The Quantum Type-Q101-CA from Sumitomo marks the new standard for fusion splicers. It offers a number of innovative features that put it far ahead of the competition.
The Sumitomo Type-65 Micro-Mass fusion splicer sets a new standard for reduced size and weight, and is designed for complete portability. Type-65 can be used for all types of ribbon and single-fiber splicing with an optimum arrangement for ease of use in aerial and taut-sheath applications.
The Type-66 TuffCat mass fusion splicer features the industry’s first Dual-Automatic-Splice Protection Sleeve Heater System – Sumitomo’s exclusive patent-pending system. The dual heater system’s simultaneous operation helps to eliminate squandered time waiting for a single heater system to complete its cycle. Instead, the streamlined splicing process reduces the bottle neck of “heater wait time” by 88%, improving mass splicing efficiency and productivity in the field by 70%.
The Sumitomo Type-39 FastCat Core Alignment fusion splicer is the industry’s first splicer to feature a Dual-Automatic Heater System featuring Auto Start Heater and Auto Start Splice functions – making the FastCat the fastest splicer available today.
The new Type-25e TomCat fusion splicer from Sumitomo incorporates all the features, functions and proven reliability of the Type-25 family – the industry’s most popular handheld splicers for FTTx and restoration applications – but with a great many enhancements. The TomCats feature improved optical technology utilizing your choice of an economical single camera system or an industry standard dual camera splice loss estimation system. The improved optical technology, combined with a quicker splice protection sleeve heater, allows the unit to deliver a typical splice time in less that 11 seconds for SMF or MMF.
December 15, 2010 – Sumitomo Electric Lightwave has announced the availability of the first fixed V-groove Sumitomo fusion splicer with a dual heating system. The built-in dual heating system of the Type-46 TomCat plus fusion splicer improves splicing efficiency and productivity by 70%, Sumitomo Electric Lightwave asserts. The splicer’s electronic design, which accommodates a built-in [...]
August 24, 2010 – AFL Telecommunications is launching two new fiber-optic fusion splicers: the FSM-100M and the FSM-100P for splicing polarization maintaining (PM) fibers. Both new specialty fiber fusion splicers, branded as the ARCMaster family, are designed to address the splicing needs for factory, manufacturing, laboratory, and R&D applications. “The 100M and 100P series splicers [...]
June 28, 2010 – Furukawa Electric Co. Ltd. (FEC), and the U.S.-based OFS, Telecommunications Division have announced the commercial release of the latest clad alignment hand-held fusion splicer, the FITEL S123 fusion splicer series, to the global market. “The FITEL S123 fusion splicer brings both speed and durability for last-mile applications,” said Linda Dembowski, general [...]
March 25, 2010 – Sumitomo Electric Lightwave has introduced the Lynx2 CustomFit splice-on connector with three connector types, SC, LC, and FC for single-mode, 50 and 62.5 micron multimode, and gigabit laser optimized multimode fiber types. The Lynx2 splice connector eliminates the need for crimping for customized FTTx, outside plant, and inside plant field terminations. [...]
