What is Fujikura 88S Fusion Splicer

Fujikura 88S is a new core alignment Fusion splicer with Faster Automation feature. The faster automated feature of 88S fusion splicer reduces installation times. The 88S fusion splicer automatically identifies the best arc discharge parameters in accordance with the fiber type. The sheath clamp of the 88S fusion splicer is compatible with loose tube fiber. The 88S fusion splicer and CT50 fiber cleaver are enabled with wireless data connectivity. This capability allows automatic cleaver blade rotation when the splicer judges the blade is worn. Also, the 88S fusion splicer can connect to two CT50s simultaneously.
The 88S has advanced image processing technology which analyzes the profile of the fiber image as a brightness pattern. The tool finds the true core position and achieves consistent lower splice loss. The device features fiber discrimination function: it automatically identifies the best arc discharge parameters in accordance with the fiber type.

Fujikura 88S has faster automated features that reduce installation time. The user can complete the entire splicing process without touching the tool and only moving the fiber. The fiber retention clamps support automated operations. When the sheath clamps open automatically after splicing, the fiber retention clamps gently hold the spliced fiber to keep it from flying out.

Product Description
Explosion of data traffic by smartphones, renewal of back-bone networks by the spread of FTTH (Fiber To The Home) networks, and a series of new submarine cable projects in emerging countries built for basic telecom infrastructure drives the demand for fusion splicers. Fujikura 88S is the latest single fiber core alignment fusion splicer covering various splicing needs in those fields with a series of innovative features, such as automated wind protector / tube heaters, 7-second splicing, and 14-second tube heating, ruggedized body, improved carrying case etc. They are all for great splicing efficiency
