Abstract:

This report covers the first quarter of the Manufacturing Methods and Technology Program for Ruggedized Tactical Fiber Optic Cable. The scope of this quarters effort, as reported herein, includes the following tasks and achievements 1 Cable Process Optimization Selection and ordering of polyurethanes for cable jackets, and Fabrication and optical testing of the first engineering sample 2 Facilitization High speed strander setup and operation, Extruder setup, and Fiber optic measurement station design and 3 Secondary Performance Milestones 1st sample cable induced attenuation measurements. In addition to reporting progress on these milestones the report covers any revisions or improvements in process, equipment, tooling manufacturing flow and specifications. Key personnel on the program are identified. The program milestones for the next quarter are listed. Author
