AFL: Fujikura 100S Core Alignment Splicer

The Fujikura 100S Fusion Splicer from AFL is an advanced active core-alignment fusion splicer.

Built for modern fiber installation demands, the Fujikura 100S Fusion Splicer combines intelligent automation with user-first design to streamline daily splicing tasks. Automation helps reduce user fatigue from repetitive splicing. It automatically recognizes the fiber type and adjusts parameters accordingly. With support for dual fiber loading, technicians can place two prepared fibers into the machine simultaneously, which reduces splicing time by up to 30%. The 100S Fusion Splicer also automatically ensures optimal fiber positioning. If there's too little fiber in front of the electrodes, the splicer automatically pulls more through; if there's too much, it retracts the excess. The 100S features Location-Based Locking, which allows technicians to define a GPS-based Secure Zone where the device remains fully operational. If moved outside this designated area, the splicer automatically locks to prevent unauthorized use or theft. It also records each splice location for comprehensive tracking.

JUDGE’S COMMENT: “This product is a very innovative way to cut down on the time required to splice fiber cables, which is a critical choke point in the deployment of fiber networks.”
