Analysis of the Reasons for Poor Splicing of Pigtails
Get the wrong connector type, the wrong polish, or skip proper fusion splicing technique—and you're looking at elevated signal loss, increased back reflection, and a field termination that fails certification. Are you looking for ways to improve the performance of your fiber optic splices? If so, you've come to the right place. This can be especially helpful for identifying bad splices when using splice-on pigtails since they are near the end of the link. Primarily used for Tier 1 certification and acceptance testing and the most accurate tool for measuring loss, a light source and power meter (LSPM) or Optical Loss Test.
