Optical signals in optical cables have short wavelength why?

Because the attenuation of the fiber is much less at those wavelengths.


What is meant by attenuation in optical fiber?

When an optical signal of a given wavelength travels in the fiber it looses power. The amount of loss of power per Km length of fiber is called its attenuation. A=10*LOG10(POUT/PIN) dB/Km Where POuT is optical power after 1 Km PIN is th epower launched in the Fiber.

Why are waveguides used in high frequency?

I size of the object is comparable to wavelength, it will cause error. In high frequency wavelength is very low. So small-small objects will also cause interference, thereby increasing attenuation. Waveguides are hollow metals. Thus wave does not go out and stay inside. Metals does not cause any attenuation. Propagation of EM wave in waveguide is similar to light in optical fiber.


Can you directly interface two different wavelength fiber optic devices?

If they are tunable, yes you can. If the operating frequency is locked, no, you cannot.

Why are infrared waves used in fiber optics?

This is because infrared can travel farther with less distortion, i.e., it has less attenuation.
