Transcript:

With the 41S, you can achieve splice analysis never before seen in an act of cladding, alignment splicer, and pairing the 41S with the superior cleaving efficiency of the Bluetooth-enabled CT-50 creates a powerful combination to better serve your splicing applications. Just as the 70S+ delivers the highest quality splices and analysis in the market with core alignment technology, the 41S outperforms any available active cladding alignment splicer by utilizing core sensing technology. It senses fiber cores with warm splice imaging to deliver splice loss estimates more accurately than those based solely on cladding alignment.

The 41S accelerates your productivity with a 6-second splice time and a 25-second heat time. With the 41S centering splice protectors over splice points is easy. Downtime is minimized with an extended-life battery capable of up to 200 splice and heat cycles. While the long-life electrodes can last up to 5000 splices and require no tools to replace. The carrying case features an expandable work tray and the 41S easy-to-use 5inch touchscreen monitor displays the navigation menu clearly even in direct sunlight.

The portable 41S is ruggedized for shock, raid and dust resistance. To make your work easier and more efficient. The 41S analyzes fiber clean end shapes and uses its Bluetooth connection to signal the CT-50 to automatically rotate its blade when the current blade position is expanded. The cleaver blade can also be advanced manually with the simple touch of a button and the easy-to-read blade position indicator clearly shows the selected position. Surpassing the CT-30s blade life of 48,000. The CT-50s blade can yield up to 60,000 single-fiber cleaves or 5,012 fiber ribbon cleaves. The CT-50 can also accommodate longer strip fibers than the CT-30 and its built-in scrap collector conveniently stores fiber shards until they can be safely discarded to reduce downtime and operating costs. The CT-50s fiber clamps and blade can easily be replaced by users in the field. And as an industry first, the durable CT-50 can withstand severe shock from all directions, including drops up to 76 centimeters. Backed by the best service team in the industry. The 41S splicer and CT-50 cleaver work together to enable you to achieve optimal splice analysis and cleaving efficiency in your splicing applications.
