EXPORT CONTROL AND RoHS COMPLIANCE INFORMATION

Products, services and technologies produced by Specialty Photonics in the United States are subject to the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) administered by the bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) of the U.S. Department of Commerce. It is the policy of OFS and its Specialty Photonics Division to fully comply with the export laws and regulations of the US Government.

Disclaimer: The information provided herein is for informational purposes only
and is not intended to replace the Export Administration Regulations http://www.access.gpo.gov/bis/ear/ear_data.html or to provide legal assistance or advice. The information contained on this page is intended to be used for informational purposes only. Any damages or liability resulting from the use of the information provided herein is not the responsibility of OFS or any of its affiliates or divisions. Any use of information contained herein is strictly without recourse to OFS or to any of its affiliates or divisions and is solely at your own risk.

Prohibited End-Users: US law prohibits the export and re-export of Specialty Photonics products, services and technologies to the US embargoed/sanctioned destinations of Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Sudan, and Syria.

Specialty Photonics products, services and technologies may not be sold, exported or re-exported to any individual or entity, identified by the US Government, as restricted or prohibited. Such individuals and/or entities are normally listed on one of the following lists: Specially Designated Nationals List, Debarred List, Denied Parties List, Entity List, and the unverified list.

Restricted End-Use: Specialty Photonics products, services and technologies are restricted for certain applications (end-uses). For restricted end-use information please visit the current Export Administration Regulations: part 736 – General Prohibitions,
part 744 – Control Policy, and part 746 – Embargoes and other Special Controls.

Product Matrix: The Specialty Photonics’ product matrix is intended to assist you with the classification of our products. The matrix includes the expanded Harmonized Tariff System (HTS) number, the Export Control Classification Number (ECCN), Country of Origin (C/O), and Reason for Control.

Avioptics
Avioptics harsh environment cable optimizes high-performance aircraft and military vehicle applications. The cable design is based on 200 µm fibers and adds coating and strength members especially for the corrosive environments encountered on aircraft, including jet fuel, oil. Solvents, and hydrolytic liquids.
FlightGuide
The FlightGuide family of aerospace fibers and cables offers high temperature and strength in graded-index fiber-based constructions. Multiple coating and cabling layers specialize the cables for military and aerospace use. Some FlightGuide fibers are available sold separately.
HCS
Hard Clad Silica (HCS) was invented by OFS scientists and now serves as the industry standard cladding material for optical glass fibers. HCS cladding imparts unusual strength to fiber and makes it easy to crimp and cleave connectors directly to the fiber using a hand tool in the field instead of more complex epoxy/polish methods.
OASiX
Optical Amplifier Simulation Software from OFS, OASiX is packaged with erbium-doped fibers sold for use in EDFAs. This software and graphical interface allows the designer to plug in modeling parameters shipped with the fiber and begin on-screen simulations. This reduces design time by predicting the performance of EDFA systems including optical components such as filters, isolators, and reflectors.
ST
This connector type features a bayonet-style nut and is commonly used in telecommunications applications.
TruePhase
TruePhase is the name to remember for all of OFS’s non-doped polarization maintaining fibers. These are single mode fibers optimized for different wavelengths and cladding size requirements.
V-System
This easy-to-use connectorization system simply plugs in with a reassuring click. It is available for simplex cables, or with a duplex latch housing for connectorizing zipcord. Connectorizing HCS coated fibers with V-System connectors takes less than 2 minutes per end when using the compatible OFS crimp and cleave kit.
ClearLite
One of the most complete, diverse lines of single-mode optical fiber you can find, ClearLite encompasses several families of photonic fibers, each optimized for different applications: 980, 1310 & 1550, Micro, Specialty Coated, Short Wavelength, and Polarization-Maintaining.
GyroSil
Designed specifically for gyroscopes and similar navigational instrumentation, GyroSil singlemode fiber has a small NA of 0.17 and reduced 80 µm cladding diameter to accommodate the tight bend radii and coiling designs inherent in gyroscopic and sensor applications.
PYROCOAT
PYROCOAT polyimide is our premier fiber coating for high-temperature applications. In recent years, we have further refined the polyimide properties to create new versions of PYROCOAT optimized for steam or chemical resistance. When applied over a hermetic carbon layer, it provides the best protection in the industry against the harshest environments.
UltraSil
Known in the medical industry for years for its ultra low water peak useful for high-power delivery, our UltraSil fibers are made from unique preforms that deliver both low OH and one of the highest NAs achievable with a silica cladding. These fibers are also finding new application in sensing when further coated with high-temperature polyimide.
