2024 Forecast: Disasters Coming!
In the Shadow of Shannon
The Q102-CA+ offers improved splicing performance, reliability, and overall experience with our new features and technologies, while maintaining all of the industry-leading features of its predecessor, the Q102-CA, including its world-class light and compact frame, quick splicing, and environmental durability.
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. Its Preventive Maintenance feature enables users to be alerted of upcoming repairs or consumable replacement, thus reducing unexpected downtime. SumiCloud™ supports this function with wireless LAN connectivity.
Sumitomo Electric Lightwave (SEL) foresaw the migration to an all optical fiber network as early as 1983 when it first opened its doors. Our dedication to the advancement of fiber optic technology and exceptional service to the customer — then and now — has positioned Sumitomo Electric Lightwave as a recognized leader in the innovation, design, development, and manufacturing of advanced and integrated end-to-end solutions for data center, enterprise, and communication network customers.
These technologically advanced solutions help our customers simplify network complexity, while improving performance, cost savings, and network efficiencies. By drawing on R&D, resources and expertise, both internally and from Sumitomo Electric Industries, we provide a breadth of advanced optical fiber solutions and options that give network managers the freedom and flexibility in network design.
