Fibre optics deployed in military applications take the form of highly engineered interconnect harnesses. Tactical connectors accommodate multiple ruggedized fibre cables and utilize precision contacts, or termini, sometimes combined with expanded beam technology as the primary mechanism for aligning and connecting optical fibres.
In so many military applications fibre optics are employed as replacements or upgrades to existing copper conductor cable harnesses servicing existing black-box flight equipment, weapon systems, surveillance cameras and sensors. Also some civil fibre optic communications need to be able to withstand heat, cold rain and other environmental abuse.
Exposed applications such as wireless fibre optic radio network on utility poles, as disaster recovery and as video camera network for remote monitoring. Optotec is proud to satisfy severe performance standard fibre assembly on civil and on peace-keeping military applications.
