Description

The Defense Logistics Agency-Aberdeen, on behalf of the Army Integrated Logistics Supply Center (ILSC) – Supply Chain Management Directorate (SCMD) – Strategic Sourcing Directorate (SSD), intends to acquire Parts to support the Secure Mobile Anti-Jam Reliable Tactical (SMART-T) system.

The 0831-2000 Light Source / Power Meter (LS/PM) kit includes two light sources, one LED, and one Laser, and a Quad Power Meter that reads 850, 1300, 1310, and 1550 wavelengths.

This kit also contains all the MQJ quality reference cables and adapters: two four-channel to ST reference cables one meter in length, and two ST-to-ST reference cables one meter in length, to zero out the LS/PM set-up.
