Optellios Technology Protects NORAD/USAF Cheyenne Mountain Complex
Optellios Inc. recently announced at ISC East that it has successfully deployed its FiberPatrol FP5100 system for the protection of fiber optic communication lines within the NORAD/USAF Cheyenne Mountain Complex in Colorado Springs, Colo.
The FiberPatrol system, which actively monitors physical network pathways against intrusion, was installed as a joint effort between Optellios Inc. and a national defense contractor already operating on site.
“Our team exceeded the demanding performance and technological criteria for securing critical fiber-optic communication routes within the complex.” said Jay Patel, CEO of Optellios. “We are proud to do our part in protecting our nation’s critical infrastructures. We will be continuing our efforts to provide highly reliable and advanced products based on our patented technology.”
Final acceptance of the Cheyenne Mountain system was in April, marking the conclusion of a rigorous long term testing and performance certification process.
