I used to use mechanical connectors like 3M Crimplok....similar to Unicam.
Do those contain an index matching gel like a mechanical splice does?
If so, don't they wear out in a few of years as the gel degrades?

Corning unicam works very well. No splicer needed.

Might look at the "fast connect" connectors, they are
mechanical...cheap from China...works very well on 2-3mm. We've used
a bunch of them.

Makes sense.. We are fusion splicing our own splice on connectors
however.. so don’t want anything pre-terminated.
