Fiber optic cable , commonly referred to as optical fiber cable , serves as a transmission medium utilizing optical fibers for conveying optical signals. This technology has emerged as a pivotal component in contemporary communication systems, attributing to its remarkable benefits including high bandwidth, minimal loss, resistance to electromagnetic interferences, and substantial transmission capacity.
The utilization of fiber optic cable has significantly transformed the landscape of communication networks, enabling faster and more reliable data transfer. Through the transmission of optical signals via glass or plastic fibers, this technology offers a superior alternative to traditional copper wiring, paving the way for enhanced connectivity across various platforms.
The innermost part in fiber cable, typically consisting of high-purity silica (SiO 2 ), serves to guide light signals. Single-mode fiber (SMF) features a small core diameter (usually 8-10 μm) and is ideal for long-distance transmission, while multimode fiber (MMF) has a larger core diameter (50/62.5 μm) and is suitable for short-distance transmission.
