As a communications subsystem, a fiber optic data link connects inputs and outputs (I/O) from electronic subsystems and transmits these signals over fiber optic cables. More specifically, this data link converts an electrical input signal …

To accommodate the increasing demands for high-speed data transmission and great data capacity, data centers are moving to 40G and 100G transmission networks now. It’s known that 40/100G Ethernet implementations over multi-mode fibers (MMF…

Copper wires were one the great inventions that let people to power the first telegraphs and telephones, allowing communication over long distances and bringing benefits to people’s daily life. Owing to the advances made in fiber optic tec…

It’s known that multi-mode (MMF) fiber is available in OM1, OM2, OM3 (e.g. OM3 patch cable) and OM4 versions. How about single-mode fiber (SMF)? There are a variety of SMFs with carefully optimized characteristics available commercially: I…

Over the years, data center bandwidth requirements are expanding at double-digit rates, along with the equally urgent push not to compromise the cost-to-performance ratio. To accommodate the needs of web-scale data centers and cloud-based …

When it comes to the information transmission, three ways are usually discussed. For landline telephone, a wire cable is used to carry the sounds from voice into a socket in the wall, where another cable takes it to the local telephone exc…

Data center, which is full of fiber optic cables (such as fiber cable LC to LC), optical modules, and many other optic products, is the brain of a company and the place where the most critical processes are run. Today we are gonna talk abo…
