		<description><![CDATA[The Fujikura FSM-20RSII12 ribbon fusion splicer utilizes a PAS (Profile Alignment System) that aligns the core of single-mode and the cladding of multimode fibers. The built in 3" monitor allows cross-sectional viewing of the prepared fiber ends while also displaying the cleave angle and estimated splice loss. The FSM-20RSII12 can splice both single-mode and multi-mode fibers. Alignment, fusion and splice loss estimation are automatically completed by the built-in computer. The splicer includes a built-in tube heater for installing splice protective sleeves. It can be powered by AC or external 12 VDC.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The S121 series of fusion splicers from Fitel are the first fully functional fusion splicers designed specifically for fiber-to-the-home applications. At nearly 1/3 the size of regular fusions splicers, the T-shaped units can be operated in space-constrained areas using only one hand. Designed for a minimum excess fiber length, these splicers feature fully automatic fiber feed, alignment, splicing arc, and tension test. All splicing operations can be monitored for accuracy using an integrated CCD camera and a 2.5-inch LCD display.]]></description>
