Since no one has really explained this fully yet, here we go:

Splash damage is when you attack one enemy, and every enemy in his direct vicinity also takes damage. It's like you throw a grenade at someone's feet; when it explodes, the target, as well as everyone within the blast radius will take damage. So when you're using a heavy cannon, you'll notice that everyone near your target is also being hit as well. However, not all two handed weapons are heavy cannons. The heavy cannons have the very large weapon icon, opposed to the two handed rifles with the much skinnier weapon icon. I also believe most heavy cannons have handles on the top of the gun, and he actual weapon is under it. The splash damage is a hidden feature that is not listed on the weapon description.
