What is optical fiber?
An optical fiber is
a thin, flexible,
transparent fiber
that acts as a
waveguide, or
"light pipe," to
transmit light
between the two
ends of the fiber.
first demonstrated by Daniel Colladon
and Jacques Babinet in Paris in the
early 1840s

E/O & O/E Conversion ??
E/O & O/E Conversion
Conversion operation
Advantage and Disadvantage
More data and faster than coaxial cable.
• Cheaper and Small space
• Long life
• Small noise
Hardly to find defects to optical fiber
cable.
• Need E/O conversion
