Excessive Poverty As American citizens‚ we should be the first to attest to the fact that we are very privileged in many aspects of life. For the most part‚ regardless of social class‚ each of us see at least one or two meals on a daily basis; even some of the less fortunate people in our country can attest to the fact they have some type of shelter to rely on at night. Unfortunately‚ however‚ often times we don’t look at our lives from this perspective. We’ve become accustomed to the “American

Fiber Optics Fiber Optic Cable Facts "A relatively new technology with vast potential importance‚ fiber optics is the channeled transmission of light through hair-thin glass fibers." [ Less expensive than copper cables [ Raw material is silica sand [ Less expensive to maintain If damaged‚ restoration time is faster (although more users are affected) [ Backbone to the Information Superhighway Information (data and voice) is transmitted through the fiber digitally by the use of high

Fiber Optics History of Fiber Optics History Of Fiber Optics In 1870‚ John Tyndall‚ using a jet of water that flowed from one container to another and a beam of light‚ demonstrated that light used internal reflection to follow a specific path. • Alexander Graham Bell patented an optical telephone system‚ which he called the Photophone • He dreamed of sending signals through the air‚ but the atmosphere didn’t transmit light as reliably as wires carried electricity. • During the 1920s‚ John

The cladding moves the light along the core by using total internal reflection. The core and the cladding are usually made of high-quality silica glass‚ but they can both be made of plastic as well. Connecting two optical fibers is done by fusion splicing or mechanical
