How Do Fiber Optic Cleavers Precisely Cut Optical Fibers in a Flash? By : Colin Yao :: What is optical fiber cleaving Simply put, optical fiber cleaving is the art of cutting glass optical fibers at a perfect 90° angle with a mirror like surface Dummies' Guide to Fiber Optic Bit Error Ratio (BER) Measurement By : Colin Yao Bit error ratio (BER) measurement is the fundamental measurement of the quality of the fiber optic communication system It measures the system's probability that transmitted bits will be correctly received as logic ones and zeros How to Design a Highly Reliable Fiber Optic Network By : Colin Yao What happens if a major fiber optic cable is cut or a major hubbing location is destroyed in a fiber network Will the whole system be brought down Dummies' Guide to Fiber Optic Sensors By : Colin Yao What are fiber optic sensors The fundamental characteristic of all fiber optic sensors is that they depend on some optical properties, such as intensity, phase, state of polarization and wavelength, to be modulated by measurands Everything You Need to Know About Fiber Optic Ethernet By : Colin Yao In the last decade, a wide variety of applications have been developed that covers a dozen of datacom networking technologies The transmission speed ranges from 10Mbits up to 10Gbit/s and growing What Are Fiber Optic Attenuators? Fiber Optic Communication Tutorial Series By : Colin Yao Why Do We Need Fiber Optic Attenuators A fiber optic attenuator, also called an optical attenuator, simulates the loss the would be caused by a long length of fiber What Are Fiber Optic Circulators? Fiber Optic Communication Tutorial Series By : Colin Yao What is an optical circulator The optical circulator has similar function and design as the optical isolator What Are Fiber Optic Isolators? Fiber Optic Communication Tutorial Series By : Colin Yao Why do we need fiber optic isolator Light can be reflected back and forth Some Basic Concepts of Fiber Optic Loss Testing By : Colin Yao When testing loss in a fiber optic link, some basic principles must be kept in mind all the time 1 What is WDM (Wavelength Division Multiplexing) For Fiber Optic Communication? Fiber Optic Tutorial Series By : Colin Yao What is WDM WDM is the abbreviation for Wavelength Division Multiplexing Everything You Need to Know About Fiber Optic Testing – Fiber Optic Technology Tutorial Series By : Colin Yao Overview of Fiber Optic Testing There are mandatory tests for every stage of the design, manufacture, and installation of the fiber optic components, link, cable plant, and network Most fiber optic test procedures have been thoroughly tested and codified as industry standards Introduction to SONET (Synchronous Optical Networking) – Fiber Optic Technologies Tutorial Series By : Colin Yao The SONET standards were developed in the mid-1980s to take advantage of low-cost transmission over optical fibers It defines a hierarchy of data rates, formats for framing and multiplexing the payload data, as well as optical signal specifications(wavelength and dispersion), allowing multi-vendor interoperability The Future of Fiber Optic Communication By : Colin Yao There is no question that fiber optic communication is our future Fiber optic communication industry has been enjoying amazing growth for over 15 years Understanding Basic Terms in Indoor Fiber Optic Cable Installation By : Colin Yao Fiber optic cables are exposed to electrical, mechanical, chemical and environmental elements, so proper installation is critical for the long-term stability and survival of fiber cables Cable installation must also meet the NEC(National Electric Code) and local building codes Everything You Need To Know About Aerial Fiber Optic Cable Installation By : Colin Yao Understanding The Basic Terms 1 Dead end pole: Dead end pole is a utility pole on which self-supporting figure 8 aerial cable or a steel messenger is tensioned and terminated into a dead-end fixture The Tremendous Applications of Fiber Optics By : Colin Yao The use of fiber optic systems is expanding at a amazing rate Only in the past 10 years, fiber optic communications systems have replaced almost all coaxial and twisted pair cables especially in network backbones The Story Of Legacy Fiber Optic Connectors By : Colin Yao :: Choices of connectors Over the years, a large variety of fiber optic connectors have been designed for most fiber optic installations Lightwave equipment manufacturers have never standardized on any one connector type, they actually provide a selection of connectors for their equipment interface The Secret Of A Successful Underground Fiber Optic Cable Installation By : Colin Yao The two most common outdoor fiber optic cable installations are pole line aerial installation and underground cable installation Underground cable installation can be buried directly underground or placed into a buried duct How To Install Outdoor Fiber Optic Cables In Underground Ducts And Innerducts By : Colin Yao :: Duct/Innerduct materials and colors: Fiber ducts are usually made from HDPE (high-density polyethylene), PVC or other compound They are usually in black or gray FAQ On Fiber Optic Cable Handling And Installation By : Colin Yao :: 1 What is the difference between copper cable and fiber optic cable What Are OFNP, OFNR, OFNG And OFCG? Understanding Fiber Optic Cable Fire Ratings By : Colin Yao Just like copper cables, NEC (National Electrical Code) requires indoor fiber optic cables be marked with their fire and smoking ratings NEC requires all indoor fiber cables be marked correctly and installed properly for its intended use How Do Fiber Optic Couplers Work And How Are They Made? By : Colin Yao :: The need for fiber optic couplers We use electronic couplers all the time: such as a telephone coupler which lets you connect both a telephone and a fax machine to the same telephone line Or a CATV coupler which lets you connect several TV sets to a single cable from Comcast What Is Fiber Optic Splicing? Fiber Optic Tutorial Series 9 By : Colin Yao :: What is fiber splicing Lights travel in optical fibers need a continuous, non-disruptive path in order to travel a long distance without too big signal loss How To Achieve The Lowest Cost Possible When Installing A Fiber Optic Network? By : Colin Yao The purpose of this article is to show you the available options for termination a fiber optic cable installation project I will compare the pros and cons of different termination approaches How To Guarantee A Perfect Fiber Optic Network Installation - Fiber Optic Tutorial Series 8 By : Colin Yao You can find many different fiber optic test equipment from major manufacturers such as fluke, Noyes, JDSU and many other suppliers I will cover the ones you will most likely encounter in general service, installation and operation Understanding Fiber Optic Cable Installation - Fiber Optics Tutorial Series 7 By : Colin Yao Fiber optic cable installation is a very special task that only trained professionals can do it quickly and correctly This is determined by fiber's fragile structure and highly sensitive to microbending and macrobending loss What Are Polarization Maintaining Fibers? Fiber Optics Tutorial Series 6 By : Colin Yao :: What is polarization Light waves consist of oscillating electric and magnetic fields How To Assemble A Fiber Optic Connector - Fiber Optic Tutorial Series Five By : Colin Yao Since there are many different types of fiber connectors have been developed, we will talk about fiber connectors in fairly general terms Most popular connectors in use today have some common elements How To Tell The Difference Between Fiber Optic Transmitters And Light Sources By : Colin Yao :: What are fiber optic transmitters Optical transmitters generate the light signals carried by a fiber optic communication system Fiber Optic Connector Cleaning Magic Show - Who Want To Join? By : Colin Yao Fiber optic connectors are totally different than any other electronic or electrical connectors They have to be perfectly clean in order to work Understanding Optical Fiber Types - Fiber Optic Tutorial Series Three By : Colin Yao Optical fibers are designed for many different application scenarios To understand the different applications, it is important to understand the properties of different fiber types What Is FTTP, FTTH, FTTB, And FTTD? Fiber Optic Tutorial Series Four By : Colin Yao FTTP stands for Fiber To The Premises which is one type of fiber optic communication delivery in which a optical fiber connection is directly run to the customers' premises The P(premises)can be business, commercial, institutional and other applications where fiber network connections are distributed to a campus, set of structures, or high density building with a centrally located network operations center
