Introduction to Fiber Converter Single Mode
A fiber converter single mode is a device used to convert electrical signals into optical signals and vice versa over a single mode fiber optic cable. It ensures seamless data transmission over long distances with minimal signal loss.
Working Principle of Fiber Converter Single Mode
Fiber converters operate by taking an electrical signal from a network cable, converting it into light pulses via a laser or LED, transmitting it through a single mode fiber optic cable, and then converting it back into an electrical signal at the receiving end.
The single mode fiber has a smaller core diameter (typically 8 to 10 micrometers) compared to multimode fiber, which allows for a single light path, reducing dispersion and enabling higher bandwidth transmission over longer distances.
Specifications and Parameters
- Core Diameter: 8-10 micrometers
- Wavelength: 1310 nm or 1550 nm
- Transmission Distance: Up to 80 km or more, depending on the specific product and conditions
- Data Rate: Up to 10 Gbps for certain models
- Power Consumption: Typically around 2-5 watts
- Temperature Range: -20°C to 70°C for industrial models
Applications of Fiber Converter Single Mode
Single mode fiber converters are essential in various applications where long-distance and high-bandwidth communication are required. Common applications include:
- Internet Service Provider (ISP) backbones
- Data centers
- Telecommunications networks
- Video transmission systems
