How to Connect a Computer Network with Fiber Optic Cables


How to Connect a Computer Network with Fiber Optic CablesThe telegraph and telephone were two inventions that changed the course of human history. They allowed people to communicate over long distances, making life easier and propelling the world into a newer, more modern age. Today, people still use the same kinds of copper wires that powered the first telegraphs and telephones. This technology is old, unreliable, and as the needs of people grow, will soon be obsolete. Copper wires are making way for the next new technology, namely, fiber optics. Fiber optic cables are used in a variety of ways, from delivering television signals to homes to transferring data between computers that are thousands of miles apart. They are a better alternative to copper wires when it comes to computer networks.

This guide aims to help people who are considering wiring their networks using fiber optic cables, by first explaining how they work and why they should be used. Installing and maintaining a computer network with fiber optics is not difficult, especially if users follow the step-by-step instructions detailed in the guide. Fiber optic cables and other devices needed to connect a home network can be bought at specialty electronic stores or ordered through electronics and computer parts suppliers. However, those who prefer to shop online should consider eBay. This site provides buyers a large range of choices when it comes to computer networking supplies.


How Fiber Optic Cables Work

Fiber optic cables use glass fiber strands covered with an insulated casing to send and receive communication signals using light pulses. Each cable can have up to a thousand strands of fiber, with the ability to send terabytes of data in a second. These types of cables have very high bandwidth and can be used over long distances with very little data degradation.
