FastCat® Dual Heater
Core Alignment Splicer
Description:
®
Sumitomo’s Type-39 FastCat
Alignment Fusion splicer is the industry’s
first splicer to feature a Dual-Automatic
Heater System featuring Auto Start
Heater and Auto Start Splice functions
— making the FastCat the fastest splicer
available today.
The Type-39 FastCat’s advanced
electronic design, which accommodates
the built-in dual heating system and
simultaneous operation, reduces the
bottle neck of “heater wait time” by 88%.
With an individual heater cycle time of
only 30 seconds (60mm Fiber Protection
Sleeves) and a splice cycle of only 9
seconds, the FastCat improves splicing
efficiency by 70%.
Core
The FastCat is a fully automatic, highly
portable, self-contained instrument for
creating quick and effortless low-loss
optical fiber splices in any environment
with a typical splice loss of only .02(dB) for
identical single-mode fiber. It is designed to
work with virtually all fiber types including
single-mode, multimode, dispersion shifted
and other specialty fibers.
The splicer utilizes precision Highresolution Direct Core Monitoring (HDCM)
technology to form repeatable low-loss
splice results. HDCM and Dual Heater
technologies, combined with Sumitomo
Electric’s track record for reliability and
customer support, make the FastCat the
industry’s new standard for fusion splicers.
