Features
Preventative Maintenance
Its Preventive Maintenance feature enables users to be alerted of upcoming repairs or consumable replacement, thus reducing unexpected downtime. SumiCloud™*3 supports this function with wireless LAN connectivity*4.
Quick Mode
The Q102-CA+ can splice in 5 seconds in Quick Mode, and has an improved heating time of 8 seconds.
Reduced Power Consumption
In addition to a variety of highly regarded functions inherited from its predecessor, such as the lightweight and compact design and shock-proof, dust-proof, and drip-proof frame, the Q102-CA+ saves power consumption by 7% with a newly employed heat-resistant material, thereby enabling 320 operation cycles on a full charge.
NanoTune Technology
The Q102-CA+ is equipped with NanoTune™ technology, which greatly improves splicing efficiency and accuracy regardless of operational condition and user skill, with the use of AI algorithms. The Q102-CA+ drastically reduces the need of splice reworks caused by insufficient fiber preparation such as poor cleaving, thus reducing overall costs.
Additional Features
- Fast Splicer with 5-second Splice Time and Dual 9-Second Heaters
- Long-Life Battery for 320 Splice and Heater Cycles Per Charge
- Long-Life Electrodes Up to 6,000 Arcs
- Ruggedized Design for Shock (Drop from 76 cm on 5 Faces), Water and Dust Resistant (IP52)
- 5-inch TFT Color LCD Monitor, Fully Navigational Touch Screen Monitor
