 What is fiber optic cable?   A fiber optic cable is really a network cable which contains strands of glass fibers in a insulated casing. These cables are equipped for long distance and very high bandwidth (gigabit speed) network communications. If you want to know more info about fiber optic [ Continue reading…]



OPTICAL TRANSCEIVERS IN FIBER NETWORKS

pending image

 by www.fiber-mart.com Fiber optic networks evolved in late 20th century to cater the increasing demands of bandwidth and to allow faster communication networks. Fiber optic Transceivers use a laser as light source which transfer signals through one or more glass strands (fibers). Optical Transceivers have several advantages over the copper/electrical wire communication [ Continue reading…]


WHAT IS A BIDIRECTIONAL OPTICAL WDM BIDI TRANSCEIVER?

pending image

 by www.fiber-mart.com Commonly, optical networks rely on Transceivers that utilize one optical fiber to transmit data and another optical fiber to receive data to and from the networking devices. Generally, this kind of data transmission raises the costs of the network deployment, however with use of the bidirectional optical WDM BIDI [ Continue reading…]
