Definition of transmission CORRECT ANSWERS The movement of information in the
form of electrical or optical signals from one point to another through a transport
medium
Refraction CORRECT ANSWERS Bending of the light as it passes from one medium
into another
MHz CORRECT ANSWERS - Quantifies the bandwidth of a cabling system in a
frequency range
- Information handling capabilities of the medium
Megabits CORRECT ANSWERS - transmission rate
, - Number of bits information that can be transported over the medium(vehicles of the
highway)
Anatomy of a fiber CORRECT ANSWERS - Core
- Cladding
- Coating
Attenuation = CORRECT ANSWERS 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] = CORRECT ANSWERS Light pulses traveling along fiber
are subjected to loss due to absorption or scattering of the light
Intrinsic = CORRECT ANSWERS Controlled by the manufacture/expresses in decibels
per-kilometer impacts the signal to reach the receiver with sufficient power
Extrinsic = CORRECT ANSWERS Controlled by the installer/expresses in decibels per-
kilometer impacts the signal to reach the receiver with sufficient power
Attenuation loss = CORRECT ANSWERS - Expressed in decibels per kilometers
- Impacts the ability of the signal to reach the receiver with sufficient power
dBm = CORRECT ANSWERS Optical power referred to as 1 milliwatt of power
CWDM = CORRECT ANSWERS Coarse wave division multiplexing
DWDM = CORRECT ANSWERS Dense wave division multiplexing
APC CORRECT ANSWERS Angle polish connector
SCS = CORRECT ANSWERS Structured cabling system
