2. All-dielectric self-supporting cable - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/All-dielectric_self...

   All-dielectric self-supporting cable. All-dielectric self-supporting (ADSS) cable is a type of optical fiber cable that is strong enough to support itself between structures without using conductive metal elements. It is used by electrical utility companies as a communications medium, installed along existing overhead transmission lines and ...

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

   An optical fiber connector is a device used to link optical fibers, facilitating the efficient transmission of light signals. An optical fiber connector enables quicker connection and disconnection than splicing. They come in various types like SC, LC, ST, and MTP, each designed for specific applications. In all, about 100 different types of ...

5. TIA-598-C - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TIA-598-C

   The Telecommunications Industry Association 's TIA-598-C Optical Fiber Cable Color Coding is an American National Standard that provides all necessary information for color-coding optical fiber cables in a uniform manner. It defines identification schemes for fibers, buffered fibers, fiber units, and groups of fiber units within outside plant ...

6. Single-mode optical fiber - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-mode_optical_fiber

   In fiber-optic communication, a single-mode optical fiber (SMF), also known as fundamental- or mono-mode, [1] is an optical fiber designed to carry only a single mode of light - the transverse mode. Modes are the possible solutions of the Helmholtz equation for waves, which is obtained by combining Maxwell's equations and the boundary ...

7. Fiber cable termination - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiber_cable_termination

   A fiber pigtail is a single, short, usually tight-buffered, optical fiber that has an optical connector pre-installed on one end and a length of exposed fiber at the other end. The end of the pigtail is stripped and fusion spliced to a single fiber of a multi-fiber trunk. Splicing of pigtails to each fiber in the trunk "breaks out" the multi ...

8. Fanout cable - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fanout_cable

   Fanout cable. Breakout-style fiberoptic cable (also called breakout cable or fanout cable), is an optical fiber cable containing several jacketed simplex optical fibers packaged together inside an outer jacket. This differs from distribution-style cable, in which tight-buffered fibers are bundled together, with only the outer cable jacket of ...

9. Fiber-optic communication - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiber-optic_communication

   Fiber-optic communication is a method of transmitting information from one place to another by sending pulses of infrared or visible light through an optical fiber. [1][2] The light is a form of carrier wave that is modulated to carry information. [3] Fiber is preferred over electrical cabling when high bandwidth, long distance, or immunity to ...
