Which type of networking media uses pulses of light to transmit data?
Fiber Optic Cables
Why fiber-optic cable immune to electromagnetic interference?
Fiber-optic is transmitted using light so it is unaffected by electromagnetic intererence.
What is the purpuose of caddling in fiber optic cable?
Prevention of light-loss in the core
What type of network cable is least affected by EMI?
STP, shield twisted pair, is recommended by most of us who've had A+ certification training.
What is the single mode fiber optic?
Single Mode cable is a single stand (most applications use 2 fibers) of glass fiber with a diameter of 8.3 to 10 microns that has one mode of transmission. Single Mode Fiber with a relatively narrow diameter, through which only one mode will propagate typically 1310 or 1550nm. Carries higher bandwidth than multimode fiber, but requires a light source with a narrow spectral width. Synonyms mono-mode optical fiber, single-mode fiber, single-mode optical waveguide, uni-mode fiber.
Can alternating current be transmitted through fiber optic cable?
No. Nor can direct current, for that matter. Fiber optics is designed to transmit light signals, not electrical currents.
Can electricity be transmitted through optical fibers?
No. Light is transmitted through optical fibers.
Which electromagnetic radiations can be transmitted through an optical fiber?
Visible light.
What are electronic signals converted into when transmitted through fiber-optic cables?
Light.
Why should the light ray be reflected rather than refractive in fiber optics?
Firstly, a fiber optic cable transmits light from one end of the fiber optic cable to the other end. You can kind of think of the fiber optic cable as a long tube. The way in which light travels from one end to the other is that it gets reflected off the inside parts of this glass or plastic tube by a physical phenomenon known as: Total Internal Reflection. Refraction of light only occurs when light travels from one medium to another. For example, when light travels from air to water, from water to air, from water to oil, etc. In other words, in terms of fiber optics, the only way light will get refracted is if it passes through the glass or plastic tube. But if this happened, then the light will exit the fiber optic cable as it travels from one end of the cable to the other end, and the light would not be properly transmitted, defeating the purpose of fiber optics. In other words, light should be reflective rather than refractive in fiber optics in order for light to be effectively transmitted from one end to the other end of a fiber optic cable.
How is a message transmitted through a glass fiber?
Different types of information are transmitted from one place to another by signals of light pulses through optical fibers.
Will water pass through the core of a fiber optic cable?
no the core of a fiber optic cable is made of solid glass, making it impossible to pass anything but light through it.
Can light travel through the core of a fiber optic cable?
yes, the ability of light to travel through the cable is what makes it useful. There is not some sort of hole in the center of the cable, it is a solid glass cable.
Electronic signals are converted into what when transmitted through fiber optic cables?
depends on the purpose of the device
Why do signals in the fiber optics cables travel at the speed of light?
fiber optics transfer data at the speed of light because that's exactly what is transmitted through them... light. fiber optic cables are thin pieces of glass that transmit light pulses
How many bytes can travel at the speed of light?
Information transmitted by electromagnetic radiation travels at the speed of light. There is no limit on the quantity of bytes. (Information transmitted through a medium like microwaves in air, optical fiber, cable, wires, etc. are able to transport information and are electromagnetic but they travel at a speed somewhat less than the speed of light in a vacuum. The answer is however still the same. There is no limit.)
What are 3 uses for light sent through a fiber optic cable?
Looking on your HCOS page.... instead of here.
