  • Abstract
    We have developed a permanent fiber optic cable splice for avionics applications that provides the capability of cable restoration for field/fleet-environment on-aircraft repair of broken fiber optic cables. Prototype samples have passed stringent environmental research testing requirements specified by NAVAIR whereby the pass-fail criterion was set at 1 dB maximum insertion loss.
