Fiber Optic Collimators
Fiber optic collimator is an effective passive optical component used for laser beam collimating. and Fiber optic collimators come in many forms. There are more things to consider when it comes to purchasing collimators. LENS TYPE SIZE DOES MATTER SPHERICAL OR CHROMATIC ABERRATION SINGLEMODE OR MULTIMODE PAIRING, TARGETING, OR LASER PIGTAILING 0 DEGREE OR 8 DEGREE ALTERNATIVES Introduction to Fiber…
Introduction to ODC Connector
What is ODC Connector? ODC connectors are designed for the fiber to antenna (FTTA) applications. The ODC product range incorporates precision-machined rugged brass housings with two or four optical terminations in both single mode and multimode fibers. The environmentally sealed, fixed and free connectors are supported by a range of highly crush resistant, high tensile strength “tactical” style cables.ODC fiber…
OpenFlow Switch: What Is It and How Does it Work?
SDN (Software-Defined Networking) technology is generating huge interest in the networking industry due to its ability to add higher agility and scalability for networks. At the core of the SDN technology is the OpenFlow protocol, and SDN with OpenFlow switch promises flexibility and fast configuration of communication networks. So what exactly is OpenFlow and OpenFlow switch? How does OpenFlow switch…
Layer 3 Switch VS Router
When it comes to layer 3 switch and routers, many networking beginners may be confused about the two terms, because they all use IP packets, check the destination address and pass packets according to the routing rules. In terms of these aspects, they are the same. But in fact, they are different in many ways. Layer 3 switch vs router,…
What are Optical Fiber and Fiber Optic Cable?
With the development of science and technology, the demand for large-scale communication construction is increasing. The fiber optic cable industry has developed rapidly and has formed a complete industrial chain from fiber preform, optical fiber, fiber optic cable, sensors, optoelectronics, and components. Fiber Optic Cable Definition To get clear what is fiber optic cable here starts from the fiber optic…
Testing of Fiber Optic Connection
Different fibers and different connectors fiber adapter panels to choose.such as Fiber Adapter Panels and Customized Rack-Mount Fiber Patch Panels. Currently, MTP/MPO cabling system helps ease the migration to 40 / 100G networks. The next step we will have to do is to see if the specific fiber link we are using is working properly. To finish the test, two techniques…
