Fiber optic cable, also called optical fiber cable, utilizes optical fibers to carry optical signals, acting as a transmission medium. Due to its benefits of high bandwidth, low loss, immunity to electromagnetic interference, and vast transmission capacity, it has evolved into a crucial element of contemporary communication networks.
One of the main reasons for the wide adoption of fiber optic cable in communication is its ability to provide high bandwidth, allowing for the rapid transmission of vast amounts of data over long distances. Additionally, the low loss characteristic of optical fibers ensures that the signal remains strong throughout the transmission, reducing the need for amplification and improving overall efficiency.
Furthermore, the resistance to electromagnetic interference gives fiber optic cable a significant advantage over traditional copper cables, making it ideal for environments with high levels of electromagnetic radiation. Its large transmission capacity also enables the simultaneous transmission of multiple signals, further enhancing its utility in diverse communication applications.
The innermost part in fiber cable is typically made of high-purity silica (SiO₂) and is used to guide light signals. It plays a crucial role in the transmission of data through fiber optics.
Single-mode fiber (SMF) features a small core diameter, typically 8-10 μm, making it ideal for long-distance transmission. On the other hand, multimode fiber (MMF) has a larger core diameter of 50/62.5 μm, which is more suitable for short-distance transmission purposes.
