  Abstract

FTTD (Fiber to the desk) is used for field-assembled optical connectors of the fusion splicing method. The field-assembled optical connector of the fusion splicing method is connected and assembled using a general optical fiber fusion splicer. However, in general fusion splicers, the size and weight problems are combined with the complexity of the connection point protection process, which causes the optical fiber connection point to break frequently during the optical connector assembly process. This problem makes it difficult to apply the fusion-type field-assembled optical connector to the FTTD field. In this paper, a fusion splicer for FTTD that can fusion splice the wing-type sleeve type on-site assembly optical connector proposed to solve this problem was fabricated. The manufactured fusion splicer implements the connection module elevating/lowering function to connect and protect the wing-type sleeve-type field-assembled optical connector. In addition, the tube heater used as a junction protection method in the existing fusion splicer was removed and the power module was minimized to enable field use without a separate cradle. The manufactured fusion splicer was analyzed for the improvement of assembly reliability through splice loss measurement and comparison test with the existing fusion splicer.
