Fusion Splicers & Accessories
90S+
Single-fibre core alignment fusion splicer
The 90S+ is bristling with new and enhanced features specifically developed to help you work faster and with greater precision.
Setting a new standard for fusion splicers.
Packed with an array of automated features and expertly-developed technology, the 90S+ always delivers exceptional results.
The 90S+ makes the splicing process faster and simpler because it has been designed by our engineers, for engineers like you: this is a core alignment splicer with you at its core. It has been conceived and built to enable you to work faster, with exceptionally precise results and unparalleled ease of use.
Fujikura has been at the forefront of fibre optic splicing technology since its inception. As the technology evolved in the 1970s, we were pushing it forwards. We continue to do the same thing today, which is why the 90S+ is packed with features to ensure it delivers optimal results every time.
Active Fusion Control and Active Blade Management—headline Fujikura technologies—play a significant role in ensuring consistent low loss results, but there’s even more to this machine. With its intelligent design and market-first automated features, including the wind protector and fibre retention clamps, the 90S+ is also our fastest ever core alignment splicer. To make the most of that speed, the 90S+ makes things fast and intuitive. Intuitive operation comes from thoughtful design – a new internal structure which matches the protection sleeve to the fusion splice point, ensuring that successful splicing is accomplished without the need for the user to touch the 90S+ once the splice process has started.
Fast and intuitive
Intuitive operation means the user does not need to touch the 90S+ once the splice process has started.
Every splice optimised
The 90S+ is packed with proprietary Fujikura technologies which provide a powerful, intuitive users experience and consistent low-loss results.
Automated features
The automated features of the 90S+ are customisable to suit your preferred workflow. This is a splicer that makes splicing faster and more convenient, while still delivering low loss results.
It's tough
The 90S+ is made from precision machined metal and thermoplastic parts and has impact protection from its rugged rubber-derived bumpers.
Adaptable
Our iconic yellow case functions as a workstation which adapts to your workspace. An adjustable 4.9-inch colour TFT touch screen ensures perfect operation in all lighting conditions.
User-friendly
90S+ electrodes come as an assembly and don’t require a screwdriver to replace. When it comes to lighting, as the sheath clamp opens on the opposite side of the illumination lamp, the sheath clamp area is illuminated without shadow.
Active Fusion Control Technology
The 90S+ analyses both cleave end faces and applies optimal fusion control to deliver a significant reduction in splice loss and less chance of having to rework splices. It also uses real-time fusion parameter control by analysing the fibre brightness during splicing – contributing to stable, low-loss results.
Automated features, faster results
The automated features of the 90S+ are fully customisable to suit your preferred workflow.
The 90S+ boasts an array of automatic features which make the splice process faster and more convenient, while delivering exceptional low-loss results. This is a splicer which allows you to complete the entire splicing process from splicing to heating, without touching the machine and only moving the fibre. The automatic wind protector makes an obvious contribution here, but it can also be used manually.
The fibre retention clamps also support automated operations. When the sheath clamps open automatically after splicing, the fibre retention clamps gently hold the spliced fibre to prevent risk of breakage. The retention clamps release when the fibre is lifted by the operator.
Active Blade Management Technology
The 90S+ and CT50 cleaver are equipped with wireless data connectivity. This capability provides automatic cleaver blade rotation when the 90S+ judges that the blade is worn. The 90S+ displays the remaining blade life and informs the user when a blade height change, blade position change, or new blade is required. The 90S+ can simultaneously connect with up to two CT50 cleavers.

NOTES
[1] Cleave length range depending on fibre type. 5 to 16mm: 125μm cladding diameter and 250μm coating diameter. 10 to 16mm: 125μm cladding diameter and 400 or 900μm coating dia. [2] Measured with a cut-back method after splicing the same type of fibre. The average splice loss changes depending on the environmental condition and fibre characteristics. [3] Measured at room temperature. The definition of splice time is from the fibre image appeared in LCD monitor to the estimated loss displayed. The average splice time changes depending on the environmental conditions, fibre type, and fibre characteristics. [4] Measured at room temperature with the AC adapter. The heat time is defined from the start beep sound to the finish beep sound. The average heat time changes depending on the environmental conditions, sleeve type and battery pack condition. In addition, since the heating operation is constantly optimised, the average heating time changes depending on the usage conditions of the fusion splicer. [5] The electrode life changes depending on the environmental conditions, fibre type and splice modes. [6] Test condition (1) Splice and heat time: 1 minute cycle. (2) Using the splicer power save settings, subject to our testing condition. (3) Using a non-degraded battery. (4) At room temperature. The battery capacity changes when testing with different conditions from the above. [7] The battery capacity decreases to a half after approx. 500 discharge and recharge cycles. The battery life is shortened further when using outside of the storage temperature range, operating temperature range, if completely discharged by storing for a long time without recharging.
