OCC at DSEi 2011

DSEi 2011, the world’s largest fully integrated defense and security exhibition, kicked off Day 2 today in London, England.  With over 1,300 exhibitors present, OCC is very excited to be part of this show and we are looking forward to demonstrating to attendees some of the innovative defense and military grade products and solutions OCC has to offer.

Yesterday, OCC announced that we have been approved once again by the United Kingdom Ministry of Defence (MoD) as a one of the few cable manufacturers to be a fully qualified supplier of Def-Stan 60-1, Part 3 ground tactical fibre optic cable, meeting all military requirements.  We are also the only fibre optic cable manufacturer currently with a U.S. Department of Defense MIL-PRF-85045/8A certification issued by the U.S. DoD, Defence Logistics Agency. This is a great achievement by OCC and we are very excited to have the opportunity to talk to customers and exhibitors at DSEi about the exceptional advantages that come from using OCC fibre optic cable some of the newest and upcoming products they can expect to see from OCC..

One of the key products our staff will be demonstrating at DSEi is our new Pierside Connectors.  The OCC Pierside style of multi-channel fibre optic connectors are designed to enable “genderless” mating capabilities, without regard for male or female gender configuration of the interfacing connector to which it is mated.  This genderless characteristic allows cable assemblies with hermaphroditic plugs on both ends to be deployed without concern for orientation (male or female), making it an ideal choice for fast-paced military applications.

Unlike other connectors, the OCC Pierside family offers users the most comprehensive complement of connector options available, including replacement dust caps, strain relief receptacles and 90° plugs, etc.  Available in either single-mode, multimode or a combination of both, the design is compliant to the Commercial Item Description (CID) standard issued by the Naval Sea Command.

We hope that if you are attending DSEi 2011 you will stop by our booth (#S10-149) to learn more about our products and why OCC continues to be internationally recognized for pioneering the design and production of fiber optic cables in the most demanding military field applications.
