FHD4 Series MTP/MPO Cassettes Module Solution
What Is Modular MTP/MPO Cassettes? MTP Cassette, as an easy-to-install and cost-effective plug-and-play cable management solution in today’s fiber optic cable patching system, is used to interconnect MTP backbones with LC or SC patching. Providing secure transition between MTP and LC or SC discrete connectors, they allow for rapid deployment of data center infrastructure as well as improved troubleshooting and reconfiguration during MACs (moves,... -
What is Fiber to the Home (FTTH)?
What is FTTH Meaning? Fiber to the home (FTTH) is a fiber optic communication delivery form where the fiber extends from a central office to the boundary of a home living space or business office. Once it reaches the home or business office, the signal is conveyed throughout the space using coaxial cable, wireless, optical fibers or power line communication. FTTH includes various flavors of... -
Fiber Optic Cable Types: Single Mode vs Multimode Fiber Cable
Single Mode and multimode Fiber Cable, both these types of optical fibers have their own attributes and are used as per the specific requirements. The differences between single mode and multimode fiber optic cable mainly lie in fiber core diameter, wavelength & light source, bandwidth, color sheath, distance and cost. An optical fiber consists of a core surrounded by cladding where the core is... -
How to Identify the Fiber Optic Cable Color Code?
Fiber Optic Cable Outer Jacket Color Code Fiber cable jacket is made of various types of materials. Colored outer jackets or print may be used on outside plant and premises fiber cables, e.g., fiber distribution cables, fiber optic patch cords, etc. In EIA/TIA-598, the fiber color code defines the jacket color codes for different fiber types. It’s important to consider the jacket type when selecting... -
What Is The Difference: SFP vs SFP+
Today there are different optical transceivers available on the market. They come in various form factors offering speeds from 100Mbps to 100Gbps and are fully compliant to the MSA and IEEE 802.3 standards. Some of the more popular form factors include SFP, SFP+, XFP, GBIC, XENPAK, QSFP and QSFP28. As we know, a SFP module just looks the same as the SFP+ module. And most... -
What does U/UTP vs F/UTP vs S/UTP vs SF/UTP vs U/FTP vs F/FTP vs S/FTP and SF/FTP mean
Understanding the difference between U/UTP vs F/UTP vs S/UTP vs SF/UTP vs U/FTP vs F/FTP vs S/FTP AND SF/FTP Cables? When it comes to copper cabling, choosing the level of shielding you want the cable to have can prove a minefield of confusing acronyms and perplexing industry technology. We’ve put together this handy guide to help you understand the meaning of some of the... -
Optical Transport Network (OTN) for High Speed Service
What Is OTN Network？ Optical Transport Network (OTN) is a protocol for sending network messaging over optical fiber networks. Experts define OTN as a collection of optical network elements (ONE) that communicate using wavelength division multiplexing (WDM). Since multiple data frames have been wrapped together into a single entity in OTN, it is also known as the “digital wrapper”. OTN is a next-generation, industry-standard protocol... -
The Role of Transponder and Muxponder in Fiber Optic Network
Enterprise data centers and service providers are facing increasing demands for low latencies, data security, higher speed and longer transmission distance in networks. Both transponders and muxponders are key components for enhancing their networks by meeting those demands. In Optical Transport Network (OTN), both of them belong to the optical transform unit (OTU)/ wavelength conversion unit. What is Optical Transponder? Optical transponders are often adopted to... -
What is Fiber Optic Adapter (Coupler) ?
Fiber optic adapter (also called coupler) is a small device that used to terminate or link the fiber optic cables or fiber optic connectors between two fiber optic lines. They designed to connect two optical cables together and come in versions to connect single fibers together (simplex), two fibers together (duplex), or sometimes four fibers together (quad). The optical fiber adapter can be inserted into different... -
FBG Fiber Optic Reflector is the Ideal Optical End of FTTX Network Link Monitoring
What is a Fiber Optic Reflector? Fiber optic reflector, also known as fiber Bragg grating filter, is usually installed in the front end of optical network ONU. Combined with OTDR equipment, optical link point-to-point (PTP) or point-to-multi-point (PTMP) network monitoring can be realized, and network anomalies can be reflected quickly and accurately. The fiber optic reflector provided by LightOptics has the advantages of low insertion loss,high reflectivity,convenient installation,...
