Fiber optic connection technology
Fiber optic cables, also known as optical fibers, are a form of transmission line that transports optical signals via light waves. Whereas with copper cables a classic network connection may be a maximum of 100 meters long, fibre optic cables connect entire continents. The reason for the long transmission range lies in the low attenuation properties of fiber optics. The light waves can flow through almost unhindered at high speed without losing signal strength or quality.
Fiber optic technology is very complex and requires a good understanding of various technical aspects in order to find the right cable for the specific requirements of the application. The implementation of fiber optic cables in a communication network requires knowledge of network architecture, routing protocols and data transmission standards. It is important to understand the requirements of the network and design appropriate solutions to ensure optimal performance and reliability.
There are also various precautions that must be taken before installation. Read here 5 tips for a successful fiber optic installation
