How It All Works

When we say “fiber” we are talking about fiber-optic Internet, which may be a sort of fiber-optic communications. By sending a beam of sunshine through fiber-optic glass cables, we are ready to transfer information through what’s a very fascinating process.

Optical Fibers

Fiber cables are made from many smaller optical fibers. These fibers are extremely thin, to be specific they are less than a tenth as thick as a human hair. Though they are thin, they have a lot going on. Each optical fiber has two parts:

The Core: Usually made from glass, the core is that the innermost a part of the fiber, where the sunshine passes through.

The Cladding: Usually made of a thicker layer of plastic or glass, the cladding is wrapped around the core.

Broadband and Fiber Networks Solutions

Billions of people worldwide are accessing the Internet. In the U.S. alone, 88.5% of citizens used the Internet. Every year these numbers grow, and the Internet becomes more and more important to our everyday lives, on an individual and societal level.

Entertainment and Connectivity: We have all become used to having the world at our fingertips. We may browse recipes, check the latest stock information, video chat, stream a movie, download music, or play interactive online games. With fiber-optic Internet, ISPs can provide enough bandwidth to do all of those things at once, without having to sacrifice service quality.

Smart Homes and Security: Smart Home technology is one of the Internet of Things (IoT) fastest-growing markets. It runs seamlessly from your smart device. You can also monitor and protect your home remotely using Smart Home Security.

Telecommuting: Fast access to the Internet makes it possible for professionals to telecommute. Working remotely allows people to live wherever they want, without having to sacrifice career opportunities. Further, symmetrical fiber speeds make uploading content to/for work just as easy as it would be sitting in the office.

Distance Learning: Educational and enrichment opportunities for every age group are quickly becoming the norm at colleges, adult education programs, and even as virtual elementary schools emerge. Symmetrical speeds, once again, are a key part of this process. They allow students to quickly upload their assignments from home.
