Brugg Cables launches their next generation tactical fiber optic cables for increased network capacity – Shown at IDEF 2013

Working closely with leading military services in Europe and overseas, Brugg Cables is challenged to find new innovative cable solutions to meet the needs of harsh field environment communications. The outcome is the new smart BRUfield tactical cable solution, which enables faster deployment and enhancement of your network perimeter.

BRUfield Tactical Fiber-optic Cable

The new BRUfield tactical fiber-optic cable is a very robust dielectric cable distinguished by its very small diameter (3.8mm only) and its very low weight (16kg/km only). With the same size reel you are using with your standard tactical fiber cables, you can deploy double the distance as of today using the BRUfield cable. Furthermore soldiers would not suffer under the heavy weight since the BRUfield cable is only half the weight of standard tactical cables. Finally the BRUfield cable meets exceptional specifications, which out-performs standard dielectric cable types.

The new BRUfield fiber-optic cable is available as complete cable assembly’s mounted with the connectors of your requirement and wound on the reel of your choice, like hand-reels, backpack or vehicle mounted reels up to lengths of 10’000 meters.

As an additional highlight you can explore together with our staff new fields with the tactical hybrid cable BRUpowermil and its range of applications for simultaneous data and power transmission over short as well as long distance.

Distributed Fiber Optic Sensing Solutions

Furthermore we would explain and show our Distributed Fiber Optic Sensing Solutions for security. These fiber optic systems enables the surveillance and monitoring of assets along every meter of remote facility perimeters as national borders, military camps, arsenals, airports, or other important infrastructure, long-distance pipelines, power lines, railway tracks and construction sites.

Brugg Cables will present the new cable at IDEF,
on Swiss Pavilion Hall 2 at Stand n° 289, Istanbul taking place from May 7th – 10th, 2013.
