Diagram originally published by the Fiber Optics LAN Section of the Telecommunications Industry Association. Fiber to the Edge (FTTE), fiber to the telecom enclosure (FTTTE) or fiber to the zone (FTTZ), [1] is a fiber to the x networking approach used in the enterprise building (hotels, convention centers, office buildings, hospitals, senior living communities, Multi-Dwelling Units, stadiums ...
The main application of FCoE is in data center storage area networks (SANs). FCoE has particular application in data centers due to the cabling reduction it makes possible, as well as in server virtualization applications, which often require many physical I/O connections per server.
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 ...
A fiber optic cable assembly with SC APC connectors, as commonly used to link optical network terminals to passive optical networks. A passive optical network (PON) is a fiber-optic telecommunications network that uses only unpowered devices to carry signals, as opposed to electronic equipment.
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.
Fibre Channel over IP (FCIP or FC/IP, also known as Fibre Channel tunneling or storage tunneling) is a protocol created by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) for storage technology. An FCIP entity encapsulates Fibre Channel frames using TCP segments and forwards them over an IP network to another FCIP entity which decapsulates them and ...
A fiber-optic sensor is a sensor that uses optical fiber either as the sensing element ("intrinsic sensors"), or as a means of relaying signals from a remote sensor to the electronics that process the signals ("extrinsic sensors"). Fibers have many uses in remote sensing.
