To support its migration to fiber optic technology in aeronautical applications, the US Navy has awarded kSaria Corp. of Wilmington, Mass., a Small Business Technology Transfer contract to develop two devices for testing and repairing fiber optic cables that are deployed in harsh military environments. The measurement-quality jumpers will be used to test fiber optic links, and the military-grade splicing tools, to repair the cables. The Navy selected kSaria based on its automated approach to cable production.
