Now, the United States Defense Logistics Agency has certified Optical Cable Corporation as an approved manufacturer of qualified ground tactical fiber optic cables in accordance with MIL-PRF-85045/8A.

This certification was granted after subjecting these fiber optic cable products to an exhaustive series of optical, mechanical, and environmental tests to ensure full compliance to the demanding requirements of the United States military.

Optical Cable Corporation, a MIL-STD-790F certified manufacturing facility, has been providing the United States and allied militaries with ground tactical fiber optic cables for more than 20 years. As a premium manufacturer of military ground tactical fiber optic cables, we are proud to have many of the major worldwide defense agencies as our customers.

With Optical Cable Corporation's newly qualified products, all branches of the military will have access to a full MIL spec ground tactical fiber optic cable for their ground tactical communications applications."
