Today’s research and factory splicing applications require a tremendous amount of flexibility. Fujikura’s FSM-45PM splicer is designed with both of these applications in mind.

The FSM-45PM splicer is designed to handle dissimilar fiber combinations with ease and splices various types of fibers ranging from < 80µm to 400µm clad diameter fibers. The FSM-45PM splicer features Fujikura’s patented Sweep™ arc technology to minimize splice loss between different combinations.

The FSM-45PM splicer features an “automatic” splice mode that can align 50 types of PM fibers. Since the transition from research to production is so critical, this splicer has been designed to be compatible with AFL Telecommunications’ SpliceMaster and SpliceLab software packages, and a full set of LabVIEW® drivers, enabling a wide variety of additional functions, including splicing based upon test meter feedback (attenuation, polarization, etc.). Communication is through a USB interface.

Features:

• Capable of splicing fibers from < 80µm to 400µm clad diameter
• Short cleave length capability
• Single clamp for 80-400 um
• Ultra high strength splicing capability
• Consistent splicing results with a wide variety of fiber types
• 150+ LabVIEW drivers
• Compatibility with SpliceLab™ splicing management software provides great flexibility to control splicing parameters for laboratory-type splicing
• Compability with SpliceMaster® splicing management software enables smooth transition from development to production
• USB PC interface
