Sumitomo
Founded in Japan in 1897, Sumitomo Electric Industries began as a manufacturer of electric wires and has since expanded into sectors such as automotive, energy, electronics, and telecommunications.
Today, the company is recognised as one of the leading fusion splicer brands, with trusted models including the clad alignment T400S for FTTx installations and the core alignment 72C+ for high-end backbone networks.
Sumitomo T-400S
The T-400S is a lightweight, 3-axis active clad-alignment fusion splicer built for FTTx and access network installations. With a 6-second splice time, robust build quality, and user-friendly interface, it delivers consistent results in any field condition.

The T-72C+ brings core-alignment precision and AI-based NanoTune™ technology for the most demanding fibre networks.
It features 5-second splice time, dual ovens, and full dust, shock, and water resistance — perfect for high-performance telecom and data-centre projects.
