The primary contributors to measured splice loss are fiber material and design factors that prevent an optimal coupling of the light pulses from one fiber end to another. One of the most overlooked causes of fiber optic network issues is splice failure — and understanding the reasons fiber splices fail after installation can save you thousands of dollars in troubleshooting costs and downtime. These characteristics are difficult to measure experimentally and hence several approximate models have evolved in. Fiber optic splicing is a critical part of building and maintaining high-speed fiber networks.
