What is Fiber Optic?

Fiber optics is very popular Technology for Local Area Networks and Wide Area Networks. Fiber optic uses flexible fibers with glass core to send data using light pulses. The glass core is surrounded by another layer of cladding that helps lights bounce between the glass, which help minimize losses, also known as attenuation. Data can travel much further using fiber optical cable than copper, making it much preferred by service provider and businesses. It can also handle greater bandwidth. Fiber is much more reliable, in the sense that it is not susceptible to interference to electrical surges or certain light fixture.

Telephone companies are steadily replacing traditional telephone lines with fiber optic cables. In the future, almost all communications will employ fiber optics. If you are in the market for a company that can help you with your fiber optical cabling needs, give us a call.

Common Fiber Optic Parts List in Austin

  • Fiber Optic Enclosure – Helps organize fiber strands and houses the fiber connectors.  It can be rack mount or wall mount.  It can be indoor or outdoor.  This product help minimize damage to the fiber cable and or termination.  If you do break a termination or connectors, most of the time, it will be on the fiber patch cord side, which are very inexpensive and easy to replace.
  • Fiber Optic Conduit – Use to protect the fiber cable.  It’s typically orange – Most tech see orange conduit, they will typically know or assumed it’s a fiber cable inside.  This product also give the fiber cable an extra layer of protection from the element, whether it is water, run rays, and or animals or rodents.
  • Fiber Optic Connectors – Typically SC, ST, or LC.
  • Fiber Optic Patch Cable – Use to patch equipment to fiber connectors.  It can be same connectors on both ends or it can be different ends.  A good example for using patch cables on different end would be, you have SC connectors on your fiber cables, but your equipment have LC connectors.  In this case, you would purchase a patch cable with LC and SC connectors.  Fiber optic patch cable also comes in different length which makes it flexible.
  • Fiber Optic Module – AKA – Fiber optic inserts or jack – Use to terminate fiber optic cable to a desk and or wall jack.  Make it easy to plug and or unplug a jack.
  • Fiber Optic Splicer – Use to repair fiber optic cable that have been broken or cut.  It can be mechanical or fusion splice.  This product comes very handy, especially when time is sensitive.   It’s much faster and less expensive to repair a fiber then it is to run new fiber cables in most cases. Fiber Optic Fusion splicer in simple term, can splice or weld two fibers cables or connectors with same specs together. Example, splicing an OS1 cables with OS1 pigtails, or splicing an om3 fiber cable with another om3 fiber cable. You wouldn’t want to splice os1 fiber optic cable with an om2 fiber cable.
  • Fiber Optic Splitter – A passive network splitter that will divide one incoming fiber signal to multiple signal.  It is also known as single point to multi-point splitter.  Most commonly use in home (Fiber to the Home – FTTH) application.  It help keeps cost down dramatically.  Incoming signal typically comes from the CO or Central Office.  It then comes to the Fiber optic-splitter.  From here the splitter goes to a termination point, which can be patch to a home.  One very cool thing about this devices is that it uses no power (AC or DC that is).  Imagine we have an ethernet network switch that uses no power?  
  • Optical Network Terminal – Typically install outside the house.  ONT typically converts fiber optic light to ethernet or copper which are more common on for routers and PC.  Some ONT even deliver analog dial tone.  In a way, it is a media converter.
  • Fiber Optic Pigtails– Fiber optic pigtail factory made cable with connectors on one end and the other end un-terminated. Why use factory pigtails? It has lower loss and typically have better connections than those made in the field. We typically use a fusion splicer to weld fiber pigtails to the fiber optic cables. Fiber pigtails can comes in as many different options: Single-Mode, Multi-Mode, LC connectors, SC Connectors, ST Connectors, 2 strands, 4 strands, 6 strands, 12 strands, 24 strands, etc. As you can imagine now, the possibilities are endless. Many factory can customize pig tails to your orders as well.
