Press Release Body:
Toronto, ON – GAO Tek Inc. has added the GAO730 Fiber Optic Fusion Splicer to its
product line of fiber optic equipment. It boasts an 8-second fusion splice time,
which is among the fastest times in the world for this type of product. The Sleeve
Shrinking time is also an impressive 40 seconds.
According to ElectroniCast Consultants, (as reported in Lightwave Magazine) the
world consumption of fiber optic fusion splicers for last year was $308 million and
is projected to increase to $440 million by 2013.
GAO Tek’s fiber optic division GAO FiberOptics is positioned to provide a broad
range of fiber optic equipment and instruments to this burgeoning market. GAO offers
high quality products at competitive prices, rapidly delivery and great customer
service.
Fusion splicing maintains a continuos optical waveguide by melting two fibers
together. The key to a successful splice is to provide just enough energy to the
fibers so that the molten core and the cladding do not mix.
Fusion splicing is preferred over mechanical splices for its inherent durability and
strength. The average fusion splice loss for Singlemode fiber is about 0.02dB and
for Multimode 0.01dB. The GAO730 also splices Dispersion Shifted, Non-Zero
Dispersion Shifted, and Erbium Doped fibers. Mechanical splices typically have 0.1
up to 0.3dB loss.

The GAO730 automatically adjusts to environmental conditions by using temperature,
humidity, and pressure sensors to provide constant feedback control to regulate the
fusion arc temperature. This insures uniform quality splicing over a wide range of
atmospheric conditions.

As a world class unit, the GAO730 has the optional capability to communicate in
several languages, including: English, Spanish, Chinese, Korean and Russian.
