What Is Fiber Splicing?
Fiber splicing is a crucial service required at every fiber location. It involves joining two fiber optic cables together. This method is preferred when the available fiber optic cable is not long enough for the required distance or when an existing cable is broken. Properly splicing cables is essential for avoiding network outages, failures, or disruptions, whether you’re installing a new fiber optic network or updating an existing one.
What is Considered an Outside Plant? (OSP)
In the telecommunications sector, an outside plant refers to all the physical cabling and supporting infrastructure, such as conduits, cabinets, towers, or poles, along with any associated hardware like repeaters. These components are located between a demarcation point in a switching facility and a demarcation point in another switching center or a customer’s location.
The United States Department of Defense (DOD) defines an outside plant as the communication equipment found between a main distribution center, and the end users instrument (phone, computer, router, etc.)
