Fiber Optic Cable Assembly (FOCA) Test Set

Measures Optical Continuity of Fiber Optic Cable Assemblies

Systems that employ FOCA components, such as the AN/AAQ-45 Distributed Aperture Infrared Countermeasures (DAIRCM), require such testing to be performed during flight-line installation and troubleshooting. The FOCA Test Set includes a series of FOCA adapters that integrate with a standard laser source (580 XL) and fiber-optic power meter (560 XL) from Greenlee.

Highlights:

• Verifies optical continuity of the FOCA for the AN/AAQ-45
• Provides FOCA adapter cables to enable operation with standard fiber-optic continuity testers (Greenlee)
• Eye safe light source compatible with FOCA from AN/AAQ-45
•  Validated by US Government for flight-line AN/AAQ-45 FOCA continuity testing

Applications:

• Initial installation of FOCA
• Periodic maintenance of FOCA
• Troubleshooting malfunctions
