Fiber optics HUBER+SUHNER offers a broad range of fiber optic cabling solutions for communication that meet the requirements of the defense ground and naval applications. Mobile systems have to be compact, light, robust and resistant to environment influences. On ships only halogen free and self-extinguishing cables are installed to give the highest protection to personnel and equipment in the event of fire. The components as well as the assemblies are tested extensively in HUBER+SUHNER’s test labora- tory and in external labs. The tests are performed according to international and military standards. Typical tests are: • Thermal tests: temperature cycling, humidity, shock • Mechanical tests: tension, bending, crush, impact, vibration, durability • Fire tests: fire propagation, circuit integrity, smoke density, toxic gases • Ingress resistance: water and dust tightness • Fluid resistance: water, oils, fuels, solvents, acids 130
