Paper Abstract
The most common method of splicing low loss optical fibers is fusion splicing. To those who actually do the splicing, this technique is difficult at best. The GTE elastomeric splice is intended as an alternate solution to eliminate the difficulties encountered in field splicing. Aside from cable preparation, a splice can be completed in less than three minutes. Initial production runs show losses of 0.12 dB max and an average of 0.09 dB.
