Introduction to Fiber Laser Customer Lab
Fujikura newly built a fiber laser customer lab in Sakura Plant and put it into operation in March, 2014. We have many
customers interested in firsthand experience of fiber lasers. They ask questions such as "What kind of workpiece is
possible with a fiber laser?" and "Can a fiber laser cut and weld this material?" We thus prepared a suitable environment
for various processing experiments and perform demonstrations whenever needed. That helps respond to customer
requests and deepen the customer's understanding of our high performance, high-quality fiber lasers. We will also deal
with various customer needs by offering a broad product lineup of fiber lasers. The products range from a pulsed fiber
laser suitable for micromachining to a high-power kW-class fiber laser suitable for sheet-metal working.

Fujikura has developed a new cable with more flexibility and ease of storage to expand our product lineup of
small-diameter USB 3.0 cables. In the development, we focused on lack of flexibility in multi-conductor cables
constructed of many shielded pair cables to deal with the increase in data traffic. We also used high-frequency
technology and cable manufacturing technology nurtured through the development of smaller diameter cables. In
addition, we put thought into designing materials for the shield layer and jacket to finally succeed in improving the new
cable's flexibility and ease of use. Even when the cable is connected to a wearable device, which has been increasingly
miniaturized, the device is not lifted by the cable. The cable fits unobtrusively on wearable devices such as head mounted
displays to provide more comfort. The terminals of the cable can be customized to customer specifications or signaling
by taking advantages of features of the cable portion.
The cable is expected to be used in robots for FA (factory automation) and medical use as it is suitable for use in a
device's moving part, where mechanical stress is applied.

Fujikura's ILLUMIPANEL used to be adopted in industries such as smartphone, automotive and construction. In addition,
ILLUMIPANEL was first used as illumination in the amusement industry in 2012 and coming into wide use since then.
Fujikura's ILLUMIPANEL is excellent in transparency and enables the specified design to emerge in transparent panel
with surprise when LEDs are turned on. Many of the amusement companies set the panels in front of LCD display and
use to make difference in design. In this industry, Fujikura's product is going popular with the name, ILLUMIPANEL and
the adoptions are rapidly expanding as varied applications.
ILLUMIPANEL offers both high transparency and high luminance required in the amusement industry by utilizing
Fujikura's independently developed dotting technology and such features enables new style of illuminating effects while
keeping visibility to background. Fujikura will continuously develop higher-precision dotting technology and realize new
directions such as switchable design, 3D panel and ultra-high resolution in the future. Fujikura aims to expand the
business in this industry using such competitive technologies.
The amount of wireless communication by cell phones or wireless LANs has been increasing. Consequently, shortages
of radio resources including a lower transmission rate and poor connection have begun surfacing in places like a station
or meeting room with many users. To solve the problem, Fujikura, Advanced Telecommunications Research Institute
International (ATR), and Nara Institute of Science and Technology (NAIST) have been engaged in joint research on a
system. The system is based on 2×2 MIMO (multiple input multiple output) technologies, using an LCX that also serves
as two antennas. Two LCXs are usually needed to double the transmission capacity of an LCX. The research, however,
has theoretically enabled an LCX to have twice the transmission capacity. Fujikura has developed an LCX suitable for
implementing 2×2 MIMO by itself.
The research was conducted under Strategic Information and Communications R&D Promotion Programme (SCOPE
135007001) by the Ministry of Internal Internal Affairs and Communications

World's First Long-distance Large-capacity 500 kV DC OF Submarine Cable Registered as Future Technology Heritage
Fujikura's ±500 kV DC, 3000 m2 PPLP insulation, OF cable was registered as No.00183 Essential Historical Material for
Science and Technology (future technology heritage) of the Center of the History of Japanese Industrial Technology. The
cables for power system interconnection across the Kii Channel were delivered to Kansai Electric Power Co., Inc and
Electric Power Development Co., Ltd. in 1999. They were the world's first long-distance large-capacity ±500 kV DC OF
submarine cables laid in the Kii Channel between Tokushima and Wakayama Prefectures for 50 km. Each cable has the
world's largest power transmission capacity of 1,400 MW. The product was selected and added to the registry of
essential materials to prove Japan's industrial and scientific development by National Museum of Nature and Science. On
September 2, 2014, the conferment ceremony of registry of Essential Historical Materials for Science and Technology
was held in Japan Gallery's lecture hall at National Museum of Nature and Science in Ueno. Fujikura received a certificate
and commemorative plaque from the Director General of the museum, Mr. Yoshihiro Hayashi.
