MIL-PRF-85045/18C
TABLE III. Qualification and conformance by similarity to M85045/17 Continued.
NOTES:
1/
Where manufacturers are qualified for M85045/17-01 and are pursuing qualification for M85045/18-01.
2/
Where manufacturers are qualified for M85045/17-01 and M85045/18-01 and have passed the full
conformance inspection (A, B, and C) for M85045/17-01, a partial conformance inspection as specified in
table II is permitted for M85045/18-01.
Manufacturers who are qualified under this specification sheet for multimode fiber cable, M85045/18-01, and
whose single-mode fiber cable passes the tests and inspections specified in table IV are qualified under this
specification sheet for single-mode fiber cable (M85045/18-02). This qualification by similarity is applicable if the
only difference between the previously qualified cable and the cable under test is that the optical fiber has been
changed from a multimode fiber to a single-mode fiber. Testing may be performed on either one or two lengths of
cable, each with a minimum length of 0.5 km. Test order must be observed up to and including the storage
temperature test. If only one cable length is used, the thermal shock test shall be performed after the storage
temperature test.

Where manufacturers are qualified for M85045/18-01 and M85045/18-02 and have passed the full
conformance inspection (A, B, and C) for M85045/18-01, a partial conformance inspection as specified in
table III is permitted for M85045/18-02.
Manufacturers who are qualified for M85045/17-01, M85045/17-02, M85045/18-01, and M85045/18-02 and have
passed the full conformance inspection (A, B, and C) for M85045/17-01 and partial conformance inspection as
specified in table II for M85045/18-01, are considered conforming under this specification sheet for single-mode
fiber cable M85045/18-02.
