Before we begin to dive into that question let’s get a brief understanding on what a fusion splicer is. If you are in the fiber optic world you will definitely know what a fusion splicer is and most likely will have used one or will be using one. A fusion splicer is a machine that fuses or welds two different pieces of fiber optic glass cables together to become one with an electric current also known as an arc. Most fusion splicers have an attached shrink oven that the protection sleeve is placed into to complete the process. Some splicers do not have an attached shrink oven and an external separate shrink oven will be needed for the application. As mentioned, fiber optic cable is made of glass and glass, especially how thin optical fiber is, will be very brittle and can very easily break. When this fusion of glass is completed, this is where our friend, the fusion protection sleeve steps in. You may be asking, what is a fusion splice protection sleeve? Well that is a great question...

by www.fiber-mart.com I’m sure you’ve noticed the photo on the landing page of this website.  It’s a photo that is about 15 years old and shows two of our field service employees splicing fibers in the back of one of our vans.  I wasn’t sure about using that photo since I felt there was a chance that people who came upon the page might see that photo and think that the website dealt with field services as opposed to software.   But, the more I see that photo, the more I feel it captures the essence of not only fiber-mart.com, but also the company that developed it, and the companies that use it.   What makes us,  Advance Fiber Optics  (www.fiber-mart.com), unique as a company is that we not only create popular software applications to support fiber optic network management, but we also have field crews around the USA splicing and testing fiber optic networks almost every single day.  fiber-mart.com was initially created to help us manage th...
