A rollover cable is a network cable that connects a computer terminal to a network router’s console port. It is also referred to as a Cisco console cable and is normally flat and light blue so as to distinguish it from other network cable types.

An OTDR (Optical Time Domain Reflectometer) measures the time and intensity of light reflected on optical fiber in a fiber optic cable. It is primarily used to troubleshoot fiber lines to identify splices, bends, and faults, and is specifically geared to locating any light loss in a fiber line.

An Ethernet fiber media converter is a device that allows a connection to be made between an Ethernet and a fiber optic cable. This type of connection is important in situations where both cable types are used in a single household or office.

A fiber optic connector (optical fiber connector) is a small glass or plastic device that is placed at the end of a fiber optic cable in order to allow light from the cable to enter another device. Fiber optic connectors are often spring-loaded and align the core of each fiber so that they are all directly touching the receiver.

FiOS is a special type of data network that is offered to Fiber Optic Subscribers. The existing FiOS network is at a industry high where speed is concerned, as it offers 150 Megabits/second downloads with as much as 35 Megabits/second upload.

Modern technology has provided us with many things over the past few years, one of which is optical networking. By using optical networking, individuals and organizations alike are able to stay connected to the world much more efficiently and with faster data transfer rates than ever before.

 
Everyday, data transfer rates are getting faster and faster as technology gets better and demands get higher. To keep up with these faster data transfer needs, fiber optic Internet access has been introduced to the public.
