Why Wavelengths Matter in Fiber Optics - FirstLight

When we talk about the merits of fiber optics versus those of copper wire cable, the discussion often takes a technical turn and words like wavelengths, attenuation rates, and multiplexing will appear in the conversation.   In fiber-optic communications, what factors make a difference? Do wavelengths matter? And if they do matter, why?   This article will […]
