Corning
Cable Systems¡¯ CamSplice. is a simple, craft-friendly mechanical
splice for both multimode and single-mode fibers.
It features a ¡°cam¡± locking mechanism, which requires no adhesive. The CamSplice mechanical splice incorporates a unique,patented fiber alignment method that self-centers the fibers and provides extremely accurate alignment. Average splice loss for the CamSplice mechanical splice is specified at 0.15 dB. ¡°Blind¡± (non-tuned) splice losses of less than 0.5 dB are consistently achievable. There is only one part for 250/250 ¦Ìm, 250/900 ¦Ìm, or 900/900 ¦Ìm applications (one size fits all).
The CamSplice mechanical splice requires minimal training and few accessories to assemble. The assembly process involves stripping and cleaving fibers, inserting the fibers into the splice part until they touch, and turning the cams to secure the fibers. The process does not involve any adhesives or special tools, although an optional assembly fixture is recommended.
Completed splices fit in Corning Cable Systems and many other industry standard splice trays.
