2Optical fiber composite overhead ground wire — (OPGW) is a type of cable that is used in the construction of electric power transmission and distribution lines. Such cable combines the functions of grounding and communications. An OPGW cable contains a tubular structure with one or more… …
3optical fiber — n. (Communications) A thin fiber of very pure glass used to carry signals transmitted by means of light. It has much greater information carrying capacity than a copper wire, and in the 1990 s became a dominant means of transmitting telephone… …
4Optical Fiber Technology — is a scientific journal that is published by Elsevier (formerly by Academic Press). Established in 1994, it covers various topics in fiber optic engineering, optical communications and fiber lasers. International Standard Serial Number: 1068 5200 …
5Optical fiber cable — A TOSLINK optical fiber cable with a clear jacket. These plastic fiber cables are used mainly for digital audio connections between devices. An optical fiber cable is a cable containing one or more optical fibers. The optical fiber elements are… …
6Optical fiber connector — An optical fiber connector terminates the end of an optical fiber, and enables quicker connection and disconnection than splicing. The connectors mechanically couple and align the cores of fibers so that light can pass. Better connectors lose… …
7Optical Fiber Conference — The Optical Fiber Communication Conference and Exposition (OFC) is the premier international event for both the science and business of optical communications, with a comprehensive technical program and the largest all optical business exhibition …
8optical fiber — Thin glass fiber that transmits communications signals by employing laser technology …
9Multi-mode optical fiber — A 1.25 Gbit/s multi mode fiber Multi mode optical fiber (multimode fiber or MM fiber or fibre) is a type of optical fiber mostly used for communication over short distances, such as within a building or on a campus. Typical multimode links… …
10Optical hybrid — A 90° optical hybrid is a six port device that is used for coherent signal demodulation for either homodyne or heterodyne detection. It would mix the incoming signal with the four quadratural states associated with the reference signal in the… …
