So fusion splicing requires more skilled technicians than mechanical splicing so jio choosen mechanical connectors also need more investments in buying splicing instruments if fusion splicing is opted.

What's funny is even small players are using fusion splicing !

Well, you need to arrive at a balance. To splice you need the splicing equipment and personnel. With a field mountable fast connector, it becomes easy and quick. Time is money.

Sure the field assembly kit has higher loss (0.3 db vs 0.1 db?) but the way they have the things setup maybe it is okay. I'm sure they'd have did a cost benefit analysis of both approaches and probably determined that using a field assembly kit is beneficial for them. When they calculated the PON power budget, the loss due to a field kit may have been included in it.

Even Spectra does that in some areas, their equipment comes with the SC connectors so they just use a pre fabricated cable instead of splicing on the field.

While installing, optical power went upto -16dbm but they some how reduced it to -19dbm when I enquired about it they said with higher power we can't configur the ONT . What's in it ? With just bends and straights at OLT, technician adjusted the optical power.

And is there any other way to use landline option given with the connection other than traditional landline ? I think Airtel doesn't have app like jio call.
