The Fujikura FSM-20C Fiber Fusion Splicer is a compact, lightweight instrument engineered for permanent splicing of single-mode and multimode optical fibers using arc fusion technology. It delivers low-loss connections suitable for field deployment and space-constrained environments. The splicer incorporates a Profile Alignment System (PAS) for precise core alignment of SM fibers and cladding alignment of MM fibers, with integrated splice loss estimation and real-time monitoring via an integrated display.
