Fusion splicing course OP-491 is suitable for installation and splicing engineers and this hands-on course will teach you how to use a splicer, make a telecom fibre joint, a patch panel and a wall mount box. In addition you will learn how to maintain and look after your splicer and cleaver to ensure best results every time. The course is 100% practice based and will give you all the skills you need to start splicing in the fibre industry.
The course covers fibre preparation and splicing and involves practical sessions where you will prepare cables and join them together in an in-line joint and complete a termination patch panel and small wall box. You will complete this by testing the link using a source and meter.
By the end of the course you will be proficient in the following:
- Fibre preparation – prepare fibres and make them ready for splicing using the best methods and tools
- Cable Stripping – how to prepare cables – indoor, aerial and armoured for jointing without damaging the fibres using the best tools and methods
- Fusion Splicing – splice optical fibres quickly and with low losses – how to avoid weak splices
- Repair a broken fibre – how to repair a fibre in an existing joint
- How to maintain a fusion splicer for optimum performance what can you do in the field
- How to splice a 1U patch panel efficiently and neatly – an internal cable is spliced to pigtails
- How to splice a small wall box – with little space to work with you need to take extra care to produce a good result.
- How to splice a multifibre multitube cable into a Node joint – telecom, FTTx and renewable energy use them – take your splicing skills up a notch
