The Department of the Navy issued a Request for Information (RFI) for a Common Optical Distribution Architecture (CODA) for Commercial Off-the-Shelf (COTS) wired and wireless equipment to facilitate proof of concept.

According to the solicitation, “leveraging a common infrastructure is a foundational step in the creation of a long term shipboard communications roadmap that considers future conditions. Understanding that the latest generation of shipboard personnel is reporting to ships with an established culture for information sharing, collaboration and continuous connectivity, it is critical to create a next generation technology roadmap that utilizes a common infrastructure; therefore harnessing this potential. To prove that a common infrastructure can meet shipboard requirements, SSC Pacific has created an innovation lab in which we have developed the Common Optical Distribution Architecture (CODA) in order to successfully execute a proof of concept.”
