USE STATE OF THE ART FUSION SPLICERS BY SUMITOMO
Sumitomo means - innovation, speed and performance. Network expansion becomes easy when you choose one of Sumitomo’s fusion splicers.
Maintaining Fiber Optic Industry Leading Features
Sumitomo is known for breakthrough fusion splicer technology. This is the company that introduced the world to the ground breaking technology of the MPO Splice-On-Connector, which decidedly altered the way worksite connectivity was achieved. Not only that, the SOC lowered both the time it takes to complete the job, and the cost. The benefits were felt throughout the splicing industry. Users of Sumitomo products have come to rely on their expertise in designing and building quality splicers with innovation, speed, and performance.

SUMITOMO SPLICER PARTS
Fiber Holders - Sumitomo’s fiber holders are designed to exacting tolerances. This attention to precise manufacturing helps load the fiber correctly and accurately. They are designed to be used specifically with Sumitomo fusion splicers. Fiber holders are purchased in pairs.
Electrodes - These are a consumable item that is used in a fusion splicer and they must be replaced on a regular basis. High temperatures used in the fusion process will begin to wear the tip of each electrode. Unless you replace the electrodes on regular basis, you will begin to induce increased attenuation each time a splice is attempted. This is one place you do not want to skimp. Always use the manufacturer’s replacement electrodes. The type of material used here makes the difference. After-market parts are usually substandard and will cause problems with this important function.
HOW DOES FUSION SPLICING WORK?
It’s really quite simple. Heat is applied to fuse together two pieces of optical fiber. A fusion splicer uses an electrical arc which melts the two pieces of optical fiber to form one continuous piece of fiber. When the splicing is done correctly the fusion splice will minimize back reflections, which are the light that is reflected back to the source after it encounters an imperfection in the fiber. There are 5 simple steps that must be adhered to. First of all, the fiber must remain clean during this process. The optical fiber needs to have all jackets and coatings removed until only the glass fibers remain. Next, the fiber must be cleaved. A special cleaving tool must be used for this process. In this step the cleaved end on each fiber must be perpendicular. A fusion splicer is then used for the next step. This is where the electrical arc from the fusion splicer melts the two ends into one continuous fiber. Finally, the splice itself must be protected against breakage. This is done by placing a protective sleeve over the exact splice location. Finally the fiber should then be tested for end to end loss.
