OTHER FIBER OPTICS BENEFITS

by www.fiber-mart.com
There is no quicker way to transmit data through the Internet than to connect your computer to a network using fiber optics cable technologies. The bursts of light sending data through this networking equipment offers rates of connectivity never before seen in the world of information technology, a benefit that we’re quick to point out here on the Connected Fiber blog.
 
There are plenty of other ways that fiber optics stacks up positively when compared to other forms of cabled Internet connections. As this article published by AL.com discusses, benefits range from cost savings to more durable and stable online connections for users.
 
Many people point out the incredible cost of installing fiber optics cable as a major obstacle, which often discourages people from choosing to convert to the technology. Once those cables are laid down, however, most subscribers are surprised at how long they can go between necessary maintenance sessions or even repairs.
 
As we’ve discussed before on this blog, many cities and other municipalities are taking tax dollars and investing them in fiber optics systems to be used by the entire community. This is providing a very useful market benefit in providing cost-effective competition to the for-profit cable companies that often monopolize a certain area. With two Internet providers, one of them publicly subsidized, private companies are forced to keep prices down to compete. And that’s a great thing, because when more people are connected to the Internet, a local or regional economy can truly thrive.
 
We could go on and on for days about the benefits of installing fiber optics systems for your residence or organization. The staff at fiber-mart offers the technical support for quick and painless installation and the courteous service required to take care of any maintenance or repairs quickly. When you want a quicker connection to the Internet, call North Carolina’s top provider of fiber optics solutions.

    Common Armored Fiber Optic Cables

      Armored fiber optic cables are often installed in a network for added mechanical protection, as they have extra reinforcing in the cable housing to prevent damage. Two types of armored fiber optic cables exist: interlocking and corrugated. Interlocking armor is an aluminum armor that is helically wrapped around the cable and found in indoor and indoor/outdoor cables. It offers ruggedness and superior crush resistance. Corrugated armor is a coated steel tape folded around the cable longitudinally. It is found in outdoor cables and offers extra mechanical and rodent protection.   The Structure of an Armored Fiber Optic Cable In basic armored fiber cable designs, the outer sleeve provides protection against wind, solvents, and abrasion. This outer sleeve is usually made of plastic such as polyethylene. The next layer between the sleeve and the inner jacket is an armoring layer of materials that are difficult to cut, chew, or bu

    what the Differences Between FBT Splitter and PLC Splitter

      In FTTx and PON architectures, optical splitter plays an increasingly significant role to create a variety of point-to-multipoint fiber optic networks. But do you know what is a fiber optic splitter? In fact, a fiber optic splitter is a passive optical device that can split or separate an incident light beam into two or more light beams. Basically, there are two types of fiber splitter classified by their working principle: fused biconical taper splitter (FBT splitter) and planar lightwave circuit splitter (PLC splitter). You may have one question: what’s the difference between them and shall we use FBT or PLC splitter?   What Is FBT Splitter? FBT splitter is based on a traditional technology to weld several fiber together from side of the fiber. Fibers are aligned by heating for a specific location and length. Because the fused fibers are very fragile, they are protected by a glass tube made of epoxy and silica powder. And then a stainless steel tube covers the inner glass tu

    Introduction of Optical Fiber Couplers and How Do They Work?

     What are optical fiber couplers? A fiber optic coupler can be defined as an optical component used with one or more input fibers and several output fibers in fiber optic systems. A coupler essentially puts two or more cores of fibers together to connect. The simple coupler is the fused fiber 2x2 coupler. Couplers are used as multiplexers that are resistant to certain wavelengths. A fiber output depends on the wavelength of light and the frequency of polarization. The fiber refractive index also plays a significant role in the performance. Let’s checkout how do optic couplers work to understand this better. How do fiber optic couplers work? Either fiber optic couplers separate optical signals into multiple paths or combine multiple signals in one direction. Optical signals are more complicated than electrical signals, making it more difficult to design optical couplers than their electrical copy. Unlike electrical currents, the optical signal consists of a stream of signal carriers, in
