Dependable fibre solutions for harsh environments

Dependable Fibre Solutions for Harsh Environments

Universal Networks are fibre deployable experts specialising in the design and delivery of custom made, rugged fibre solutions. With over 25 years of experience, we have worked with a variety of companies operating in some of the most challenging environments, including both the MOD and affiliated companies to the defence industry. Requirements commonly centre around the need for high performance, easily maintainable field deployable solutions that are built to withstand the most punishing conditions. In addition, we have also installed permanent cabling systems on military bases and test areas.

UNCOMPROMISED DEPENDABILITY

Utilising an OCC military approved cable in conjunction with rugged Neutrik connectors and a US Army approved MARS cable reel, we can create a lightweight, robust and dependable solution designed to withstand the challenging conditions of a military or any other harsh environment.

STRONG & ROBUST CABLE

Military certified fibre optic cables optimised to withstand the strain of cable pulls, high tensile loading and severe crush occurrences associated with use in harsh environments.

In accordance with MIL-PRF-85045/8A*, and in reference to CECOM A3159879E*, the cables are compliant in meeting specification requirements for several parameters including, crosstalk, thermal shock, crush and cable twist bending.
