Welcome to the June 2020 edition of the OPTOKON newsletter, which comes at a time when for some countries, the effects of the global coronavirus pandemic are easing. By taking precautions in accordance with the Emergency Declaration of the Czech Republic and adapting production to fulfil contracted orders, our manufacturing plants have been operating at 100% staff and we continue to work on orders and development projects.You can find the message from Jiří Štefl, the General Director of the OPTOKON Group, evaluating the the audited result of our last fiscal year 2019.

On 9.6.2020, RNDr. Jiří Hynek, the President of the Defence and Security Industry Association of the Czech Republic (DSIA), accompanied by Ing. Kristýna Stejskalová, visited OPTOKON headquarters in Jihlava.
During his visit, Dr. Hynek was shown the production of passive and active elements as well as the newly built testing laboratory that provides services in the field of mechanical testing of cables and accredited temperature measurement containing equipment for EMC tests.

OPTOKON is proud to announce its participation in the upcoming IDEF 2025 International Defense Industry Fair, where we will present our latest innovations in ruggedized communication systems, advanced fiber optic technologies, and tactical solutions. As a trusted partner in defense and security, we look forward to engaging with industry professionals and showcasing our capabilities on an international stage.

OPTOKON proudly participated in the 9th annual Signal Corps Conference, held from June 4–5, 2025, at the Bečva training area near Lipník nad Bečvou. This important event continues to serve as a strategic platform for experts across defense, cybersecurity, and communications technology to collaborate and exchange ideas.

The LMRS Nuclear Radiation Sensors are engineered for operations where failure is not an option. Built specifically for uncompromising durability, these sensors feature heavy-duty, ruggedized enclosures designed to shield sensitive internal components from the most severe environmental elements. This robust construction ensures that the units remain operational and protected, regardless of the physical demands of the deployment site.

High-performance connectivity for Unmanned Ground Vehicles (UGV) requires significantly more durability than standard fiber optic cables can provide. Our Tactical Braid Patch Cable is specifically engineered for autonomous systems operating in demanding and unpredictable environments.

OPTOKON introduces SC Shuttered Connector Patchcords designed to enhance safety, reliability, and performance in modern FTTx networks. Developed to meet the growing demands of access networks, these patchcords combine robust construction with user-friendly operation, making them ideal for both installation and long-term operation in the field.
