  2. INTRODUCTION Fibre optic communications has revolutionised the telecommunications industry. It has also made its presence widely felt within the data network community as well. Using fibre optic cable, optical communications have enabled telecommunications link to be made over much greater distances and with much lower levels of loss in transmission medium and possibly most important of all, fibre optical communications has enabled much higher data rates to be accommodated. As a result of these advantages, fibre optic communications systems are widely employed for applications ranging from major telecommunications backbone infrastructure to Ethernet systems, broadband distribution and general distribution networking.

  3. Evolution of optical fibre • 1880 - Alexander Graham Bell • 1930 - patents on tubing • 1950 - patent for two-layer glass wave guide • 1960 - Laser first used as light source • 1965 - High loss of light discovered • 1970s - Refining of manufacturing process • 1980s - optical fibre technology becomes backbone of • long distance telephone networks in numerical aperture.

  4. What is optical fibre ? • An optical fibre is a flexible, transparent fibre made of high quality • glass (silica) or plastic slightly thicker than a human hair • It either functions as a waveguide or light pipe that transmits data between • two ends of the fibre or fibre cable • Optical fibre are widely used in fibre-optic communications which permits • data over long distances and at higher bandwidths (data rates) than other • forms of communication • Fibres are used instead of metal wires because signals travel along them with • less loss and are also safe to electromagnetic interference • The field of applied science and engineering concerned with the design and • application of optical fibres is known as fibre optics

  5. Structure of optical fibre • Optical fibre is comprised of a light carrying core surrounded by cladding which • traps the light in the core by the principle of total internal reflection. • The core and cladding are usually fused silica glass which is covered by a plastic • coating called the buffer plastic coating which protects the glass fibre from • physical damage , moisture and mechanical shocks. It also gives strength and • safety

  13. Advantages of optical communication • Capacity of carrying information is very large and have a wider bandwidth • They have a very low transmission loss • Optical fibres are very light in weight ,flexible, smaller in size, this makes them • more suitable in spaceships and aircraft • Glass fibres can withstand high temperature. Temperature approaching 8000C • leaves glass fibre unaffected • Communication by means of an optical fibre provides a high degree of security • and privacy • Also, practically there is no crosstalk, any interference or coupling with other • communication channel. any electrical noise do not interfere with propagation • of light signals because of dielectric nature of optical fibre
