Military Fiber Optic cable / ADP Cables

A modern passenger jet has enormous amounts of data flowing through it to support the latest technologies in the cockpit and the passenger cabin. All that data has to be delivered at lightning speed, and that’s why aircraft manufacturers and airlines are turning to optical fiber.

When a cable connection goes bad on some remote mountainside on a dark and stormy night, a skilled technician may be very far away. Connectors are often used in harsh environments — exposed to dirt, dust, mud, water, oil, etc. — and you need to be confident that they will work, over and over. Expanded beam fiber optic connectors provide the solution.

kSARIA Corporation, the world leader in fiber optic connectivity manufacturing technology has been selected by Lockheed Martin to provide fiber optic harnesses for the F35 Lightning II Joint Strike Fighter.

Whether the demand is for Fiber Optic Cable, Wire Harnesses, or RF/Microwave Cable Assemblies, everyone wants their quote within a day or two…Why is it so darn hard to achieve that on a regular basis?

The process of phase matching, and the parameters that affect and control it can be a bit tough to get a handle on and so I thought it may help folks to present a brief explanation of the concept and to highlight some of the key elements of the specsmanship involved.

Photonics, with its virtually infinite bandwidth, electrical noise immunity, small size, low cost, and increased capacity are inserted into a number of military platforms to handle higher data rates and larger traffic volumes. Such increased data rates between the various subsystems drive the interconnect solution to be fiber optics.
