What are some Fibre Optic Applications ?
The wide variety of fibre optic systems that have come into use because of the advantages of optical fibres are discussed as under : • Long Haul telecommunication systems on land and at sea to carry many simultaneous telephone calls(or other signals) over long distances.These include ocean spanning submarine cables and national backbone networks for telephone and computer data transmission . • Interoffice trunks that carry many telephone conversations simultaneously between local and regional switching facilities . • Connections between the telephone N/W and antennas for mobile telephone service. • Links among computers and high resolution video-terminals used for such purposes as computer aided design. • Transmission of signals within ships and aircraft . • Local area Networks operating at high speeds or over large areas, and backbone systems connecting slower local area Networks. • High speed interconnections between computer and peripherals devices, or between computers, or even wit
