Fusion splicing, which melts the glass of fiber by heat and joins them together permanently, is the one of the splicing methods which can obtain both low splice loss and long-term joint durability. Flame, filament, CO2 laser and arc discharging are popular heat source technologies. Abstract: Splice loss of 4-core fiber using 2-electrode fusion splicer by automatic rotational alignment with duration time of 150 sec is reduced to 0. With multiple light-carrying cores embedded within a single fibre, MCF can multiply network bandwidth without expanding physical infrastructure. However, realising its potential depends on one critical process, which is achieving ultra-low-loss fusion splices that maintain performance and. The FITEL S185PMROF is the only commercially available fusion splicer featuring 3SAE's.
