Fiber optic cable, which is also referred to as optical fiber cable, serves as a transmission medium that utilizes optical fibers for transmitting optical signals. This technology has emerged as a vital component in contemporary communication networks because of its numerous advantages. These include high bandwidth, low loss, resistance to electromagnetic interference, and a substantial transmission capacity.
Fiber optic cable is a sophisticated and efficient medium for transmitting data over long distances. Its high bandwidth allows for the rapid transmission of large amounts of data, making it ideal for handling the increasing demands of modern communication systems. Additionally, the low loss of optical fibers ensures that signals can travel long distances without significant degradation, resulting in reliable and robust communication connections.
Moreover, fiber optic cable is known for its resilience against electromagnetic interference, making it a stable and secure option for transmitting sensitive data. Its large transmission capacity enables the seamless transfer of data-intensive applications such as high-definition video streaming, cloud computing, and telemedicine services. As a result, fiber optic cable has become a pivotal element in shaping the connectivity and efficiency of today's communication networks.
The innermost part in fiber cable, typically made of high-purity silica (SiO₂), is utilized to guide light signals. Single-mode fiber (SMF) features a small core diameter (usually 8-10 μm), which is ideal for long-distance transmission; whereas multimode fiber (MMF) has a larger core diameter (50/62.5 μm), suitable for short-distance transmission.
High Bandwidth
Capable of transmitting massive data, supporting gigabit or even terabit transmission rates (e.g., 10G/40G/100G Ethernet).
Low Signal Loss
Single-mode fiber exhibits a loss of less than 0.2 dB/km at 1550 nm, enabling transmission over tens of kilometers without requiring amplification.
Anti-Electromagnetic Interference
Light signals remain unaffected by electromagnetic fields, making it well-suited for use in harsh environments such as industrial sites and power grids.
