The wider the bandwidth, the more information con be transmitted Broad band: Denotes date transmission copabilities exceeding that of standard direct modulation transmission found in high grade voice communications. Broad band cllows several simultaneous channel transmissions due to the propagation of 6 carrier signal. Bend radius (minimum): Rodiusto which a fiberor cable can be bent before breakage or excessive signal otfenuation occurs. Cladding: The entire optical material of an optical fiber enveloping the core. Its index of refraction is somewhat lower than that of the core Cooting: A material directly over the clodding which protects the fiber from the environment Connector: Component for the detachable connection of two optical fibers Core: The central region of an optical fiber through which light is transmitted Dispersion: Causes band width limitations ond broadens the input pulse along the fiber length. Components of dispersion are: A) model dispersion in mulifiber coused by varying optical path length, 8) material dispersion caused by diferentil delay an various wave length of light signal in fiber, C) dispersion found in both signal an d multi-mode fiber which is caused by length entering and traveling in both core ond clodding materials. Decibel [a] Measure of the otfenuation of the power transported Fresnelyeflection.

Fusion Splice: A permanent joint accomplished by melting two optical fibers together Groded-index fibor= Glass fiber type whose core exhibits © ‘refraction index profile with on index of refraction decreasing in he from of « parabola from the inside to the outside. This allows better dispersion ond transmission characteristics to be achieved. Hybrid cable: Coble with different tronsmission lines such os opticol fibers, copper and conductors, RF conductors Jelly: From "petroleum jelly.One of the tixotropic fluids used os water blocking agent within multi-fiber tubes (also known as gel). Loose fube: An optical fiber tube where the fiber and its protective coating ore protecied by a plastic tube.

Typical dimensions are 50/125 microns end 62.5/125 microns. ‘Modem (optical): Receive ond transmitiing device which converts electrical analog or digital signal into a. corresponding optical signal Microbending: Curvature of a fiber which couses loss of light and consequently an increase in attenuation of the fiber ‘Multiplexer (Mux): A device often capable of bi- directional data transmission which puls two or more signals into a signal channel. Numerical eperture: Light gathering capabilities of fiber. Dependent on the diference in index of refraction between the core and the cladding ‘Optical Waveguide: Another name for on optical fiber Patch cord: A shor fiber optic cable with connectors on, both ends.
