The Broadcast market moves many cables in and out of production studios and remote production events. OCC developed the Cartridge System to increase the reliability of handling diverse cables. This stackable reel system minimizes down time and set-up because of its unique configuration. Everything you need is contained in one single unit.

Optical Cable Corporation’s MARS™ Cartridge System is another accessory member of Modular Advanced Reel System specifically designed for fiber optic cable. The MARS Cartridge System offers the most advanced, self-contained, fiber optic reeling system for broadcast, military or deployable communication environments. MARS reels are designed to inter-operate across a full family of reel accessories. The MARS Cartridge system employs many of the same cradle features found in the MARS Cradle system (reel release knob and roller reels) allowing multiple reels to be exchanged within one platform.  For more details and product demonstrations, please visit us at NAB Booth # C10345 in Las Vegas April 15^th-19th.

As more people use their living room as their “movie theatre”, the expectations of high quality and high definition signaling and picture have never been greater. As a result, fiber optic technology plays a key role in bringing unparalleled signal integrity from the studio, arena or sporting event to the home.

OCC’s reputation in providing products for harsh environments fits perfectly into the broadcast industry where down time is not acceptable. We have, and continue to provide, the broadcast market with fiber optic cables that are field-tested to withstand the most extreme handling. OCC’s stadium and arena cables are optimized for the rigors of difficult cable pulls, high tensile loading, and severe crush occurrences and can repeatedly endure the abuse associated with the extreme demands in rapid deployment and retrieval applications. Where standard fiber optic cables are likely to fail, OCC’s broadcast cables are particularly well suited to the harsh environment of field-shoots.

In the coming weeks, OCC will be exhibiting several of our broadcast products at the 2012 NAB show in Las Vegas.  Some of these products include our new MHC II connectors, MARS Reels, Cartridge System, and of course OCC’s line of broadcast cables.  With OCC’s cables, broadcasters have a practical and reliable way of reaping the benefits of high capacity data transmission in challenging environments without the delicacy normally associated with traditional fiber optic cables.
