What are the traditional fiber optic connections?

May 18, 2023

Traditional fiber optic connections include the following:

1. Single-mode fiber connection: This connection method uses single-mode fiber for transmission and is suitable for long-distance transmission and high-speed data transmission. It is typically used to connect two long-distance LANs, or to connect data centers to remote servers.
2. Multimode fiber connection: This connection uses multimode fiber for transmission, and is suitable for shorter distance transmission and low speed data transmission. It is usually used to connect LANs on different floors or in different rooms within the same building.
3. Direct connection: This connection uses optical fiber to connect two devices directly, such as connecting two switches or connecting a switch and a server.
4. Cross-connect: This type of connection uses cross-connecting cables to connect two devices together, such as connecting two switches or connecting a switch to a server.

These traditional fiber connections can be achieved by using different types of fibers, fiber modules and fiber connectors. As technology continues to evolve, new fiber connections will emerge to meet the needs of different scenarios.
