Discussion on Design and Construction ADSS cable

Discussion on Design and Construction of ADSS cable issues Abstract: In this article, According to the cable and fiber FAQs performance in the construction process, and discuss the relationship between the structure and design of their ADSS cable. Describe the differences between ADSS cable design, for different regions and different construction conditions, under different circumstances. […]

OM1, OM2, OM3, OM4 and OS1, OS2 Fiber

In ANSI/TIA-568-C.3, the TIA adopted the nomenclature for fiber found in the international standard ISO/IEC 11801. The multimode fiber is prefixed with “OM” and the singlemode mode “OS”.  The new designation in ANSI/TIA-568-C.3 should alleviate some of the confusion associated with application support distance issues. Each “OM” has a minimum Modal Bandwidth (MBW) requirement. Minimum […]

50 Micron Fiber for Tomorrow’s Networks

An old fiber type – 50 µm multimode – is making a comeback. Why? To meet increasing network speeds! This high bandwidth fiber makes it ideal for Gb/s and 10 Gb/s networks. 50 µm multimode fiber offers three times the bandwidth of standard 62.5 µm fiber at 850nm; 500 MHz-km vs. 160 MHz-km. The bandwidth […]

Fiber optic connectors Singlemode and Multimode

Fiber optic connectors Singlemode and Multimode Fiber-optic cables are used in data communications such as telephone lines, cable television and broadband Internet. The cables consist of flexible transparent glass fibers that are connected to electronic devices with modulators. The modulators receive data from the sending device and encode it into light pulses made by LED […]

Glossary

Adapter A mechanical media termination device designed to align and join fiber optic connectors. Often referred to as coupling, bulkhead, or interconnect sleeve.  Adapter Sleeve A mechanical fixture within an adapter body that aligns and holds two terminated fiber connectors. Adapter sleeve material is typically phosphor bronze, ceramic or polymer.  Adapters An adapter is a […]

Types of the fiber optic cables

In terms of the fiber optic cables, there are thousands of kinds to classify the types of fiber optic cables according to different sorting technique. To know about the fiber optic cables type thoroughly, we have to master what is fiber optic cables at first. An optical fiber cable is a cable containing one or […]

Fiber Connectors

There are many types of fiber optic connectors avaible for various performance: SC Connector SC stands for Subscriber Connector- a general purpose push/pull style Connector developed by NTT. SC has an advantage in keyed duplexibility to support send/receive channels.SC Connectors are frequently used for newer Network applications. The SC is a snap-in connector that is […]
