Rugged fiber-optic cable for aircraft networking and displays introduced by OFS

OFS Fitel LLC in Avon, Conn., is introducing the FlightLinx PLUS rugged fiber-optic cable for inflight entertainment, Internet access, and networking and display systems on commercial aircraft. The cable is for pull-proof termination during harsh aircraft installations because it helps prevent kinking and fiber breakage during and after deployment. FlightLinx PLUS fiber-optic cable is a 1.8-millimeter ruggedized single-jacket cable that meets ARINC 802 without a double jacket.
