Fiber Splicing 101

alright guys the specialist airways's hey today I want to go over just the typical splicing with the fusion splicer so today I have set a little mock twice this is a consent his license and a man of the they will need today fusion splicer stripper I persist hi whole life good-o more lectures and last but not least we will splice slaves protector slugs we've got everything here fusion splicer I'm using today is Fuji kara 12s on the market that you years this it's pretty nice clean simple light way different kinds of you diffuse connects which will get to Italy so first things first we need to set up the fusion splicer to supplies today I have single-mode fiber we have to buffer to to bloom orange each have 12 strands of fiber inside so since we're splicing single-mode we need to make sure that huija kara is set up for single-mode so we're gonna power on so we're already set up I'm gonna go through the motions so we'll go into settings I'm gonna go select splice mode we're gonna go to single-mode since we're so splicing single-mode hit enter check that we're in single mode single mode again there's different sized splice leaves forties sixties so forth and so on today we are using the 60s so we need to make sure that our heater is set up for 60 either mode sixty millimeter and so you can see the different there's forties fifties twenties so forth and so on but today we are using the 60s BAM now we're set up to supply single-mode fiber using sixty millimeter splice leaves the next thing we've got our to buffer tubes we'll need to measure the length each one and so we've got the blue I'm going to dress this around here to get my measurement so so first I want to open this up so we get to the access to the better five front side so I'm going to leave a little bit here I go up one to two inches so what I did used strippers which has more for outside buffer I'll make a little incision and pull apart opens us up to get access to our bear club so now we have our bear claw group we can Dress inside of here to get our measurement for splicing so we're gonna take all 12 around and my target is this 12-pack at the beginning so I'm going to cut in the middle that way allows access for the top and position myself got my mark I'm gonna pull this out I still have my mark here okay so it's our first so the side I'm splicing to it will be in the or the same strippers decision so we've got our 12 fibers inside adhere better fibers blue orange green brown slate white red black yellow violet grows up we'll do the same make more mark this is where I will cut trusty snips I left these off the list of tools needed so No where so also another thing I like to do is to keep the fibers organized and from shuffling around the table I put a little piece of bottle take vegetables stick the particles through nice there so the next thing we need to do is but spice leaves discuss after we splice we need to put these on and he'd above to protect the spot so I usually go in spoon Thanks orange Green Brown five strike number six red train number seven we just feed the fiber throughs rain right aqua strands number basic 12 firework so now we have everything measured out the strippers the cladding off so so usually I go inch-and-a-half what we really want is to strip our measurement from here that we took but it where you can see it so we want to strip the distance between these two holders for your H right so from this side to this usually it's about an inch and a half works good as you can see I removed the cladding sort of hard to see since it's so small but it's there it happens so it's just your buyer glass after we stripped of colored cladding off and all right so we've got air links drips to bear fiber now we can begin squats so like I said before Forrest's is is blue use alcohol wipes what we want to do is clean the bear glass every night now who wants the cleaver persist acquisition please I'm going to set this to 16-millimeter secure it we've just pushed one step down brings the riser buddy to clay this pulls the cut ends into this tray here which we have a bunch of sorts of wires this right the fusion splicer one side and now we're going to come around to the other side there was quite some two blue buzzer take out the blue strain why the glass so now we all ready to splice we've got both sides inserted into fusion splicer not too much [Music] it set so you can see it hearts cleanse off dust checks the lines fuses now I was given an estimated lives this is a very good splice we have its downs we have zero loss which that's not really true because once we got to test it we're gonna have some kind of loss but it's a very good splice so open our heater this is our meter for this place each Street which will protect the splice farmer Wow it does a little strength test to make sure we've got good supplies so now this is gonna heat the heat shrink up and tighten around the cable to make a secure slice to our arms so I went into the stage they're glass take our wands and started such he's ready to go who supplies first I'm gonna pull this one out so you so now this is a completed splice it's tight on the valves protected source can't bend or break so we've got our spare fiber this will cleave to the correct length place it inside so even the splice fusion splicer we need to play insert so this is what it looks like inside close this was sent Congress to them have my fibers are past the electrode so I need to pull him back his flight pulled back a little bit alright let's see so now it's going so my fibers were past the electrode so the motor was overrun when name during alignment so I just moved them back a little bit so now we've got a little different loss still good you still anything up to 0.03 all that passage so that's what standard says so this is a point zero one we're still good completed supplies or a Treecko and open our hater so as you can see these peach drinks before they're heated up in the heater they just slide up and down the barroom once we heat them up whistling over featuring as they shrink up around the farmer the better farmer and then that protects our supply so that adds the coating protective coating to the splice other purpose that holds that holes allows us to secure the splice inside Detroit as you see here these hold you see the first drain I just placed inside so it holds it secure if you move the tray doesn't know its place nice and secure second strand orange is now heated up see this no longer slides up and down and our splices in the middle here of the hate ring it would fit nicely inside the secure housing of the supply stray first start some Gunners again thanks for watching my video we're just demonstration slicin I don't want to do all 12 before you then it's just repeat steps 1 over and over again so if you have any questions please comment and again please serve my videos and like my things now
