The Fujikura FSM-11R is a compact, automated fusion splicer engineered for single-fiber splicing across single-mode, multimode, and specialty fiber types. Operating on internal lithium-ion battery or AC mains, it delivers consistent low-loss splices in approximately 7 seconds with automatic arc calibration and active core alignment. The device achieves typical splice losses below 0.05 dB for SMF and 0.02 dB for MMF, completing protection sleeve heating in 25 seconds. Weighing 1.9 kg, the FSM-11R combines portability with field-grade durability across operating temperatures from -10°C to +50°C, making it suitable for both deployment and laboratory environments.
