Impact of Fiber Optics on System Reliability and Maintainability
Abstract
This report documents the effort to develop recommendations and guidelines for system designers and planners to assure reliable, maintainable and supportable use of Fiber Optics (FO) in military systems. This document provides a compendium for agencies within DOD with a tool to address R&M in the design of FO systems. This document will alert designers/planners with respect to 'lesson learned' and 'design do's/dont's' in order to make educated choices in their design process. Keywords: Reliability, Maintainability, Fiber Optic, Failure-mechanisms/modes, Components, Testing, and QA/screening.
