Splice Up Your Life! Discover the Powerful Splice Fault Detector from SkillsBase
The SkillsBase reddot award-winning Splice Fault Detector is a noninvasive field testing tool that improves splice quality and end customer experience in real time.
The Splice Fault Detector
Traditional fusion splice machines rely on estimation algorithms, which are based on visual input only, can lead to inaccuracies in assessing splice quality. Factors like dirt on the fibres and in the splice protectors, or core misalignment, are not always adequately considered, resulting in suboptimal performance and increased maintenance needs.
The Splice Fault Detector offers a passive, noninvasive test using advanced IR sensors to detect precise light leakage. This approach provides real-time insights into splice quality without disconnecting customers from the network, ensuring more consistent and reliable splice performance, even in challenging conditions.
With the Splice Fault Detector, uncertainties in splice quality assessment are reduced, improving operational efficiency and reducing downtime. Moreover, by decreasing faults at customer premises, the Splice Fault Detector helps minimise the need for subsequent truck rolls and crews, saving resources and costs for network operators and ultimately improving customer experience.

Limitations with Current Solutions
Splice Machine Estimates
Problem: Algorithms estimate splice loss based on visual and geometric properties.
Solution: The Splice Fault Detector provides a Direct Light Loss Measurement for accuracy.
Core VS Cladding
Problem: Cladding Alignment splice
machines offer a cost-effective alternative Core Alignment splice but are less forgiving.
Solution: The Splice Fault Detector is compatible with both machine types.
Fibre Optic Hygiene
Problem: Maintaining best practices during splicing is crucial.
Solution: The Splice Fault Detector ensures a final quality check, confirming adherence to hygiene practices and helps to identify splice machine calibration and hygiene requirements.
Power Meter Checks
Checking splice quality through power meters may not always occur. The Splice Fault Detector offers a testing method post-splice for engineers.
Live Fibre Identifier (LFI)
Some LFI tools estimate splice loss inaccurately. The Splice Fault Detector checks for light loss without putting stress on the cable.
Red Light Test
Red Light Tests require customer disconnection and lacks precision. The Splice Fault Detector operates on the Live Network IR signal, eliminating the need for a red light test and Reducing Unnecessary Intervention.
