Splicing of optical fiber cable is done to extend a cable, making it longer, or to repair a break in it. Splicing is preferred over installation of connectors, because the connectors introduce losses and degrade reliability. Some connectors are necessary, but those are placed in a protected environment, and their use is minimized. Besides, a typical cable, with 56 or more strands, would require 56 or more connectors, and that would create a large lump in the cable.

Copper wires and satellite transmission.
No, optical fibers are not opaque; they are made from transparent materials, typically glass or plastic, that allow light to pass through. These fibers utilize the principle of total internal reflection to transmit light signals over long distances with minimal loss. While glass fibers are transparent, they can be made opaque for specific applications, but standard optical fibers are designed to be clear to efficiently transmit data.
Good optical fiber is made of glass, but inexpensive fiber is sometimes made of plastic.
Splicing means joining in optical fibers.a process called splicing takes place to join two fibers.
A splicing machine is used in telecommunications and fiber optic networks to join two optical fibers together. The splicing process creates a low-loss connection that allows data to be transmitted efficiently over long distances.
Splicing tools are instruments used to join two pieces of material, commonly in the context of fiber optics or telecommunications. Examples include fiber optic splicing machines, which align and fuse optical fibers, and hand tools like cleavers and strippers, which prepare the fibers for splicing. Other tools may include fusion splicers and mechanical splicers, each designed for specific types of connections and applications.
The NT7L30AA is an optical fiber fusion splicing machine manufactured by Nortel, a telecommunications company based in Canada. This device is designed to efficiently join optical fibers using a fusion splicing technique, ensuring minimal signal loss and optimal performance in fiber optic networks. It is commonly used in telecommunications and data communication applications, where reliable and high-speed data transmission is essential. The machine typically features user-friendly interfaces and advanced technology to enhance splicing accuracy and efficiency.

No. Light is transmitted through optical fibers.
Optical fibers are flexible transparent fibers made of glass or plastic and transmits light between its two ends. They are mainly used in the fields of applied science and engineering.
