Launch of New Core Alignment Fusion Splicer and New Optical Fiber Cleaver
~Faster and Easier~

Fujikura Ltd. (President & CEO: Naoki Okada) will launch the new core alignment fusion splicer “100S” and the new optical fiber cleaver “CT60” in October.

The “100S” is a fusion splicer designed to connect low-loss optical fibers suitable for long-distance transmission by core alignment. When used together with the new optical fiber cleaver “CT60” and the single fiber stripper “SS05,” connection work time can be reduced by 20%*1compared to conventional models.

The “SS05” enables simultaneous stripping of two optical fibers, and combined with the “CT60,” which allows simultaneous cutting of two optical fibers, significantly shortens the preparation process.

The unit features a “Splice Coach” function that guides the operator through each step of the process, enabling smooth operation even for non-experienced users.

The “100S” incorporates GPS functionality to record splice inspection results along with location data, improving efficiency in construction management and traceability. This information can be downloaded to a smartphone via the“Splice+”*2app. 
The “100S” also retains popular features from previous models, including an automatic wind protector open/close mechanism, “ACTIVE FUSION CONTROL TECHNOLOGY”*3for automatic arc discharge control, and “ACTIVE BLADE MANAGEMENT TECHNOLOGY”*4for wireless monitoring of cleaver blade condition, ensuring stable low-loss splicing.

The “CT60” has undergone a redesign of mechanical components, resulting in more stable cleaving quality than previous models. It features an adjustable lever opening angle—wide for desktop use and narrow for handheld operation—enhancing usability in various work environments.

In addition, it inherits the motorized automatic blade rotation function from previous models.
By adopting a newly developed blade with improved wear resistance, the “CT60” eliminates the need for blade height adjustment previously required, further streamlining work efficiency in the field.
Fujikura remains committed to contributing to society by providing advanced and practical products that support the realization of a digital society through next-generation communications infrastructure development.

*1 Approximately 20% reduction in fusion splicing work time compared to our conventional models, based on internal testing under certain conditions.

*2 “Splice+” smartphone application
Fujikura’s free utility app for fusion splicers, enabling users to view splice data and cleaver blade usage counts, as well as adjust heater temperature settings. (Data communication charges apply.)

*3 “ACTIVE FUSION CONTROL TECHNOLOGY”
Analyzes the condition of cleaved optical fiber end faces and the intensity of optical fiber glow during arc discharge, performing real-time arc control.

*4 “ACTIVE BLADE MANAGEMENT TECHNOLOGY”
Monitors the condition of the cleaver blade, and when wear is detected, wirelessly rotates the blade automatically.
