Optical Fusion Splicers

Sumitomo Electric is the recognized leader in the development of the highest quality fusion splicing equipment and accessories that have and continue to advance fusion splicing technology.

Optical fiber fusion splicing, which is essential for building optical fiber networks, is the technology to join two optical fibers using heat generated by electrical discharge from electrodes.

Sumitomo Electric achieves low-loss connection by utilizing its world-class mechatronics technologies. Various optical fiber fusion splicers and relevant tools (jacket removers, optical fiber cutters and optical fiber testers) are developed for different applications, with focus on small size, light weight, and ease of use.
