Adoption of 1-Gbit/s ports on desktops and increased demand for bandwidth in access networks has shifted the throughput bottleneck to content providers (data centers) and enterprise backbones. A ...

Optical loss testing of multimode fiber can be affected by many variables, including fiber mismatch, the type and quality of the test reference cords and the launch conditions for launching light into ...

Multimode fiber (MMF) consists of a light-guiding core embedded in a cladding with a diameter of typically only 125 µm, about the thickness of a human hair. Unlike single mode fiber, which has a core ...

I need about 5-10 meters, and the contractor doing the job never worked with fiber before so I need to provide my own pre-terminated cable. What should I look for in something that goes in the wall? I ...

At the heart of each modern data center lies a complex network of fiber optic cables, the very veins and arteries that transport the lifeblood of our digital age – data. But not all fiber is created ...

Company says record-breaking result will contribute towards technology to support post-5G mobile communications. Japan's KDDI Research and Sumitomo Electric Industries have announced that their ...

Australian-US team says wavefront-shaping of input light lifts power threshold for SBS scattering by an order of magnitude. A narrowband laser beam shaped by a spatial light modulator excites many ...
