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

Hint: For light to stay within the optical fibre‚ it must be incident on the air-glass interface at angle greater than the critical angle. Use Snell’s law n1sin 1=n2 sin 2 with 2 = 90˚. Solution: 1.50sin 2=1.31 b) Determine the maximum angle for which the light

The first example is the Muller-Lyer illusion which is an optical illusion consisting of stylized arrows in which viewers tend to perceive one as longer than the other. The second example used is the Sanders Parallelogram in which a diagonal line bisecting the larger‚ left-hand parallelogram appears to be slightly

Dennis Thrane NT 1210 Unit 4 Lab 10/12/2014 Exercise 4.1.1 Why are standards so important for NICs‚ connectors‚ and media? Use your textbook and Internet research to justify your answer. The physical level determines how the 0 and 1 bits are identified. So both ends need to know the voltage range for a 1 and for a 0. If they used different values then the data would be lost‚ or the voltage at the destination may be so high that the current delivered to the destination could destroy the receiver.
