ESCC Standards, evaluation and qualification of optical fiber connectors for space application
- Author:
Frederic Taugwalder
Fiber optic assemblies have been used for more than fifteen years in space applications and this paper presents the work accomplished so far by Diamond toward standardizing and qualifying components for these products under a ESA contract. After a summary of the flight heritage which involved Diamond on some occasion, the status of ESCC specification standards is presented together with a comparison to IEC commercial standards.
