Fitel S177A Hand-Held Core-Alignment Fusion Splicer

The new hand-held FITEL S177A incorporates an improved heating design that cuts splice-to-heat time by 40 percent, achieving a 9-second splice time and 37-second heat time.

The unit's T-shaped body design is also 40 percent lighter, weighing only 2.2Kg (4.85 pounds) including battery. Ideal for fast field use, the S177A reduces the fiber length required for splicing by 30 percent. In addition, fiber magnification power is 608X, marking the industry's most powerful rating for a core alignment splicer.

Core alignment splicers have long been the preferred method for CATV installations, backbone networks, specialty fiber applications, and optical components manufacturing largely because of their high accuracy and reliability. The portability of the S177A brings the benefits of core alignment to the growing construction of fiber-to-the-home and other constrained fiber optic cable installations.

The FITEL S177A is easy to operate with its improved graphical user interface (GUI) and includes a transflective LCD screen for a clear view of splicing operations in all conditions, from complete darkness to bright sunlight. Along with AC and DC input power options, the splicer's built-in lithium-ion battery automatically recharges during operation.

Applicable Fibers: SMF, MMF, DSF, NZDSF, EDF. Splicer includes splicer, cover, AC power cord, spare electrode, user manual and carry case.

Most compact, lightweight core-alignment splicer in the industry!
New graphical user interface (GUI) to enhance ease-of-use.
Transreflective LCD allows clear view even in direct sunlight.
Best-in-industry fiber magnification - 608X.
Built-in battery automatically charges when plugged into AC - even when splicing!
