What are internal controls and why are they important? Internal controls are the procedures put in place to help achieve the objectives of the university relating to financial, strategic, and academic initiatives. Good controls encourage efficiency, compliance with laws, regulations and university policies, and seek to eliminate fraud and abuse. Some everyday internal control procedures include:
Standard Fiber Optic Cable. Sealed with a Teflon jacket over a stainless steel sheath, Williamson's standard fiber optic cables are available in lengths of 3 - 30 feet (1-9 meters). Cable diameter is .25 in. (6.5mm) with a lens assembly that is 3.05 in. long x 0.5 diameter (77mm x 14mm). They are suitable for most general purpose applications.
Jason has two fiber optic cables. The main cable runs from the ship to Jason and has steel armor on its outside. This gives it over 20 tons of strength. The other cable is the yellow tether that runs from Medea to Jason. Instead of steel, it is reinforced with a material called Spectra.he outer yellow and black plastic layers protect it from abrasion. The white material called Spectra provides strength but is very light. The three smaller colored wires in the middle contain the glass strands. A piece of fiber optic cable unraveled to show the three colored wires containing the glass fibers.
