SHINHO 18S Pro Core-to-Core Alignment Fusion Splicer

Overview

The SHINHO 18S Pro steps up from the 18S with true core-to-core alignment — imaging and aligning the fiber cores directly rather than the cladding — for consistent splice quality across an expanded set of splicing programs that adds a 7–9 second Auto mode alongside the same 4-second fast and 6–7 second standard modes. Typical splice loss on standard single-mode fiber is 0.02dB, with an average of 0.014dB across SHINHO's own splice-loss distribution testing.

It shares the 18S platform's tool-free electrode replacement, auto-flipping 5.0-inch touch display, interlocked windproof cover with automatic open/close heater, and detachable 6800mAh battery (up to 550 splice-and-heat cycles), with Bluetooth 5.0 LE and an optional IoT module for device and data management through the SHINHO app.
