The Fujikura FSM-16S is a portable fusion splicer engineered for single-mode, multimode, dispersion-shifted, and NZ-DS optical fibers in field and installation environments. It delivers typical splice losses of 0.05 dB (SM), 0.02 dB (MM), and 0.08 dB (DS), with return loss exceeding 60 dB. The unit completes splices in approximately 25 seconds and stores data for the last 300 splicing events.
