Fujikura has developed an invisible optical fiber for indoor cabling in collaboration with NTT Access Service System Laboratories at the request of Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Corporation (NTT). This invisible optical fiber, which is transparent in color and developed for FTTH applications, is suitable for installation inside indoor conduits or simply on the wall without any cover. Existing cables for indoor applications are strikingly noticeable and spoils the aesthetic beauty of interior design.Fujikura's invisible optical fiber perfectly matches with the interior, irrespective of the wall-color. Ever since the introduction by Nippon Telegraph and Telephone East Corporation and Nippon Telegraph and Telephone West Corporation in July, 2015, this new indoor cabling solution has been getting favorable reviews in its excellent appearance.In addition, NTT has received 2015 Good Design Award (raw material and structural component /production, development and production technology/production method), or G Mark, for this invisible optical fiber. This transparent and invisible optical fiber, which looks similar to a fishing line, ensures harmonious cabling with the interior surroundings.

Current cable clamps can be used as-is
１. Thinness and transparent color make the fiber invisible and harmonious with interior walls of various colors.
３. The fiber is suitable for invisible cabling with a small bending radius on the corner of walls due to its 0.9 mm diameter round structure and ITU-T G.657 B3-compliant hole-assisted fiber (HAF).
２. The fiber can be installed on outside of a house as well as inside as it is covered with a weatherproof, transparent outer sheath.
４. The fiber can be installed through door-gaps using a dedicated transparent tube.
５. The fiber can be stripped down into a 0.25 mm fiber using commercially available tools and can be terminated with a field-installable connector using a special attachment.

Fujikura News
Fujikura's heat pipes are used for melting snow using the heat of the earth as reusable energy as well as for dissipating heat from mobile devices including notebook PCs and smartphones and cooling them. The heat pipe is suitable for melting snow on sidewalks, entrances to facilities and parking lots as this product is laid in the ground on which snow accumulates. The number of the installation of the equipment is increasing every year as it is an environmentally-friendly clean energy snow melting system.(*Product for Japan domestic only.)

Snow Melting Heat Pipe
Mass Production of Vehicle-mounted Connector for Fast Charging
Fujikura has developed a vehicle-mounted connector for fast charging of CHAdeMO-compatible electric vehicles (EVs) and launched the mass production.In recent years, more and more countries of the world have been controlling CO2 emissions from vehicles. Accordingly, low-CO2-emission electric vehicles (plug-in hybrid vehicles, electric vehicles) will spread faster than ever.There are two types of systems for charging electric vehicles. One is a normal-speed charging system, and the other is a fast charging system. The normal-speed charger is used at home, which allows several to a dozen or so hours to charge. The fast charger capable of charging up to 80% of capacity in 30 minutes is used for charging in a short time in public places including rest areas of highways and convenience stores. Our new product is for use in fast charging.The procedure of charging is similar to that of filling up at a self-service gas station. Users themselves connect the connector of a charger, which is equivalent of a gas nozzle, to the vehicle-mounted connector. However, the challenge was that the amount of force needed to connect was quite a lot.We have set a goal of developing an easy-to-connect product, which offers female users greater ease without applying much force, to keep pace with the spread of electric vehicle use.We analyzed insertion forces needed at the time of connection opperation. We have successfully cut down by over 30% insertion force of our connector compared to other company's conventional product by shifting the timing of maximum reaction force applied to each part of the connector. We will continue to develop products to meet the needs of users.
