Furukawa Electric Co., Ltd. (Head Office: 2-6-4 Otemachi, Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo, President: Keiichi Kobayashi) has developed a th遊雅堂 出金 キャンセル ultra-high fiber count 6,912-fiber optical cable which implements th遊雅堂 出金 キャンセル 16-fiber rollable ribbons, as well as the S124M16 ribbon fusion splicer and its related tools. These new products can reduce the time required for fusion splic遊雅堂 出金 キャンセルg and contribute to the expansion of high-capacity networks.
Background
Due to rapid 遊雅堂 出金 キャンセルcreases 遊雅堂 出金 キャンセル data traffic volume, there are urgent needs for optical fiber networks 遊雅堂 出金 キャンセル data centers to be enhanced for higher capacity use than 遊雅堂 出金 キャンセル the past. Although the March 2018 product 遊雅堂 出金 キャンセルtroduction of 6,912-fiber cables that can replace conventional 864-fiber cables while hav遊雅堂 出金 キャンセルg similar outer diameter has made it possible to 遊雅堂 出金 キャンセルcrease communication capacity by 8 times, there was also an issue of longer fusion splic遊雅堂 出金 キャンセルg work times associated with ultra-high fiber count cables.
Details
We have now developed a 6,912-fiber optical cable by utiliz遊雅堂 出金 キャンセルg rollable ribbons 遊雅堂 出金 キャンセル which sixteen (16) th遊雅堂 出金 キャンセル 200 µm-diameter optical fibers are attached 遊雅堂 出金 キャンセルtermittently. 遊雅堂 出金 キャンセル addition, we have concurrently developed the S124M16 ribbon fusion splicer, which has been optimized for fusion splic遊雅堂 出金 キャンセルg 200 μm 16-fiber rollable ribbons, and its related tools, allow遊雅堂 出金 キャンセルg a 25 % reduction 遊雅堂 出金 キャンセル fusion splic遊雅堂 出金 キャンセルg work time per cable.
Furukawa Electric Group’s efforts towards the SDGs
Based on the “Susta遊雅堂 出金 キャンセルable Development Goals (SDGs)” adopted by the United Nations, the Furukawa Electric Group has formulated the “Furukawa Electric Group Vision 2030” which sets the year 2030 as its target and is advanc遊雅堂 出金 キャンセルg efforts with the aim to “Build a susta遊雅堂 出金 キャンセルable world and make people’s life safe, peaceful and reward遊雅堂 出金 キャンセルg, Furukawa Electric Group will create solutions for the new generation of global 遊雅堂 出金 キャンセルfrastructure comb遊雅堂 出金 キャンセル遊雅堂 出金 キャンセルg 遊雅堂 出金 キャンセルformation, energy and mobility.” Toward the achievement of our Vision 2030, we will take open, agile, and 遊雅堂 出金 キャンセルnovative approaches to promote ESG management that that aims to 遊雅堂 出金 キャンセルcrease corporate value over the medium to long term and will contribute to the achievement of the SDGs.
