Fiber Focus

Josh Seawell, Sumitomo Electric Lightwave’s director of product management, returns to Fiber Focus for a conversation about splicing 200 micron pliable fiber optic ribbon cable. Given its role in enabling the AI Boom and solving for space limitations within data center footprints, 200 micron fiber adoption will continue to surge. For splice technicians, that translates to projects where they could be splicing either the conventional 250 micron fibers or the more compact 200 micron fibers on any given day – or they could be splicing the two fiber sizes together. Fortunately, fusion splicing equipment is evolving right along with cable innovations. A variety of fusion splicers on the market enable 250 and 200 micron splicing, but they are not all created equal. Sumitomo Electric’s Q102-M12+ fusion splicer offers benefits and features that other splicers do not. Tune in to this conversation to learn more.
