Fiber Optics - Contained transmission

Monday, August 20th, 2007

Fiber optics is the overlap of applied science and engineering concerned with such optical fibers.  Fiber optics is the contained transmission of light through long fiber rods of either glass or plastics.  The biggest challenge remaining for fiber optics is economic.  Today it is a serious competition for the more established communications systems.

Multiple Usages

Friday, July 13th, 2007

One of the things that I find truly fascinating about the technology behind fiber optics is that not only can you transfer light over huge distances without seeing any significant loss of strength but it can also be used to transfer data using the exact same technology.
Now I can’t say that I have any expert […]

What is Data Fiber Optics Technology?

Friday, May 25th, 2007

In the old days (and it still used all over the world) data, sound and any other form of communication was sent using cobber cables that is either ground based or wires running through the air. This technology is slow, costly and the quality of the signals will become poor when the signals run great […]
