Welcome to the March 2026 edition of the OPTOKON newsletter. This quarter, we highlight our strong start to the year with appearances at WDS in Saudi Arabia, OFC in the USA, BICSI, and Intersec, where we showcased our latest rugged technologies and continued expanding our global presence.

In today’s demanding technical environment, it is no longer enough to simply design a product. To succeed in real-world operation, it must demonstrate durability, reliability, and compliance with required standards and regulations. This is exactly where OPTOKON Testing Division can support you.

In the evolving landscape of autonomous defense, the reliability of a data link is determined by its weakest point. For Unmanned Ground Vehicles (UGVs) operating in unpredictable terrain, standard fiber optic components are often insufficient. To address these challenges, we have developed a fully integrated deployment system designed specifically for vehicle-mounted mobility and extreme environmental resilience.

The latest OPTOKON Newsletter is here as we wrap up the year and look ahead. In this Holiday Edition, we highlight key moments from 2025, including our participation at the Dubai Airshow, EDEX 2025 in Egypt, and the JobStart fair at VŠPJ, where we connected with future talent. We also reflect on our St. Nicholas Day celebration and other milestones that shaped the year.

OPTOKON has been nominated for the 2025 Czech Exporters Awards and has been selected as one of the finalists in the sixth year of this nationwide project. The program highlights successful Czech companies that excel in international markets and demonstrates the strength, innovation and resilience of domestic exporters.

OPTOKON is proud to introduce its portfolio of ruggedized fibre optic connectivity and opto-electronic technologies to Australia’s mining sector. Built to withstand extreme heat, dust, vibration, and shocks, our solutions deliver uninterrupted performance even in the harshest environments.

During the PARTNER 2025 International Defence Exhibition in Belgrade, Serbia, OPTOKON was featured in an interview with DEFENSE HERE, a leading international defense industry media platform.

The doors are open at PARTNER 2025 in Belgrade, one of the region’s leading international defence exhibitions, and OPTOKON is proud to be part of this important event.

SOBRA 2025 has officially opened in Gornja Radgona, Slovenia, and OPTOKON is pleased to be part of this important regional defence and security exhibition. While smaller in scale compared to some of the larger international events, SOBRA offers a unique environment to engage directly with industry professionals and decision-makers

OPTOKON is pleased to announce its participation at SOBRA 2025, the International Fair of Defence, Security, Protection, and Rescue, taking place from 25–27 September in Gornja Radgona, Slovenia. This important regional event brings together leading companies, experts, and professionals from across the defense and security sectors.

The LMRS Nuclear Radiation Sensors are engineered for operations where failure is not an option. Built specifically for uncompromising durability, these sensors feature heavy-duty, ruggedized enclosures designed to shield sensitive internal components from the most severe environmental elements. This robust construction ensures that the units remain operational and protected, regardless of the physical demands of the deployment site.

High-performance connectivity for Unmanned Ground Vehicles (UGV) requires significantly more durability than standard fiber optic cables can provide. Our Tactical Braid Patch Cable is specifically engineered for autonomous systems operating in demanding and unpredictable environments.

OPTOKON introduces SC Shuttered Connector Patchcords designed to enhance safety, reliability, and performance in modern FTTx networks. Developed to meet the growing demands of access networks, these patchcords combine robust construction with user-friendly operation, making them ideal for both installation and long-term operation in the field.
