
heard how a glass once shattered
can’t be fixed back. Well, the optics
fibre cables that are made of glass
materials are an impressive exception
to this fact. The fibre optic cables can
actually be joined at ends using a
special process called Fusion Splicing.
When to use Fusion splicing technique?

Fusion splicers are used to join the ends of two fibre optics. It is
usually done by using an electric arc tip. Modern technologies employ
laser welding techniques too for a more clear fusion splicing
amalgamation. The fusion splicing method is used in following
conditions:

o When a certain part of the fibre cable


breaks or cracks

o When the fibre cable portion creates


undue resistance to the flow of data or
electricity

o When the length of the layout is


supposed to be enhanced to connect
more points
