S-22 Multicore Splicer

The Shinho S-22 fully automatic Multicore Fibre (MCF) fusion splicer is specifically engineered to handle the complexities of 2, 4, 6, 7, and 8-core fibres. By combining dual-mode alignment and real-time precision, it delivers the low-loss performance required for next-generation space-division multiplexing (SDM) networks.

Multicore fibres require perfect rotational and spatial alignment. The S-22 simplifies this complex process through:

• Dual Fiber End-View Imaging: A patented technology that provides a direct view of the fiber end-faces for unmatched alignment accuracy.
• Comprehensive Core Support: Seamlessly splice 2, 4, 6, 7, and 8-core fibers with specialized identification markers for fast and easy setup.
• Profile/End-View Dual Alignment: Utilises both PAS (Profile Alignment System) and direct end-face viewing to ensure every core is perfectly matched.
• Automated Workflow: Features a smart wind-proof cover that can open and close automatically to accelerate the splicing cycle.

Applications

• Next-Gen Telecom: Deployment of Space-Division Multiplexing (SDM) networks.
• Cloud Data Centers: Ultra-high-density interconnects using MCF.
• Academic Research: Advanced photonics and multi-core signal propagation studies.
• High-Bandwidth Sensing: Industrial and structural sensing using multi-channel fibers.
