Description
The Sumitomo Quantum Type-Q102-CA+-KIT-1; Core Alignment Fusion Splicer is Sumitomo Electric Lightwave’s next generation of the industry leading Quantum core alignment fusion splicers, redesigned from the ground up to redefine the industry standard in optical fiber core alignment fusion technology. Maintaining all of the qualities and industry first features of the Quantum Q101-CA, the Q102- CA+ continues to raise the bar in performance by still being the fastest splicer with blazing fast 5 second splice and 9 second sleeve heating times. These new speeds, coupled with the splicer’s patent protected dual independent ovens, makes it the fastest in the industry by far. The built-in dual heater system, with its unprecedented speed, improves splicing efficiency by over 80% for perfectly streamlined, consecutive, and cost effective splices.
The Sumitomo Quantum Type-Q102-CA+ is equipped with NanoTune™ technology, which greatly improves splicing efficiency and accuracy regardless of operational condition and user skill, with the use of AI algorithms. The Q102-CA+ drastically reduces the need of splice reworks caused by insufficient fiber preparation such as poor cleaving, thus reducing overall costs. Its Preventive Maintenance feature enables users to be alerted of upcoming repairs or consumable replacement, thus reducing unexpected downtime. SumiCloud™ supports this function with wireless LAN connectivity.
The Q102-CA+ can splice in 5 seconds in Quick Mode, and has an improved heating time of 8 seconds. In addition to a variety of highly regarded functions inherited from its predecessor, such as the lightweight and compact design and shock-proof, dust-proof, and drip-proof frame, the Q102-CA+ saves power consumption by 7% with a newly employed heat-resistant material, thereby enabling 320 operation cycles on a full charge.
The Sumitomo Type-Q102-CA is part of Sumitomo Electric Lightwave’s next generation of Quantum core alignment fusion splicers, engineered for superior precision, speed, and reliability. Redefining the standard for optical fiber splicing, the Q102-CA achieves a 5-second splice time and 9-second dual heater cycle, making it the fastest in the industry.
Its dual independent heat shrink ovens, ruggedized IP-rated construction, and smartphone-like touchscreen interface make it ideal for demanding telecom and fiber installation environments. Built for productivity, it performs over 300 splice and heat cycles per charge and features automatic splice start, arc calibration, and fiber identification for seamless operation. The Q102-CA is compatible with Lynx2 CustomFit® Splice-On Connectors and supports real-time software updates and data storage via SD and internet interfaces.
