Special Optical Fiber Cable Types & Applications
Special optical fiber cable refer to the optical cables used in specific environments. Such as commonly used hybrid fiber optic cable, anti rat bite fiber optic cable, micro air blown fiber optic cable, underwater fiber optic cable and flame-retardant direct buried cables. Hybrid Fiber Optic Cable Hybrid fiber optic cable is the structure which optical […]
What is Mining Fiber Cable and It’s Standard?
Fiber retardant fiber or flame retardant fiber optic cable is usually for coal mine, so it is also referred to as mining fiber cable or coal fiber optic cable. What is Mining Fiber Cable? Mining optical cable is a special application of fiber optic cable in the field of optical communication. It is a communication […]
3 Fiber Core Types – Loose Tube Optical Fibre, Tight Buffer Fiber and Ribbon Fiber
Optical communications, that is, data and signal transmission using optical fiber core as the medium. Optical fiber can be used not only to transmit analog signals and digital signals, but also to meet the needs of video transmission in this era of internet. The data transmission rate of a single optical fiber can reach several […]
Twisted Pair Cable 8 Wires And Plug Differences
What is the role of each core of the twisted pair? What kind of crystal plugs are used for Category 5, Category 6, and Category 7 cables? Let’s find out. What Is Twisted Pair Cable The first thing to know is the overall function of the 8 copper wires. The 8 copper wires are used […]
What Is Ribbon Fiber Optic Cable? Advantages & Applications?
What Is Ribbon Fiber Optic Cable Ribbon fiber optic cable refers to a fiber optic cable in which the optical fiber in the cable adopts an optical fiber ribbon structure, while the optical fiber in the cable that is not an ribbon fiber optic cable has a discrete optical fiber structure. The fiber optic ribbon is […]
How Does Fiber Media Converter Work? How to Use It?
What is Fiber Media Converter The fiber media converter can realize the conversion of optical signals and electrical signals. Converting the signals through optical fibers, and finally connecting with some equipment, we can have unimpeded transmission and communication. When we transmit signals over long distances, optical fiber are usually used to do the job. That […]
6 Fiber Cable Outer Sheath Materials and How To Choose?
The main function of the fiber cable outer sheath is to protect the optical fibers in the optical cable from external damage. Requirements So the material of the fiber optic cable outer sheath must be able to withstand the sun and rain, and not crack due to ultraviolet radiation. At the same time, it must […]
3 Fiber Optic Cable Fire Rating – OFNP, OFNR And OFN
The fire rating of fiber optic cable can be specificed into 3 types, which are OFNP, OFNR and OFN. Before we can talk about the flame retardant grade, we can first understand what is LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen). What Is LSZH As early as the mid-1980s, halogen-containing (especially brominated) flame retardant polymer systems were […]
Optical Fiber Manufacturing Process – The 2 Main Steps
Optical fiber manufacturing is the process of making optical fibre from silicon tetrachloride and other raw materials. This process of optical fiber manufacturing determines the mechanical strength, transmission characteristics and service life of the optical fiber, which is very important to ensure the quality of the optical fiber and fiber optic cable. Optical Fiber Manufacturing It […]
