ABSTRACT:
Ribbon made of long fibers has each of its ends separated into four bundles. The four bundles of each end carry the same four discrete indicia arranged in a different pattern. The bundles are inter-engaged so that the bundles of the same indicia lie together throughout the entire length of the splice. A splicing apparatus including clamps and guide loops holds the first set of bundles in place while the second set of bundles is inter-engaged therewith. Clamps are also provided to hold the ribbon ends in place.
