There are many great websites where you can purchase fiber optics cable. One great website is http://www.cablesplususa.com/.
Yes, people speculate about 25 to 30 years. They even run fiber optics through the ocean, fiber optics is cutting-edge.
A core in fiber optics is a single strand of fiber. It forms one half-duplex channel, where one transmitter can send data to one receiver. In order to form a full-duplex channel, two cores or strands are required. Many fiber optic cables contain many cores organized in many bundles.
Many companies are using fiber optics for backbone connection.
Wire made of many strands is 'cable'
Fiber optics are being incorporated into many technologies. Computer network infrastructure and telecommunications have been some of the first to make use of fiber optics. It is also starting to be used for lighting in objects such as christmas trees and frisbees.
a cable.
Yo­u hear ab­out fiber-optic cables whenever people ta­lk about the telephone system, the cable TV system or the Internet. Fiber-optic lines are strands of optically pure glass as thin as a human hair that carry digital information over long distances. They are also used in medical imaging and mechanical engineering inspection.
It wasn't a one man effort, inventing fiber optics. Works were inspired by John Tyndall who first discovered light can travel an irregular path through glass. Alexander Graham Bell later contributed. Heinrich Lamm in 1930 put the first fiber optic cable together stranding cable together and sending a signal across the wire. There were many other people who helped improve it over the year. Al Gore is not the father of Fiber Optic cables, in case you were wondering.
Satellite versus Fiber Optics communication1- Fiber optics communication is quicker but satellite is slow in communication.2- Fiber Optics communication higher bandwidth but Satellite Lower Bandwidth.3- In case of any fault we can easily repair Fiber Optics but Satellite can not be repair.4- Fiber Optics initial Cast is low but Satellite is very High.5- Many People want to communication during jogging, driving, sailing and flying these all possible in Satellite Communication But Fiber Optics not use for them.6- Fiber Optics is Very costly for long range communication but Satellite is low for long range communication.ByMuhammad ShaoibUniversity of Management and Technology ,Lahore, Pakistan
There are 25 companies in Pennsylvania that use fiber optics. One of the featured companies is LCN Communications, Inc. 1775 Ferndale Avenue, Abington PA 19001.
Fiber optics is a telecommunications medium. It can carry many types of signals: telephone, television, teletype, internet, etc. Fiber optics are normally only used for the high capacity "backbone" of the telecommunications network, not for delivery to individual customer service drops (although a few communities have individual customer fiber optic service drops installed).Fiber optics replaced the older AT&T microwave tower system that carried telephone and television nationwide from the early 1950s to the early 1990s. It is much less expensive to install and maintain.
