Note- Fiber Optics is a general term used to describe the function where optical energy (i.e., light/laser driven rays) is guided to another location through fiber(s). This group includes Fiber Optic items such as parts, materials and devices used for communications, data transmission, or illumination, Excludes Imaging devices under FSG 65 (medical); hand tools under FSG 51; and electrical, electronic and optical instruments under FSG 66 (instruments).
Additional Information for Attenuators
NATO Supply Class 6006 is a classification within NATO Supply Group 60, which is dedicated to Fiber Optics Materials, Components, Assemblies, and Accessories. Specifically, Class 6006 pertains to attenuators.
Attenuators are devices used in fiber optic communication systems to reduce the power of an optical signal. They are used to control the signal strength and prevent overloading of the receiving equipment. Attenuators are commonly used in various applications, including telecommunications, data centers, and military communication systems.
In the NATO supply classification system, Class 6006 includes attenuators of different types and specifications. This may include fixed attenuators, which provide a constant level of attenuation, and variable attenuators, which allow for adjustable levels of attenuation. Attenuators can be designed for different types of fiber optic connectors, such as SC, LC, or ST.
Attenuators in Class 6006 are typically designed to meet specific military or industry standards, ensuring their reliability and compatibility with other fiber optic components. They may undergo rigorous testing and certification processes to ensure their performance in demanding environments.
When procuring attenuators or related fiber optic components, it is important to refer to the NATO Supply Class 6006 to ensure the correct classification and compatibility with other equipment in the fiber optic communication system.
Please note that the information provided here is a general overview, and specific details may vary depending on the context and requirements of the NATO supply classification system.
