Frequency Accurate Answer - Optical pulses using cycles per second, 1
unit of hertz = 1 cycle per second
4hz = 4 cycles per second
Definition of transmission Accurate Answer - The movement of
information in the form of electrical or optical signals from one point to
another through a transport medium
, Refraction Accurate Answer - Bending of the light as it passes from one
medium into another
MHz Accurate Answer - - Quantifies the bandwidth of a cabling system
in a frequency range
- Information handling capabilities of the medium
Megabits Accurate Answer - - transmission rate
- Number of bits information that can be transported over the
medium(vehicles of the highway)
Anatomy of a fiber Accurate Answer - - Core
- Cladding
- Coating
Attenuation = Accurate Answer - The decrease in magnitude of
transmission signal strength between points, expressed in decibel as the ratio
of out put to input signal
Attenuation [insertion loss] = Accurate Answer - Light pulses traveling
along fiber are subjected to loss due to absorption or scattering of the light
Intrinsic = Accurate Answer - Controlled by the
manufacture/expresses in decibels per-kilometer impacts the signal to reach
the receiver with sufficient power
Extrinsic = Accurate Answer - Controlled by the installer/expresses in
decibels per-kilometer impacts the signal to reach the receiver with sufficient
power
Attenuation loss = Accurate Answer - - Expressed in decibels per
kilometers
- Impacts the ability of the signal to reach the receiver with sufficient power
dBm = Accurate Answer - Optical power referred to as 1 milliwatt of
power
CWDM = Accurate Answer - Coarse wave division multiplexing
