Preface
Description
The Tempo Communications FSP200 Optical Fiber Fusion Splicer is intended to fuse fibers, resulting in low splice loss and
long-term stable splices. Splice loss depends on certain conditions such as fiber preparation, splicing parameters, and fiber
condition.
The FSP200 fusion splicer uses a CDS (Core Detection System), which is also widely known as PAS (Profile Alignment System).
Two cameras sense the center of the core of the fibers, with the fusion splicer then adjusting in the X, Y, and Z dimensions to
automatically and precisely align the two fiber cores. A fusing arc is applied, which then provides the lowest loss fusion splice.
The FSP200 with PAS technology is designed for splicing many types of optical fibers. It is small in size and lightweight, making
it suitable for any operating environment. It is easy to operate, and it splices fast while maintaining low splice loss.
