Optical fiber
What is optical fiber?An optical fiber is
a thin, flexible, transparent fiber
that acts as a waveguide, or "light pipe," to
transmit light be-tween 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 Disadvan-tage
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
