Military : Advantages

RSL Fiber Systems’ Advanced Lighting System™ provides rugged design flexibility, safety of operation and unparrelled long distance applications when compared to conventional plastic (PMMA) optical fiber systems.

Remote Source Lighting Advantages:

• Illuminators, or light engines, are placed in accessible and easily maintained areas.
• Luminaires, or light emitters, can be remotely located up to 900 ft. from illuminator.
• A single illuminator provides light to multiple luminaires.
• Luminaires are small and maintenance-free, and can be located in hard to reach areas.
• Luminaires can be located in harsh environments without damage or exposing people to elements.
• Improved illumination patterns are distributed through luminaire optics.
• Filters and dimmers in illuminators can:
  • Eliminate emissions
  • Change light colors and intensity
  • Switch instantaneously from white lights to Night Vision Imaging System (NVIS).
