Micropol strengthens its position in passive fiber optics by the extended framework agreement with The Swedish Defence Materiel Administration, FMV. A cooperation that goes back 30 years and continues on.
When the Swedish Armed Forces enter critical and hostile situations on land, sea or air, it is Micropol’s fiber optic technology that keeps systems connected. The Swedish Defence Materiel Administration, FMV introduced fiber optics to the Swedish Armed Forces in the early 1980’s. Since then Micropol has partnered with FMV in developing passive fiber optic components for extreme environments. Their non-standard and demanding specifications include testing the components for sub-water functionality, as well as battle tank weight exposure.Much of Micropol’s advanced technology that is available for the civil market has its origin from products developed for the Swedish Armed Forces.
A team of researchers presents groundbreaking work at the ICTON 2025 conference in Barcelona, which could significantly improve the real-time protection of fiber optic infrastructure — the very backbone of our connected world.
Micropol is reaching new heights with a clearer positioning that reflects our focus on the defense and critical communication segment.
Micropol Fiberoptic is growing rapidly, with increased sales both in Sweden and internationally. To support our journey and to strengthen our quality department, we welcome Claes Hedbom to Micropol as Quality Manager.
