The advantage of fiber optic

Fiber optic cable is a cable network that can transmit light. Compared with other types of cable, this cable is more expensive. However, the advantages of fiber optics are numerous; including optical fiber has a more distant range from 550 meters up to hundreds of kilometres, resistant to electromagnetic interference and can transmit data at higher speeds than other cable types.

Fiber optic cables do not carry electrical signals, such as other cables using copper wires. Instead, the signals that represent bits are converted to the form of light. Fiber optic cable consists of two types, known as single mode and multi mode. Single mode cable can reach a longer distance and only send one signal at a time. Multimode cable sends a different signal at the same time, transmit data at different refraction angles at the same time, and transmit data at different refraction shrinkage. Single mode cable to reach hundreds of kilometres while multimode cable is usually only reaches 550 meters or less. Fiber optic cable connector consists of two types of ST connector model of ring shaped and square shaped SC connectors. Use this cable to be adjusted to the type of device you are using because they may be different.

Fiber optic technology

Fiber optic is transmission data transfer which made from glasses or plastic. It’s shape very small and this tool can transfer light signal.  The technology development very good, can bring out side this technology. The speed of transfer use fiber optic very fast, because it is made from plastic or glasses, so that the light signal if want spring back, will be back again, so there is no lose signal. The light from fiber optic will not go outside because drift index from glasses is bigger than drift index from air. So, fiber optic technology is very good for use as street communicate.

In principle, fiber optic spring back and extend in there. The light in the fiber optic will bring the data from one place to another place. And this technology has been there from for years ago, people have known about this technology. But this technology is not use. For the first generation, the system of fiber optic still simple and can be base for the next generation. The second generation, this fiber optic have capacity of speed ten times bigger than the first generation. For the next generation, it happened complete for that capacity of transmission and fiber optic always get some development.
