FIBER OPTIC PRIMER
|
|
Fiber Optics is a technology capable of addressing two of the most difficult challenges in the communication of video, audio and data signals. These are (1) degradation of signals over long distance and (2) maintaining signal integrity in the presence of electrical noise, including lighting, EMI/RFI, voltage conductors and ground loops.
This presentation is designed to provide potential users and specifiers of communications systems of all types the basics of fiber optics and hopefully, to remove the "mystique" of this important technology which is new to most. International Fiber Systems (IFS) specializes in the design and manufacture of fiber optic data, video, and voice communication products. The company has supplied thousands of operating fiber optic links to the industrial, military, and security markets. |
