You check now go

yes

Well it is a quick fix. It works till you get new cable. Especially if it is a long cable.

Sorry I need internet until the internet company comes and fixes it.

I have no internet for more than a week google fiber technician never showed, so I’ll probably try this…

possible, if you can find the suitable connector

for outdoor application, there is a need to provide strain relief and provide a protection for the fiber. that us why there is a need for this type of connector with a simple closure

In the middle of difficulty lies opportunity 😂

fibrlok

maybe shopee, lazada would have

for fiber, it always need a special tool

can too

My drop is 650 feet?

@@bradleykifer13 if fiber asw. Put a slack nid on a pole near break pull slack from each end and mechanical ends your done or just replace the drop.

this would have low splice loss than using coupler or adapter. but can as long as the power budget is acceptable

Hi, there are local distributor or maybe lazada

There are parameters or specifications being observed in the telecom industry. And they all passed. It will now boil down to your customer specific requirement

It depends on your customer specific requirement. Some telco would allow this some would not. But it works fine. The mechanical splice connector is a known brand and being used for almost 30 years now. The application is new though as ftth technology is new depending on which country.

I tried it and it does not have significant impact. I have been searching this, and cannot find an answer so far. So i just tried it and it is working fine. Moat of the articles only say that you don’t mate upc and apc connector. But it is still recommended to use the blue adapters for upc connectors and green for apc connectors so as not to create confusion

@@fiberoptikguru3143 thanks for the effort and answering my question,

3m / corning fibrlok

no we dont .... we fix it the right way with a fusion splicer

You need the basic fiber optic preparation tool kit like fiber cleaver, fiber stripper, lint free cloth, snips

Thank you very much for your answer, but from minute 3:48 to minute 4:08, what is the name of that tool?

You will have a hard time splicing the fiber if you will not cut the messenger wire.

Yes, the splice connector does not have the strain relief. The booth of the housing will hold the jacket of the cable. Also, the messenger wire was also rejoined together to provide at least strain relief

Average splice loss of the mechanical splice used is 0.1 dB

Average insertion loss is 0.1 dB for the mechanical splice connector used

@@fiberoptikguru3143 thanks

@@fiberoptikguru3143 what is that of mean o.1db?

@@masbate1371 there are several parameters to check in a optical link. One of this is insertion loss. Every component of an optical link will have corresponding insertion loss. For the mechanical splice connector used, average insertion loss is 0.1 dB

Yes

Mastic tape will prevent the moist

Yes, but check your ISP

It is called 2569 Fibrlok

All the equipments required for splicing machine.. except machine😂and remember that, it has a great loss

Yes

@@hsbofficial211 Indeed, no getting away from that unless you use an expensive kit that fuses the fiber together. For a quick and cheap method this is manageable.

If it is working, maybe you have enough power budget remaining on your optical link that is compensating for the big loss when you connect the upc connector to apc connector. But aside from attenuation, there is another factor that you need to check which is the reflection loss. Normal power meter cannot measure this. If you can share photos or illustrate your connectoons maybe i can provide more input. Also if it working, maybe it is also not optimized since there is fault already on your connections. You can optimize this by mating the same type if connector

Hi, thanks for checking. I am not seller but i heard that Corning boughy already 3M Telecom products. You may check with Corning Philippines or its distributor here in Philippines. I think in Philippines this is being distributed by Digital CCTV. philsecurity.com/?SID=k1167snlb0b8fsqk0pi0fu9dt3

Hi, thanks for commenting. The insertion loss is about less than 0.1 db. Yes, fusion splicing is better than mechanical splice. Mechanical splicing though maybe 30 years ago is not as good as today that is why the misconception is it is only for emergencey and temporary fix. In the video, i used 3M fibrlok as it is known as a good and reliable mechanical splice connector
