Fiber optic cables are also known as optical fiber cables. They are specialized cables used to transmit data using light. Unlike conventional copper cables, which transmit electrical signals, these cables consist of silica glass or plastic fibers. They are characterized by extremely high transmission rates.
The basic structure of a fiber optic cable includes a core surrounded by cladding. The cladding has a slightly lower refractive index than the core, enabling efficient guidance of the light signal. In addition, these cables are equipped with a protective coating and an outer protective sheath made of special plastics to ensure stability and durability. This structure makes it a robust and high-performance solution for data transmission.
