Fibre Splicing:
ATF Fibre is a specialist fibre-optic splicing contractor based in the Highlands of Scotland, delivering precision splicing and termination services for telecommunications, enterprise networks, and marine/offshore installations.
We also travel and do work globally.
Our Splicing Services
We provide expert fusion splicing and connector termination of single-mode and multi-mode optical fibres. Our technicians utilise industry-leading equipment and best-practice methods to ensure minimal splice-loss, high mechanical and optical integrity, and long-term link stability.
Key features of our splicing service include:
-
Use of thermal stripper tools for the removal of fibre primary coating and buffer layers, ensuring clean endfaces and improved splice bonding strength.
-
Fusion splice optimisation: arc calibration, fibre alignment, splice protector application and mechanical ruggedisation.
-
Precision connector terminations using zero-stress cleavers and high-grade connectors to deliver low reflectance and high return-loss links.
-
OTDR trace-analysis and validation of splice quality, including loss per splice, attenuation over length and event reflectance.
-
Full documentation: splice reports, test certificates, and as-built schematic diagrams suitable for commissioning and maintenance purposes.
