Fibre Optic Cable | Optical Fibre
Eland Cables supplies a range of fibre optic cables for both indoor and outdoor installations. These are interchangeably referred to as fibre optic and optical fibre.
Fibre optic cables consist of glass threads, each capable of transmitting digital data modulated into light waves. They effectively send information coded in a beam of light through a glass or plastic pipe. A key advantage of fibre optic cables over metal conductor cables is their superior performance in terms of bandwidth and therefore data carrying performance. Optical fibre cables are generally lighter and less susceptible to electromagnetic interference, however optical fibre tends to be more fragile than cables with a metal conductor.
The applications for optical fibre range from carrying telephone calls (up to several million calls per cable) to high speed data transfer for vast computer networks.
