The portion of the optical power that does not pass through the splice and is radiated out of the fiber is referred to as splice loss. Fusion splices have a significant advantage over other competing fiber connections solutions in terms of the quantity of optical power reflected. The term comes from the fact that pull boxes are used in conjunction with conduits to make electrical installation easier. They are composed of sheet metal, cast metal, or a non-metallic substance, and they allow conductors to be pulled across long distances without putting too much strain on the wire or insulation.
