What is The Problem?


Anyone who has tried to join two garden hoses together without an adapter knows what the problem is!

Water tends to leak at the joint and if the water pressure is too high the joint might break!


Similarly for an optical cable, we do not want a partial or total loss of light at the joint of two fibres!

How do we prevent the loss of light when joining two fibres?
