Abstract
Fiber optic cable splicing can be done using a fusion splicer and mechanically. The fiber optic cable that has been connected must also have a low total loss value with splicing loss as one of the parameters. Due to limited equipment and competencies, the fulfillment of the competency evaluation and splicing of fiber optic cables is considered difficult by many students of Computer and Network Engineering Vocational School (TKJ). It is hoped that all participants of this program have the achievement of increasing competence in the field of fiber optic networks as evidenced by a certified internal assessment. Thus, network technicians who are dominated by vocational school graduates have competencies that are in accordance with current network technology developments.
