The technology

Direct light-loss measurement, not estimation

Traditional fusion splice machines rely on estimation algorithms based on visual input, which can miss dirt on fibres, contaminated splice protectors, or core misalignment. The Splice Fault Detector uses advanced IR sensors to detect precise light leakage.

This passive, non-invasive test provides real-time insight into splice quality without disconnecting customers, ensuring consistent, reliable performance even in challenging conditions and reducing costly truck rolls.

Features & benefits

Built for provision and repair activities

Reduce Costs

Fewer faults at customer premises means fewer truck rolls and crews.

Eliminate Revisits

Confirm splice quality first time, on live fibre.

Guaranteed Accuracy

Precise, repeatable measurement of splice loss.

Non-Invasive

Tests without stress on the cable or customer disconnection.

Works on Live Fibre

Operates on the live network IR signal, no red-light test needed.

Identify Splice Loss

Pinpoint network splice loss with confidence.

Cloud Traceability

App-powered logging for a full record of every test.

Open APIs

Available for seamless integration with your systems.

Why it matters

Limitations with current solutions

The Splice Fault Detector offers a reliable post-splice testing method for engineers, ensuring a final quality check is always completed.

It checks for light loss without putting stress on the cable, providing a direct measurement rather than a geometric estimate.

Our tool operates on the live network IR signal, eliminating the need for a red-light test and reducing unnecessary intervention. It is compatible with both cladding and core alignment splice machines.
