2. 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 ...

   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 ...

5. Polarization-maintaining optical fiber - Wikipedia

   The larger circle surrounding them is the cladding, usually 125 microns in diameter. In fiber optics, polarization-maintaining optical fiber (PMF or PM fiber) is a single-mode optical fiber in which linearly polarized light, if properly launched into the fiber, maintains a linear polarization during propagation, exiting the fiber in a specific ...

6. 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 ...

7. ClearCurve - Wikipedia

   Conventional single-mode long-haul optical fiber cable. Conventional optical fiber consists of a thin inner cylindrical core of glass or plastic with a similar material layered in a thin coating around it. Slight differences in the index of refraction between the two layers causes total internal reflection, trapping a light beam inside the ...
