What you need to know about Fiber Optics Technology?

By

When it comes to data cabling, there are various kinds of mediums available that can carry data from point A to point B. With the advancement in technology and growing demand, fiber optic cabling is quickly on its way to becoming the standard data cabling method.

Fiber optic wires carry information in the form of light and this method is being highly used to transport both video and audio signals for short and long distances. This kind of transmission is possible by modulating an audio/video signal onto a beam of coherent light which is generated by a solid-state laser.

Fiber optics technology is gradually replacing copper wires as a means of communication signal transmission. The major reason is that fiber optics provides more benefits in comparison to the traditional wires and cables.

Efficiency and safety

Fiber optics technology offers reliability and flexibility in transmitting information with limitless bandwidth. This technology offers more than 1000 times as much bandwidth over distances more than 100 times farther than copper cables.

Low maintenance

Being made up of glass, optics is not at all sensitive to water and chemicals. This fact eliminates the cost of maintenance and gives no risk of being damaged by harsh elements.

Cover longer distances

Fiberoptic technology carries signals longer as compared to copper wires because of low signal rates. Also, signals carried through this technology maintain the integrity of the signal over greater distances.

Easy and safe installation

Smaller diameters, elongated lengths, and light weight are some properties of fiber optic cables that make the installation easy and cost-effective in comparison to the copper cables.

No risk involved

Using fiber optic technology involves no threat or risk of physical injuries if in case optic cables break.  This is because a signal is transmitted in the form of light instead of electricity. Thus, fiber optic technology is the safest way of signal transmission and brings no risk of injury from fire, sparkling or electrocution.

Fiber Modes:

There are two different types of fiber optic cables that you can pick according to your specific data cabling requirements. The first one is a single-mode fiber which has a much smaller core diameter that allows only a single path for light to be broadcast through. This reduces the fiber attenuation and allows the signal to move farther. This reason makes single-mode fiber to be used in higher bandwidth applications. Single-mode fiber provides the users with a transmission rate of 20 to 150 km.

Another one is multi-mode fiber where a signal is traveled through multiple ways to reach its destination. This makes the multi-mode fibers to provide users with large bandwidth at high speeds across moderate distances. Multimode fibers provide a transmission rate of 0.5 to 1km.

Little Known Facts about Data Centers - And Why They Matter

By

Gone are the days, when computers were massive machines, now they are shrunk and have become affordable than ever before. Similar is the case with data centers, they once contain a single supercomputer but now they consist of multiple servers that run 24*7. Data centers  are localized and centralized computing facilities and network administration hardware. They are used to gather process and distribute a large amount of information. They are liable for data backup and recovery, just as systems administration. Data centers host websites, manage e-mails and support cloud storage applications . How do data centers work? When someone types a web address in the web browser, they are requesting information from the server. The information stored in a data center server is divided into small packets and then send through the best route. This information then reaches the internet service provider through a series of wired or wireless networks. The requested information/data...
