2. Fiber-optic patch cord - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiber-optic_patch_cord

   A fiber-optic patch cord is constructed from a core with a high refractive index, surrounded by a coating with a low refractive index, that is strengthened by aramid yarns and surrounded by a protective jacket. Transparency of the core permits transmission of optic signals with little loss over great distances.

3. Fiber-optic cable - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiber-optic_cable

   A fiber-optic cable, also known as an optical-fiber cable, is an assembly similar to an electrical cable but containing one or more optical fibers that are used to carry light. The optical fiber elements are typically individually coated with plastic layers and contained in a protective tube suitable for the environment where the cable is used.

4. Optical fiber connector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_fiber_connector

   However, the assembly and polishing operations involved can be performed in the field, for example, to terminate long runs at a patch panel. Optical fiber connectors are used in telephone exchanges, for customer premises wiring, and in outside plant applications to connect equipment and fiber-optic cables, or to cross-connect cables.

5. Patch cable - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patch_cable

   A patch cable, patch cord or patch lead is an electrical or fiber-optic cable used to connect ("patch in") one electronic or optical device to another for signal routing. Devices of different types (e.g., a switch connected to a computer, or a switch to a router) are connected with patch cords.

6. Multi-mode optical fiber - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multi-mode_optical_fiber

   Optical fiber manufacturers have greatly refined their manufacturing process since that standard was issued and cables can be made that support 10 GbE up to 400 meters. Laser optimized multi-mode fiber (LOMMF) is designed for use with 850 nm VCSELs. Older FDDI grade, OM1, and OM2 fiber can be used for 10 Gigabit Ethernet through 10GBASE-LRM.

7. Fibre to the office - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibre_to_the_Office

   Fiber to the office (FTTO) is an alternative cabling concept for local area network (LAN) network office environments. [1] It combines passive elements (fibre optic cabling, patch panels, splice boxes, connectors and standard copper 8P8C patch cords) and active mini-switches (called FTTO switches) to provide end devices with Gigabit Ethernet.
