Announcement - Fiber Optic Installer Certification (FOI)

By Steve Rogers,
The Fiber Optic Installer Certification Course provides participants with the knowledge of installation, connectorization, splicing, testing and measurements of multimode and single-mode optical fiber. They will become experts in installing connectors on various types of fiber optic cables using various types of epoxy and will be able to perform mechanical and fusion splices. Finally, participants have the option of taking the certification test for the Optical Fiber Installer (FOI) of the International Association of Electronics Technicians Association (ETA-i, accredited by the International Certification Accreditation Council - ICAC ). 
This course will provide participants with the skills to work in cell phones, cable TV, and communications companies that install, test and maintain fiber optic networks. The course will be attended by an engineer from the telecommunications company CLARO PR for a workshop on the theory, use, and management of an Optical Time-Domain Reflectometer  (OTDR)

What Are Backlinks?

By
   Backlinks (also known as “inbound links”, “incoming links” or “one way links”) are links from one website to a page on another website. Google and other major search engines consider backlinks “votes” for a specific page. Pages with a high number of backlinks tend to have high organic search engine rankings. https://plus.google.com/url?q=https%3A%2F%2Fhoneywebsolutions.com%2F https://plus.google.com/url?q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.honeywebsolutions.com%2F https://plus.google.com/url?q=http%3A%2F%2Fhoneywebsolutions.com%2F https://www.google.com/url?q=https%3A%2F%2Fhoneywebsolutions.com%2F https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&url=http%3A%2F%2Fhoneywebsolutions.com https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&url=https%3A%2F%2Fhoneywebsolutions.com%2F https://maps.google.com/url?q=https%3A%2F%2Fhoneywebsolutions.com%2F https://maps.google.com/url?sa=t&url=http%3A%2F%2Fhoneywebsolutions.com https://images.google.de/url?q=https%3A%2F%2Fhoneywebsolutions.com%2F https://maps.google.de/url?q=ht...

Fiber optics have seen recent advances in technology

By Steve Rogers,
Fiber optics have seen recent advances in technology. "Dual-polarization quadrature phase shift keying is a modulation format that effectively sends four times as much information as traditional optical transmissions of the same speed." [14] Receivers The main component of an optical receiver is a photodetector which converts light into electricity using the photoelectric effect. The primary photodetectors for telecommunications are made from Indium gallium arsenide. The photodetector is typically a semiconductor-based photodiode. Several types of photodiodes include p-n photodiodes, p-i-n photodiodes, and avalanche photodiodes. Metal-semiconductor-metal (MSM) photodetectors are also used due to their suitability for circuit integration in regenerators and wavelength-division multiplexers. Optical-electrical converters are typically coupled with a transimpedance amplifier and a limiting amplifier to produce a digital signal in the electrical domain from the incoming opt...

If we detect N photons from a coherent state of light for a measurement,

By Steve Rogers,
Short answer: A good order of magnitude rule of thumb for the maximum possible bandwidth of an optical fibre channel is about 1 petabit per second per optical mode. So a "single" mode fibre (fibre with one bound eigenfield) actually has in theory two such channels, one for each polarisation state of the bound eigenfield. I'll just concentrate on the theoretical capacity of a single, long-haul fibre; see roadrunner66's answer for discussion of the branching in an optical network. The fundamental limits always get down to a question of signal to noise in the measurement (i.e. demodulation by the receiver circuit). The one, fundamentally anavoidable, noise source on a fibre link is quantum shot noise, so I'll concentrate on that. Therefore, what follows will apply to a short fibre: other noise sources (such as Raman, amplified spontaneous emission from in-line optical amplifiers, Rayleigh scattering, Brillouin scattering) tend to become significant roughly in pro...
