How can you use fiber optical cable for PC to PC communication?
You will need a special card for each PC that would convert the communication signals (electrical signals) into optical code. Then you would connect the optical ports of both machines together via fiber optic cable. Ideally one card (one per machine) would be able to transmit and receive optical code over two strands of fiber. One strand for transmit the other for receive.
What difference between copper cable and optical cable?
A copper cable transports electrical signals. An optical cable transports light signals.
Which types of electromagnetic waves can be used to send signals along optical fibers?
Only light is used to send signals along optical fibres. That's why this type of fibre is described as "optical". Fibres designed to conduct electrical signals are referred to as "wires".
What is used to convert fiber optic light transmissions to electrical signals?
Fiber-optic communication refers to the transmission of information using optical fiber. Opto-electronic repeaters are used to convert fiber optic light transmissions to electrical signals.
How does an optical transmitter sends signals to the optical fiber?
Usually, there is a laser diode that is optically coupled to the fiber.
What is optical switching?
An optical switch is a switch that enables signals in circuits to be switched from one circuit to another.
What is the pragmatic function of communication signals?
pragmatic functions are type of communication signals which are used for certain purpose
Optical signals in optical cables have short wavelength why?
Because the attenuation of the fiber is much less at those wavelengths.
What is optical communication?
An optical fiber is a flexible, transparent fiber made of very pure glass (silica) not much bigger than a human hair that acts as a waveguide, or "light pipe", to transmit light between the two ends of the fiber. The field of applied science and engineering concerned with the design and application of optical fibers is known as fiber optics. Optical fibers are widely used in fiber-optic communications, which permits transmission over longer distances and at higher bandwidths (data rates) than other forms of communication. Fibers are used instead of metal wires because signals travel along them with less loss and are also immune to electromagnetic interference. Fibers are also used for illumination, and are wrapped in bundles so they can be used to carry images, thus allowing viewing in tight spaces. Specially designed fibers are used for a variety of other applications, including sensors and fiber lasers.
What is antenna role in space communication?
it receives signals and sends out signals
