摘要： An optical fiber fuse protection device includes an upstream optical fiber disposed on an upstream side, a downstream optical fiber disposed on a downstream side, and a wall interposed between a part of the upstream optical fiber and a part of the downstream optical fiber. The downstream optical fiber is fusion-spliced to the upstream optical fiber and is made of a single optical fiber or a plurality of optical fibers fusion-spliced to each other.

摘要： A field-assembly optical connector includes an inner sleeve module, a connector frame housing the inner sleeve module, and a cable boot coupled to the inner sleeve module to protect a sheath of an optical fiber. The inner sleeve module includes a sleeve body having a sleeve, an intermediate connector fitted on the sleeve body and having protrusions, a spring fitted on a threaded portion of the sleeve body, a fixing ring screwed to the threaded portion of the sleeve body, and a ferrule stub inserted into the sleeve body through the fixing ring. A cable boot is fixed to the sleeve body and is coupled to the intermediate connector to be moveable within a predetermined range.

摘要： The present disclosure relates to an optical splice package for splicing together first and second optical fibers or first and second sets of optical fibers. The optical fibers have elastic bending characteristics. The splice package includes a splice housing including a mechanical alignment feature for co-axially aligning ends of the first and second optical fibers or sets of optical fibers within the splice housing. The splice housing contains adhesive for securing the ends of the first and second optical fibers or sets of optical fibers within the splice housing. The optical package has a weight less than a spring force corresponding to the elastic bending characteristics of the first and second optical fibers or sets of optical fibers.

摘要： A splice holder tray has a splice holder section that includes a plurality of inclined channels. Each of the plurality of inclined channels includes a first portion presenting a cross section area that is measured on a reference plane, two opposite lateral openings, and a top opening and a bottom opening. The bottom opening has an area smaller than the cross section area.

摘要： An optical fiber arrangement method includes: preparing an intermittently connected optical fiber ribbon including optical fibers arranged side by side at a first pitch larger than a fiber diameter; holding a non-connecting region of the optical fiber ribbon with a holder, where connecting portions intermittently connect the optical fibers extending out from the holder to each other; changing a width of the optical fiber ribbon in an interior of the holder; and arranging the optical fibers, extending out from the holder, with intervals of the optical fibers changed from the first pitch to a second pitch smaller than the first pitch by removing the connecting portions in a state where the holder is holding the optical fibers.

摘要： A fusion splicing device includes a fusion splicing unit, a fusion splicing control unit, an imaging unit, and a notification unit. The fusion splicing unit fusion-splices optical fibers by discharge between a pair of electrode rods. The fusion splicing control unit controls an operation of the fusion splicing unit and has an operation mode for performing a discharge test. The imaging unit generates image data of a fusion spliced portion of the optical fibers. The notification unit notifies various kinds of information. The discharge test is to fusion-splice the optical fibers, to check a fusion-spliced state of the optical fibers on the basis of the image data, and to adjust a fusion splicing condition to be close to an optimum condition. When a predetermined start condition is satisfied, the fusion splicing control unit causes the notification unit to notify information for requesting execution of the discharge test.

摘要： Provided is an optical fiber ribbon capable of achieving higher density and reduction in diameter and accurately placing optical fibers in V-shape grooves in a fusion machine without failure. The optical fiber ribbon 1 includes three or more of optical fibers 2 arranged in parallel and connecting portions 3 connecting adjacent two optical fibers 2 together, the connecting portions 3 being intermittently provided in each of a ribbon longitudinal direction and a ribbon width direction. The connecting portions 3 are each formed in such a manner as to fill resin into a gap S formed between adjacent two optical fibers 2, and both surfaces of the respective connecting portions 3 are each formed into a recess having a concave shape curved toward a center of the gap S to separate from lines 4,5 each connecting contact points of the optical fibers 2 when being placed on a horizontal surface.
