Fiber-optic Connection

Transmission through Fiber-optic Connection carries data through long distances. This wired Internet Connection has the highest data rates of any communication infrastructure. It has long been used in backbone networks such as SDH/SONET. Fiber optic connection has now spread from the core to the Metro Area Network (MAN).

Types of Fiber-Optic Cable Connection

• Single Mode
• Multimode
• Plastic optical fiber

Advantages of Fiber-optic Connection

• A single optical fiber can carry about three trillion bits of information per second. The fastest service (fixed wireless access) approaches to million bps. So, fiber optics can be more than a million times faster.
• The number of colors on a fiber optics strand doubles every six to nine months and that too with no cost increments.
• The fiber-optic cable being a carrier of three trillion bits of information per second can download in seconds which a dial-up modem and a wireless connection cannot.
• It is more secured than a dial-up connection or a wireless connection.
• Signals can easily be carried forward without needing to be refreshed or strengthened.
• It has greater resistance to electromagnetic noise such as radios, motors, or other nearby cables.
• It has lower maintenance costs.

Fiber-optic Connection is inevitable in all spheres of life. Whether it is telephone, cable televisions or computers at home, schools or industries, Fiber-optic Connection is the right choice when it comes to speed, precision and reliability.
