As an optics engineer on an ultrahigh power laser system, I would be frankly shocked if a significant amount of light actually made it through any of those now.
Having done this before and knowing that with those machines this is usually not what you actually see, i try to soothe my mind by believing this is only to show what happens inside those machines, not how they actually do it. Also for most applications i came across, I don't even see an advantage of doing multiple fibers at once.
You've understand it incorrectly, this high-tech fusion will also integrates a built-in loss into your fiber, in case you need to run the ZR module between racks
Only credit i can give them for this shitty end result is, that they tried to show the process by manually holding the fibers down and somehow overriding whatever security usually is in those machines as from all machines i know, you close the kid and a contrast enhanced picture on a screen is all you get to see. So this was just a demonstration of what happens inside. If that was how they do it every time... Oh my....
@@gblargg That is what I credited those splices looking that bad to. From looking at alignment, I cannot imagine this is what you want to do if you want to get equally good dampening values across all fibers, unless you can position all those fibers individually, which then as I assume does not safe you any time at all. I looked up if I could find such fusion splicers, and actually there was one single company I could find something like this which they call a fiber ribbon splicer. But it requires either very specialised ribbon fiber cables, or a bunch of accessories to make a ribbon from those fibers first and then very specific tools to prepare those, so again, I don´t see any real advantage in speed. I know corning makes such ribbon cables, but I could only see an advantage if you really only use those cables and connect them to each other. Main advantage about those seems to be as well, they have a number of rbbbons in colored tubes of which multples are bundled in one cable for underground installation. Different to most other fiber optic bundle cables I know, they seem not to have any gel between the fibers. So having not to clean up that mess may come as an advantage that way. On the other hand, I never run into ribbon cable splice boxes or pigtails yet (I would be surprised if they build cable that way and those would not exist.)
hell yeah dude just need a repeater every two metres now, thankfully I'll save a lot of time doing those splices because instead of 8 we're looking at more like 4000 per kilometre
Кто ничего не понял, на этом видео показан пример, как делается пайка на стыке оптоволокна интернет кабеля. На самом деле это ювелирная работа и не каждый может сделать её качественно. Прибавьте сюда сложности с погодных условий, ведь стык вам придётся делать не всегда в теплом и удобном помещении, иногда это может быть на улице в дождь или в холод, на высоте или в каком то ином трудно доступном месте.
😂 Forget core alignment, hell, forget clad alignment, introducing Ling Ling's new "eyeball alignment" splice machine. Forged by a blacksmith in middle earth. Only 10.99db loss !
I am a mechanical engineer...i am not sure ..but i feel the laser cannot pass through any one of the fiber because i can see the distortion at the joint. It must look seamless to fascilititate total internal reflection.So i would say this is a faliure.
Could be a few things, the cleaver is not as sharp as it used to be, creating an uneven cut. Also, the diodes looked a little dirty, and not sure if that has anything to do with the fusion splice. This is worth noting that this is ribbon fiber, and not your standard 12ct loose fiber in the buffer tubes.
I watched that and went oh no. I know nothing about these but I saw two of the other videos and I saw perfection in those. I look in the comments and it's all the people talking about how it's such shit and there's even a dude who does this for a living talking about how that is going to just create jitter or some kind of bullshit. Why would you publish the video?
