Ruggedized Optical Cable (ROC ) Fiber Optic Cable that withstands Extreme Hydrostatic Pressure Cortland is an accomplished provider of custom-made cables. In one cable, we can provide a custom solution for power, signal, and strength. Our engineering background and extensive experience allow us to integrate unique technologies into any cable design, creating cables that cope with even the most demanding environments. High strength cables can contain built-in power conductor signal wires and/or optical fibers. The ability to use any combination of wires or optical fibers into one compact designs makes Cortland an ideal provider of custom built cables. Optical Cables Optical fibers are the perfect choice when a large bandwidth is required. Whether it is a high strength application, or varying the buffer material to cope with higher temperature environments, or anything in between, Cortland can customize optical fibers to improve robustness Developed by Cortland, the Ruggedized Optical Cable (ROC*) is a variant of its patented Protected Optical Cable. These unique cables can be used as stand-alone fiber optic links, or as components in a more complex cable design. ROC* is robust, kink- and crush-resistant, yet flexible and enduring of repeated bending stresses. It is easy to terminate and is small to facilitate handling. Whatever your requirements, Cortland can offer long lengths, different diameters and varying strengths of optical fibers, all custom-built for your application. • Fiber optic cable that withstands extreme hydrostatic pressure • Crush resistant • Kink resistant • Oxidation/corrosion resistant • Sporting events • Security applications • Battle field
