TRITEC has announced a large contract with the NATO Communications and Information Systems School (NCISS).
This deal consisted of several FASE II fusion splicing kits, along with test equipment to test the sensitivity of optical transmitters and receivers.
The NATO CIS School, based in Italy, provides formal training to qualify civilian and military NATO personnel to operate and maintain NATO's communications and information systems. The school prides itself on the quality of its training. The training is very intense, as each course covers both singlemode and multimode optical fiber installation and testing over a two-week period. As a maximum of six delegates attend each course, the tutors are able to devote a significant amount of time to the trainees. This emphasis is most evident during the practical element of the course, when tutors are able to carefully observe each student during the splicing procedure.
"The contract is beneficial to NCISS as the FASE II completes a full range of fusion splicers, as previously only more expensive and sophisticated machines were used on the courses," says Jonathan Hunt, international sales and marketing manager for TRITEC. "It was also equally important that TRITEC could now be represented alongside the competition, showing the FASE II as a capable fusion splicer in both lab and field conditions."
TRITEC is based in the United Kingdom. For more information visit www.tritec.biz.
