1, Permanent fiber optic connection, also known as hot melt: the connection points of two optical fibers are melted and connected together by discharge. Generally used for long-distance connections, permanent or semi permanent fixed connections. Its main feature is that the connection attenuation is the lowest among all connection methods, but when connecting, specialized equipment and personnel are required for operation, and the connection points also need to be protected by dedicated containers;
2, Emergency connection, also known as cold fusion: mainly uses mechanical and chemical methods to fix and bond two optical fibers together. The main characteristic of this method is that the connection is fast and reliable, but the connection point will be unstable and the attenuation will increase significantly after long-term use, so it can only be used urgently in a short period of time;
3, Activity Connection: Activity Connection is a method of connecting sites to sites or sites to optical cables using various fiber optic connection devices, plugs, and sockets. This method is flexible, simple, convenient, and reliable, and is commonly used in computer network wiring inside buildings.
