The 3M brand Fibrlok II 2529 Universal Optical Fiber Splice is a high performance, easy-to-use, mechanical optical fiber splice. The Fibrlok II Universal Splice can be used with either single-mode or multimode fibers with a cladding diameter of 125 microns. It will accommodate any combination of fibers with coating diameters from 250 mm to 900 mm. In addition, the Universal Optical Fiber Splice incorporates a single cleave length for splicing both 250 and 900 micron coated fibers and provides the ability to "re-position" fibers for increased splicing yields.
The splice consists of four molded polymeric components and an aluminum alloy alignment element. The four polymeric components are: Jacket, End Plug (2), and Cap. The jacket is provided with a compartment to house the aluminum alloy element. The end plugs are attached to each end of the jacket and locate the element laterally within the splice jacket. Each splice end plug contains a fiber entry port which is used to guide either 250 or 900 micron coated optical fiber into the alignment element. During splice actuation, the cap acts on the element to align and secure the fibers within the splice.
The Fibrlok II Universal Optical Fiber Splice is an improved version of the original Fibrlok Optical Splice. The Universal Optical Fiber Splice element is constructed from the same ductile aluminum alloy as the original Fibrlok Splice element. All splice components are factory-assembled. An index matching gel is pre-installed in the splice element.
During assembly, the splice is held within the Fibrlok 2501 Assembly Tool. After the fibers are inserted into the splice, the cap is depressed with the Assembly Tool. The motion of the cap squeezes the "legs" of the element such that the "legs" come together. The fibers are permanently aligned and gripped in the fiber holding region of the splice when the cap is actuated.
The Fibrlok has an insertion loss of <0.2dB with a minimum tensile load of 4.4N (1.0lb-f) and splice reflection no greater than -40dB.
