FIBER OPTIC COMPONENTS WITH NEW STANDARDS FOR OPTICAL CONNECTORS FOR SECURITY-CRITICAL APPLICATIONS

This project is funded with state support from the Technology Agency of the Czech Republic and the Ministry of Industry and Trade of the Czech Republic under the TREND Program.

Grant provider: TA ČR – Technologická agentura České republiky
Project number: FW06010161

Title: Optical fiber components with new optical connector standards for security-critical applications

Project duration: 01/2023-12/2025

Project participants:

Czech Technical University in Prague
OPTOKON Kable Co., Ltd., s.r.o.

Cíl:

The project aims to achieve five binding results. Two prototypes of measuring stations PRO1 (implementation of an 8-channel measuring station), PRO2 (implementation of a 16-channel measuring station), PRO3 (optical cable prototype), PRO4 (TEST-SET handheld tester) and verified optical cable production technology (OVT - Optical Cable Production). The results of PRO1 and PRO2 are supporting results for measuring the properties of optical cables to achieve the results of PRO3 and OVT.

The main objective is to produce the PRO3 and OVT prototypes, which are a new type of optical cable designed for new interconnection systems for use in data centers. The unique feature of the optical cable lies in the completely unique minimization of the dimensions of all components used and the resulting maximum utilization of the capacity of standard data racks.
