  1. A for Military Ships August 2004

  2. What is A? • A is a system of: • tube assemblies • tube connectors • tube management closures • fibre bundles • fibre management closures • cable glands and cable ties • pigtails and patchcords • installation, calibration, verification and testing equipment

  3. What do A networks offer for network operation, repair and maintenance? • A offers: • Easy upgrade path for extension of the network or replacement of fibre bundle • with no disruption to fire seals, cable runs, bulkheads and glands • Fibre Bundles designed for maximum blow length, ease of handling and ruggedisation.

  4. What do A networks offer for network design? • A offers: • Flexibility • Ease of break and branch which allows blowing straight to panels and reduced numbers of panels • Point to point fibre with low loss budget • Designed to fit standard 19” rack configuration for all components • Reduced weight and space requirements

  5. Specifically Designed Break & Branch Boxes and Splice Boxes for BAE Projects 24 way ST Connect Plate 350mm x 200mm x 52mm 48 way ST Connect Plate also available Tube Flexibility Box 500mm x 300mm x 140mm

  6. What features of A tube assemblies are relevant? • A tube assemblies offer: A submission for Naval Medicine Approval is in progress • Sheath and primary tubes manufactured from a compound which is compliant to Specification 61-12-3 • Oxygen index 37%, spec 29% min • Temperature Index 300°C, spec 250 °C min • Toxicity Index, NES 713 0.8, spec 5 max • Smoke Index, NES 711 6-10, spec 20 max

  7. What features of A tube assemblies are relevant? • A tube assemblies offer: • 1,2,4,7,10,12,19, 24 LFZH tube bundles • with or without glass reinforcement of sheath • stripe colouring of sheathing is available for system identification • 5/3.5mm primary tube size options which are suitable for 12 fibre bundle installation • 8/5mm primary tube size options which are suitable for up to 18 fibre bundle installation and 3 x 12 multiple fibre bundle

  8. What features of A fibre bundles are relevant? A fibre bundles will operate within all network protocols listed in the Statement of requirements: • 2,4,8,12 fibre bundles fully qualified for operating temperature range of -40 °C to +60°C • G652 and G652c options • 50/125, OM2 Multimode fibre based on Infinicor 600 • 50/125, OM3 Multimode fibre based on Infinicor SX+ • 62.5/125 OM1 Multimode fibre based on Infinicor 300 • Hybrids of any combination of fibres within the bundle

  9. What features of A fibre bundles are relevant? A fibre bundles can offer: • 2,4,8 or 12 fibre bundles fully qualified for operating temperature range of -40 °C to +60°C • G652 and G652c options • 50/125, OM2 Multimode fibre based on Infinicor 600 • 50/125, OM3 Multimode fibre based on Infinicor SX+ • 62.5/125 OM1 Multimode fibre based on Infinicor 300 • Hybrids of any combination of fibres within the bundle

  10. What features of A fibre and tube management are relevant? A, all components of the fibre and tube management system have • successfully undergone 70g shock testing in Rosyth Naval Dockyard in February 2004 with continuous data streaming during shock • space efficient and functional design • been deployed on Type 45 destroyer • pigtails and patchcords will be sheathed with the same material as tube assemblies.
