Home / How to connect two optical fibers in an optical cable

Fiber optic splicing is often the preferred way to connect two fiber optic cables because it has lower light loss (attenuation) and back reflection than connectorization. Fusion splicing and mechanical splicing are the two most common methods of fiber optic splicing. This involves aligning the two fiber ends and then fusing them together using heat or a specialized tool.
