Sumitomo’s Z1C, Direct Core Monitoring Fusion Splicer which is sold for use in
Vietnam only, has built-in heat shrink oven, 4.1 inch LCD monitor with touch screen
operation, and equivalent to IP52 waterproof and dust proof. The working efficiency
and durability have improved dramatically in the field or factory.

Features
The Z1C’s heater cycle time is only Approx.28 seconds (60mm Fiber protection
sleeves) and a splice cycle of only Approx.7 seconds (Quick mode), the Z1C improves
splicing efficiency and productivity dramatically, thereby reducing labor time and costs
while increasing project and customer service turn-up.
The Z1C’s 4.1 inch LCD monitor with touch screen operation enables to confirm fiber
images easily. The splicer can be operated by touching the icons on the screen. The
working efficiency has improved.
The Z1C has environmental protection equivalent to IP52 waterproof and dust proof.
Also has anti-shock rubbers around the machine to protect the splicer from dropping.
Designed for portability, precision splicing, reliability, and speed — without foregoing
affordability― the Z1C splicer is ideal for splicing applications in the central office or
head end, the feeder portion of the FTTx network where speed in high fiber application
is crucial, and at terminals leading to the final drop to premises or home.

For added convenience and functionality, the Z1C design includes a multi-position
monitor that automatically change its view to accommodate front-to-back and back-to-
front viewing for a vast array of splicing applications. The splicer is RoHS compliant.
Additionally, the splicer’s High–resolution Direct Core Monitoring (HDCM) image
processing software, is used to perform core alignment and estimates splice loss for
creating low-loss optical fiber splices with typical splice loss of less than 0.02dB for
single-mode fiber and less than 0.01dB for multimode. Like other Sumitomo splicers,
the Z1C is manufactured with durable metal rather than plastic materials predominantly
used in the industry.
