COMWAY C10R Ribbon Mass Fusion Splicer – Splice Up to 12 Fibers at Once
When single-fiber splicing is simply too slow for your project, the COMWAY C10R is the answer. This professional-grade ribbon mass fusion splicer handles 1 to 12 fibers simultaneously, dramatically cutting splice time on high-fiber-count cable installations. Whether you're building out data center trunk cables, high-density metro networks, or long-haul backbone infrastructure, the C10R delivers consistent, reliable splices at a pace that single-fiber machines simply can't match.
Why Choose the COMWAY C10R?
- 1–12 Fiber Simultaneous Splicing: Splice an entire 12-fiber ribbon in one operation — up to 12x faster than single-fiber splicing for high-count cable work
- 8400mAh High-Capacity Battery: Supports 200+ splice and heat cycles per charge, keeping you productive through long field sessions
- 130X Magnification: Dual-axis CMOS camera with 4.1-inch high-brightness color LCD for clear fiber core visibility during alignment
- Anti-Theft Security: Time-delay password protection and ID electrode system to prevent unauthorized use and counterfeit electrodes
- GPS Option: Optional GPS location tracking to protect your investment on job sites
- Versatile Fiber Support: Handles both single fiber and ribbon fiber (1–12 count) in one machine
- Compact & Field-Ready: 1.7kg body weight (2.5kg with battery) in a standard C10-series form factor
Ideal Applications
- Data center trunk cable installation (MPO/MTP ribbon cables)
- High-density metro and campus network fiber deployment
- Long-haul backbone network construction and repair
- Central office and exchange fiber termination
- Any project using 12-fiber or 24-fiber ribbon cable

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is a ribbon fusion splicer and when do I need one?
A: A ribbon fusion splicer splices multiple fibers simultaneously in a single operation. The C10R handles 1–12 fibers at once, making it ideal for high-fiber-count ribbon cable projects like data center trunk cables, metro networks, and long-haul backbone installations where single-fiber splicing would be too slow and costly.
Q: How much faster is the C10R compared to single-fiber splicing?
A: The C10R splices a 12-fiber ribbon in approximately 13 seconds — the equivalent of 12 individual single-fiber splices. On a large project with thousands of fiber splices, this can reduce splicing time by up to 90%.
Q: Can the C10R also splice single fibers?
A: Yes. The C10R supports both single fiber and ribbon fiber (1–12 count), making it a versatile machine for mixed-fiber projects.
Q: What is the splice loss of the C10R?
A: Typical splice loss is SM: 0.05dB, MM: 0.03dB, DS/NZ/NZDS: 0.08dB, BI: 0.05dB. Note that ribbon splicers use cladding alignment, which results in slightly higher splice loss than core alignment — this is standard for all ribbon mass fusion splicers and is acceptable for most high-count network applications.
Q: What warranty does the COMWAY C10R come with?
A: The C10R comes with a 1-year manufacturer warranty. For support or bulk pricing, contact us at info@splicermarket.com.
