A thin strand of glass designed for light transmission. A single hair-thin optical fiber is capable of transmitting trillions of bits per second. In addition to their huge transmission capacity ...

Regardless of the port types used, fiber optic couplers can be designed for single window, dual wavelength or wideband transmissions. The electromagnetic spectrum encompasses all frequencies and ...

An all-optical fiber-optic switching device that maintains the signal as light from input to output. Traditional switches that connect optical fiber lines are electro-optic. They convert photons ...

A device called an all-optical switch could instead use light to control other light signals without the need for electrical conversion, saving both time and energy in fiber-optic communication. A ...
