Description of the fiber optic splicer

BACKGROUND OF THE fiber optic splicer

The present fiber optic splicer relates generally to a new and useful polymeric optical fiber splicer useful for connecting two optical fibers together. More specifically, the invention relates to a connectorized fiber optical splicer.

Many modern telecommunications networks have been converted from older, metallic wire-transmission lines, and accompanying technology, into newer, optical fiber transmission lines and technology. By performing this conversion, the telecommunications networks are able to provide better service to their subscribers.

OBJECTS AND SUMMARY OF THE fiber optic splicer

A general object of the invention is to provide a uniquely constructed connectorized splicer or fiber connector for optical fibers.

A more specific object of the invention is to provide an optical fiber splicer-connector having means for accepting a stripped optical fiber on one end thereof, and a connector on another end.

Another object of the present invention is to provide an optical fiber splicer-connector which combines the elements of a spicier with the elements of a connector.

Yet another object of the present invention is to provide an optical fiber splicer assembly by fusion splicer manufacturer, as well as a method for constructing and testing the same, which allows the splicer-connector to be nondestructively tested at a factory to determine transmission quality.

An optical fiber splicer-connector, constructed according to the teachings of the present invention, comprises a fiber section, a splice section, and a connecting section. The splice section is located between the fiber section and the connecting section. A fiber channel is disposed on the fiber section for accepting an optical fiber and for guiding the optical fiber to the splice section. Means for splicing optical fibers is located on the splice section. A fiber channel is disposed on the connecting section for accepting an optical fiber and for guiding the optical fiber to the splice section. The connecting section includes a connecting body for releasably attaching the fiber optic splicer to an adapter. In one embodiment, the splice section and the connecting section are provided as separate, interengagable pieces.
