If you’re looking to Sell FiTel S148S SM MM Fiber Fusion Splicer

FiTeL S148S Fiber Fusion Splicer
Fusion splicing is used to physically join together two optical fiber ends; the process may vary, depending on the type of fusion splicer used. The S148S Single-fiber Fusion Splicer uses precision, fixed V-grooves to align the fiber ends and heat from a controllable electric arc to melt the glass and butt the ends together. This results in a strong joint, with very low loss and very low backreflection.

To achieve good splicing results, it is essential to know both the proper use of a fusion splicer and the characteristics of optical fiber. Because not all fibers are identical, they can melt or fuse at different temperatures. Therefore, to minimize splice loss, it is important that the arc power and the duration of the fusion arc be properly adjusted. The S148S fusion splicer features an arc check function to help the user adjust these parameters. Other intrinsic factors that contribute to the increase in splice loss are core diameter mismatch, cladding diameter mismatch, numerical aperture mismatch, core concentricity and noncircularity.

Optical fiber is basically classified as either single-mode or multimode. Single-mode fiber, which includes dispersion-shifted fiber types, will transmit a single-mode of data at wavelengths greater than the cut-off wavelength (1170 nm). Approximately 80% of the light is transmitted within the core, and 20% is transmitted in the surrounding cladding. Therefore, the transmission path is more accurately referred to as the mode field and not as the core. With a core diameter of typically 8 µm and a mode field diameter of approximately 10 µm, single-mode fiber can transmit more data than multimode fiber and with less attenuation.

In multimode fiber, the optical signal is transmitted entirely within the core. These fibers have a core size of 50 µm to 100 µm (50 µm or 62.5 µm, typically) and are commonly used in local area networks (LANs), short distance links are closed circuit television (CCTV).
