Fiber optic cabling can be pre-terminated to connectors by your cabling supplier, or they can be terminated in the field using fusion splicing with pigtails or splice-on connectors or using mechanical splice or traditional epoxy/polish connectors. Factory-terminated fiber cable comes direct from the manufacturer, where it is prepared under the supervision of fiber optic experts in a high care, clean environment, free of the dust and other pollutants found in a common field environment. Fiber optic termination refers to a physical connection of fiber or wire to a device. Fusion splicing involves joining two optical fibers end-to-end using some source of heat. We're all familiar with fuses used in electrical devices, right? A fuse is a safety device that interrupts the flow of current when an electrical circuit is overloaded.
