What is fusion splicing?

Fusion splicing is a process used to join two optical fibers end-to-end using heat. The process involves aligning the two fiber ends precisely and then melting or fusing them together in a controlled manner, creating a continuous optical path with minimal signal loss. It is commonly used in telecommunications, data centers, and other applications requiring high-performance fiber optic connections, as it provides a strong, low-loss, and reliable splice.
