Bill, I am a network engineer and studied and employed Asynchronous Transfer Mode for a city in Oregon. My most common challenge was refraction changes due to over-eager "diggers" and cable-installers on the poles. Sometimes, the glass fiber cable would develop and "fracture" or break. This was like a monkey wrench in the works and so I truly appreciate your discussion of refraction. I love the engineer's perspective and your clear and concise teaching method!!!

Then, there are many more types of modulations. Surely you have heard of frequency modulation for example. You give each frequency a code and you sample a certain period of time to figure the frequency out. And there are many more advanced techniques to mix different techniques together to squeeze out every possible bit of information capacity potential. See link for a picture how a mixed signal would look like. www.elprocus.com/pulse-amplitude-modulation/

you mentioned 50k phone calls can be sent simultaneously. How come the signals don't irritate each other while being sent through the cable?

Working for the phone company, we could use a flashlight to light up the other end of a fiber miles away so someone on the other end could confirm which fiber we were working with. I found fiber optic cable to be absolutely fascinating.

How do they boost the signal within the cable?

@engineerguyvideo

9 жыл бұрын

In this early system (if I recall correctly) they converted the signal to an electricial signal and then used a conventional amplifer. In later system they used an amazing erbium based amplifer -- an EDFA -- that is an optical amplifer. It uses stimulated emission like a laser. The wikipedia article on "optical amplifer" explains the essential concept.

Aren't the best cables used today using a gradual change in the index of reflection along the radial direction of the cable such that internal reflection losses are minimized?
