Fiber optic splicing in Boston, MA involves creating a permanent joint for two or more fibers. This can be done either by doing fiber cable fusion splicing or mechanical splicing, but both provide lower insert loss as compared to using only fiber optic connectors. The fiber optic cables in many network designs are being spliced to permit transmission over longer distances. They pave the way for higher data rates to be transmitted with significantly less amounts of loss and a lesser degree of interference than ordinary wire cables.
The design of a fiber optic network mainly depends on what the network is intended for. There are certain applications that have cable runs requiring only one cable. But in a larger one the fiber optics are spliced, creating a joint that improves the transmission. This terminates single mode fibers by splicing pre-terminated pigtails onto each other. There are also network designs in which splicing is done to make the mixing of several types of fiber cables for specific applications possible. Depending on the requirements of your application, the expert crew of ElecCom will advise you in fiber cable fusion splicing or mechanical splicing.
