Fiber Optic Support Requirements

• Initial fleet requirements analysis complete (FY02)– 149 shipboard systems/variants identified as containing optical fiber

– 2669 known fiber optic installations

• Requirements documented in Access database• Fiber Optic systems configurations documented in an

Excel database– To be provided to NWS Earle

• Revised GPETE fleet allowances distributed to fleet for review– No fleet feedback received

– Do we provide to NWS Earle for SPETERL update?

GPETE Allowancing

• Basic fiber optic test equipment allowance – One Multimode Mini OTDR (SCAT 4318)– Two Multimode OLTS (SCAT 4954)– One Leak Detector (SCAT 4319)

• Large installation upgrade– Additional basic allowance

• Basic single mode upgrade – Two Single Mode OLTS/ORLMs (SCAT 4952)

• IMA upgrade– Full blown OTDR

• IMA loaner pool– Additional OTDR (and SM module), basic allowance, and basic SM

upgrade

6/20/2002 - p. 8


GPETE Standard Models

6/20/2002 - p. 9


Fiber Optic MQJs

• AEL development began in March• Separate AEL for multimode MQJs, single

mode MQJs, and single mode enhanced MQJs

• AELs to be completed by the end of summer• Funding shortfall for AEL

6/20/2002 - p. 10


MQJ Allowancing

• Basic Multimode (MM) MQJ allowance – MM ST MQJ set

• M28876 MM shell size 13 MQJ set** upgrade• M28876 MM shell size 15 MQJ set** upgrade• Single mode (SM) ST MQJ set upgrade• M28876 SM shell size 13 MQJ set ** upgrade• M28876 SM shell size 15 MQJ set ** upgrade• IMA Loan Pools

– MM ST MQJ set, MM M28876 shell size 13/15 MQJ set, SM ST MQJ set, Enhanced SM ST MQJ set

• Other MQJs as required**Redefined MQJ sets

6/20/2002 - p. 11


Fiber Optic Repair Kits

• AEL development began in March• One AEL for all fiber optic repair kits• AELs to be completed by the end of summer• No funding for AEL

6/20/2002 - p. 12


New Kit Requirements

• Blown Fiber Technology– BOF support kit (O-level) (contents TBD)– BOF Fiber blowing kit (I-level, shore) (contents TBD)

• Support kit will be added to fiber optic repair kit AEL when defined

• Kits will be funded through SHIPALTS and ECPs

6/20/2002 - p. 13


Kit Allowancing

• Basic kit allowance – ST/SC kit

– ST kits procured before FY00 do not include SC tools and should be supplemented with SC upgrade kit

• M28876 kit upgrade as required• FDDI kit upgrade as required (requirement is going

away)• IMA loaner kits

– ST kit, M28876 kit

• BOF Support kit as required• BOF Blowing kit as required (Shore Sites only)

6/20/2002 - p. 14


Fiber Optic Training

• FO Training was the subject of a separate presentation– Revised course curriculum online at Norfolk, San Diego, and

for MTT– Approximately 600 students trained last year– NTSP undergoing major revision (CNET request)

6/20/2002 - p. 15


Outline


6/20/2002 - p. 16


Initiatives

• Merging of OTDR and Mini-OTDR– Doesn’t appear cost effective unless OTDR requirements

relaxed to Mini level– Continue market surveillance

• Emergency Restoration Kit– FTC recommendation– Contents defined, kit prototyped– Kit to be evaluated on LANT ship

• MQJ cases– Two MQJ cases have been defined– Should these be identified on the MQJ AEL?

6/20/2002 - p. 17


Initiatives (cont)

• 3M reporting of fiber optic actions– New 3M action code proposed to flag fiber optic actions

• SURFLANT Fiber Optic Survey– Inventory of fiber optic support equipment

• NAVSEA/NAVAIR Commonality– NAVAIR requirements being developed– Special NAVAIR OTDR – OLTS under evaluation– Allowancing to be considered soon

• Visual Leak Detector– Under evaluation at NSWC PHD

• Low Cost MQJs– Possible 50% to 70% cost savings– New R&D project

6/20/2002 - p. 18


Outline


6/20/2002 - p. 19


Issues

• Fleet inventory of fiber optic GPETE, MQJs and kits– Current records suspect– SURFLANT survey to address east coast– What about SURFPAC, AIRLANT, AIRPAC, SUBLANT, and

SUBPAC?

• Funding (as always)– Fiber optic support equipment shortfall estimated to be over

$7.7 M ($4.6 M GPETE)
