Fujikura extends its portfolio with launch of traditional 62S splicer F ujikura Europe has announced that it has expanded its fibre fusion splicer range knowledge and experience of developing new splicing technology,” said Neil Bessant, Fusion Splicer Divisional Manager at
with the launch of a new product – the 62S. The latest addition to Fujikura’s splicer family adds to the company’s portfolio to deliver a complete offering of splicers and accessories for the telecom and speciality markets. This includes the popular 12S (FTTH splicer) and the ultra- compact 22S (Advanced FTTH splicer), as well as the market-leading, flagship 70S (core-alignment splicer). The 62S is a dependable, high specification core-alignment splicer, which delivers a shrink time of 15 seconds. It is also very robust, withstanding a 30 inch drop test on five sides. “Our new 62S is a great addition to our product line up and demonstrates our
Fujikura Europe. “We have been making high quality, unparalleled products since 1978 and pride ourselves on always delivering the speeds and performance detailed on the specification sheet.” The 62S sits beneath the flagship 70S in Fujikura’s portfolio. Specifically designed for speed, durability and ergonomics, the 70S is the fastest splicer on the market, with a splicing time of just six seconds and an improved shrink time of nine seconds. The 70S has a rugged construction design to provide the highest reliability by resisting shock, rain and dust, allowing it to This trade-off means the time it takes to pay for this infrastructure investment is often protracted. Enter the Huawei Any Media Giga Access Platform able to support fibre, copper, coax, combined fixed and mobile access methods. The innovative new tech going into the platform provides the way to the Gigaband era with ultra-broadband network enablement. “The impressive rate of development in ultra-HD video, virtual reality, Smart Home, and other services is moving broadband networks from the 100M-level to the giga-level,” said Zha Jun, President of Huawei’s Fixed Network Product Line, “Huawei’s Any Media Giga Access Platform can make full use of existing
Neil Bessant, Fusion Splicer Divisional Splicer Manager, said that 62S was “a great addition to our line-up”.
In comparison the 62s offers traditional style with manual wind protector and conventional tube heater but still offers high-speed splicing. “We have a range of robust, reliable, technologically advanced splicers and accessories, as well as an unparalleled ability to distribute our products globally,” said Bessant. “The 62S is a great addition to our line-up”.
withstand a 30 inch drop test on six sides. It also features a fully automatic wind protector and automated tube heater developed to reduce the number of operational steps and provide quicker splicing cycles. The unit includes a high-resolution LCD monitor, powerful Li-ion battery for longer operation time and built-in videos for on-the-go training.
Huawei releases Any Media Giga Access platform to deliver ‘gigaband enablement’ H uawei has launched its Any Media Giga Access Platform that allows needed for the rollout tends to be long. copper, coax and fibre resources to help operators achieve their Gigaband strategies early on, in order to provide a better user
In the field of coaxial cables, Huawei’s distributed DOCSIS 3.1 D-CCAP solution was the first to complete CableLabs testing and was also the first solution to pass commercial testing and field trials in Denmark and New Zealand. The Huawei fixed and mobile convergence solution helps customers boost bandwidth for improved user experience and ensure higher levels of network protection. In addition to gigabit-capable bandwidth to power Smart Home, all-optic campus, U-vMOS monitoring of video viewing quality, virtual access management and other intelligence services. Huawei empowers operators with the means to construct a better connected experience with gigabit-capable offerings. ultra-broadband pipes, Huawei’s Giga Access Platform provides the
operators to make full use of the various access media on their existing networks to quickly deploy gigabit-capable ultra-broadband (Gigaband) networks with unified architectures, software, and management. The company stated, “the Gigaband Era is truly upon us now.” Broadband networks are moving from the 100M level to giga-level access at the home as 4K TV, virtual reality, holographic imaging, and other new bandwidth-hungry services emerge. All-optical network is the optimal medium for Gigaband. However, in some regions, exclusive use of optical fibre to build gigabit networks requires huge investment and ROW acquisition, and the time
experience and achieve even greater commercial success. Huawei continues to stay on the gas with its technological innovations into the field and contributions into the industrial chain.” Huawei’s continued development has yielded substantive results, the company stated: “In fibre optics, we have shipped more than 100m FTTH ONT units and as the market share leader, has helped the FTTH industry to achieve higher penetration rate. In copper line, Huawei was the first to finish commercial G.fast field trials in Switzerland and recently completed long- distance G.fast field testing in the UK.”
