In addition to the emerging 4CH MIL-DTL-83526 solutions, OCC also manufactures a 6-channel version of the B shell-size MIL-DTL-83526/16 and MIL-DTL-83526/17. The Shell Size C TFOCA/16, /17 and /18 utilize standard MIL-PRF-29504/14 PINs and split sleeves captive to the removable Insert Cap, to provide 2 additional channels, for a maximum of 6. This innovative design enables 6-channel density within the same TFOCA/17 plug and TFOCA/18 receptacle bodies. Plug-to-plug assemblies are available in configurations of 2, 4 and 6 channels, fabricated with 2, 4 and 6 fiber military tactical cable. Receptacle assemblies are available in Jam Nut (TFOCA/17-C) or Flange Mount (TFOCA/17-C) configurations and accommodates a choice of MIL ST, COTS ST, SC, FC, LC or MT-RJ pigtails. These style fiber optic assemblies can only be sold to the United States Government or to contractors servicing the United States Government.

The OCC EZ-MATE family of hermaphroditic-style fiber optic connectors provides the most comprehensive solution for harsh, deployable mobilized communications systems. The EZ-MATE Interconnection offers the same proven technology used in advanced military communication systems coupled with a simplified interface capable of “blind mating.” With a variety of options, the EZ-MATE provides ruggedized connectivity in the most challenging environments. Hermaphroditic connectors are designed for quick deployment and gender-independent connectivity, allowing the end user to unreel fiber cable without regard for male or female ends. The hermaphroditic design enables the transmission path to maintain polarity even with multiple cable segments daisy-chained together to extend the distance of the deployable system. • Easy, quick connections. The field-convertible hermaphroditic plug design allows for it to be converted to an in-line receptacle or back to plug within seconds. This enables plug-to-plug assemblies to be connected end-to-end without regard for male or female ends. The integrated “push-pull” system allows operators to terminate EZ-MATE plug and receptacles with ease. • Simple to use. Hard to break. In addition to the EZ-MATE’s user-friendly interface, the connector will resist extremely harsh mechanical and environmental conditions, including high vibration, fluid immersion, mechanical stress and thermal shock, and continues to operate under extreme tension loading when used with OCC tactical cable. Its ability to “blind-mate” is ideal for applications that require thousands of mating cycles. The enhanced Kevlar® retention system supports high cable tensile loading without loss of optical signal. • A variety of options to fit any application. Available for 2- to 24-channels, EZ-MATE allows maximum flexibility to accommodate specific applications. Each of the two shell sizes features a diverse set of receptacle configures to solve almost any application.

OCC’s Modular Advanced Reel System (MARS®): Unlike traditional metal-style reels, MARS is a lightweight, modular system constructed of an impact modified polymer that is easily transported. It is ideal for applications where cable needs to be deployed and reeled in quickly and stored efficiently. MARS also offers a variety of deployment options, including optional frames, backpacks, shipping cases, and cable acquisition platforms. This enables customers to meet the demands of diverse applications and uses with one modular reel and accessories platform. The OCC MARS reel can be used with simple deployable axles, or with integrated A-frames, cable acquisition cradles, transit case systems, tripods, bumper mounts, various backpacks, backpacks with fiber optic slip rings, or cartridge systems. The MARS reel, itself, incorporates options for fiber optic cleaning kits, flip-out handle, 30-ft. built-in divider, connector cradle design, and stackable features. All of these attributes (with a lower weight than common reel systems) make MARS the most advanced fiber optic reeling system available in today’s market.
