Fibre splicing is one of those jobs that’s done either properly or not at all. There’s no middle ground — a bad splice introduces loss that won’t show up until you’re trying to push 10 Gig through it eighteen months later.

What we splice

OS2 single-mode for backbone runs (between buildings, between floors, anything where distance matters). OM4 multi-mode for shorter high-bandwidth runs (server room to comms room is the common one). FTTP residential — single-mode, internal runs and patch panel terminations.

Every splice is fusion-spliced (not mechanical), every splice gets OTDR-tested, and every job leaves with the trace report on file.

What it costs

Per-splice pricing varies based on whether it’s bench or in-pit, single-mode or multi-mode, and how many splices total. We quote per job. As a rough sense: a 12-fibre patch panel termination at one end is typically $400-$600 fully tested.

What you’ll have

OTDR trace per splice (PDF). Patch panel labelled. Splice tray with sleeves heat-shrunk and stored. If you need it, we’ll provide a fibre certification document for an audit or insurance.

We work with electricians, IT teams, and architects on commercial fit-outs constantly — most of our fibre work comes through trade referrals. If you’ve got a specific fibre job and you want a quote, ring us with the spec sheet (or text us a photo of the existing run) and we’ll get back to you fast.

Testimonials

What clients say

★★★★★
“14-station office fitout in the CBD. Booked Friday, install over the weekend, certified test results emailed Monday morning. Tidy, professional, no surprises. The whole team came away talking about how unusual it was to have a contractor that actually answered the phone.”

★★★★★
“Telstra had been hopeless for months — kept blaming the modem, the modem kept blaming the line. Aussie Cabling came out next day, found a corroded NBN lead-in, replaced it. Test report on the spot. Six months in, zero issues.”

★★★★★
“Manage 8 commercial properties across Brisbane and the Gold Coast. Aussie Cabling took over the cabling work after our last contractor disappeared mid-project. They picked up cleanly, finished the existing scope and re-certified everything. Now my only call.”

FAQ

Fibre Splicing & Termination — common questions

What's fusion splicing vs mechanical splicing? +
Fusion splicing fuses two fibre cores together with a precisely controlled electric arc — lowest loss, longest-lasting, what we use as standard. Mechanical splicing aligns the cores and holds them with index-matching gel — faster but higher loss and more failure-prone over time. We don't use mechanical splicing on permanent installs.
What's OTDR testing? +
Optical Time Domain Reflectometer — it shoots a pulse down the fibre and measures the reflection at every junction, splice and termination. Tells us exactly where any losses or breaks are. Every splice we do gets OTDR-tested and you get the trace report.
Can you splice in-conduit or only on a bench? +
Both. Most pit-to-rack work we splice in-pit using a fusion splicer with battery operation. Bench splicing is fine for cassettes and patch panel terminations.
Do you do residential FTTP fibre? +
Yes — internal FTTP runs for new builds and renovations, including pre-cabling for future fibre. We can also work with your retail provider on the lead-in.
How long does splicing take? +
Per splice, about 5-8 minutes including cleaving, alignment, fusion, sleeve and OTDR test. A typical 12-fibre patch panel termination is a half-day with testing.
