This time, Sumitomo is launching the new T-71M12 fiber optic fusion splicer, setting a new standard in fusion splicing. It is the first and only fusion splicer with adjustable automatic clamps and the ability to calibrate the clamps during the splicing process. This allows for real-time adjustment to compensate for insertion losses during the fusion of ribbon cables and MPO terminations. Furthermore, it is the fastest fusion splicer in the industry, performing a 12-fiber splice in under 70 seconds. It is also compatible with the new Lynx MPO.
The T-71M12 is the lightest, smallest, and most advanced fusion splicer on the market, offering superior resistance to dust, shocks, and water, making it ideal for the harshest environmental conditions. Its dual-oven system, a Sumitomo Electric innovation, reduces heater waiting time and improves splicing efficiency by 70%, delivering unprecedented speed, performance, and reliability.
This fusion splicer retains many of the features of the T-71C, including:
• A touchscreen for easy operation and navigation.
• Image capture tools and zoom for detailed splice inspection.
• A high-speed, independent dual-oven system with configurable clamps.
• A carrying case with an integrated work table.
• An SD card slot for storing information, images, and videos.
