Evaluating splice quality
If the spliced fiber is as follows or estimated losses are high, re-do the entire splice.
Bubble
Black line
(Re-do splicing.) (Re-do splicing.)
Bulging
Neck-down
(Re-do splicing.)
(Re-do splicing)
Kink or offset
White line
(Re-do splicing.)
(Re-arc→NG→
Re-do splicing)
After MMF or dissimilar fiber splicing, a line sometimes appears at the
splice point. But it does not affect splice quality, such as splice loss,
tensile strength, and etc.
