What are the advantages of fiber optic network compared to copper cable?

In the era of big data, whether it is a processing factory or a company office building, it is all developing towards an intelligent system that saves costs, protects the environment, and uses high-efficiency power and energy. With the improvement of the level of intelligent systems, the Internet infrastructure construction of supporting facilities must also catch up.

In the past, the standard network facilities were all copper, and the network bandwidth and service requirements of the tenants could be considered. As everyone knows, the pace of today's smart technology has long exceeded the level that can be applied to the construction of copper cable infrastructure. And if the copper cable infrastructure construction is upgraded, not only the cost is too high, but also it will be trapped in a troublesome and reinvented cycle system. Not only does copper have a huge volume, but also a refrigeration system must be installed, resulting in a deepening reduction of available indoor space and an increase in maintenance costs. Although the cost of copper Internet is relatively low in the early stage, it will eventually lead to expensive costs in terms of maintenance, replacement and tenant satisfaction.

As the world increasingly relies on high-bandwidth technologies such as virtual reality technology, augmented reality technology, and Internet of Things technology, FE Internet will eventually encounter unprecedented work pressures. To deal with this problem, it is necessary to invest in fiber optic cables at the tail end of the development trend, or network fiber optic cables with concentrated cellular communication base stations and connection points. Operators will not be able to maintain the projected increase in mobile data traffic in the short term without the availability of a large number of fiber tail ends.

As a more reasonable upgrade substitute for copper, the construction of fiber optic cable infrastructure can provide almost unlimited network bandwidth capacity and system software with expandable aspect ratio, ensuring that the house can meet the needs of renters for service items and applications for many years to come. Require. In the long run, the choice of fiber optic cable infrastructure construction can not only save costs, but also with the development trend of technical and application requirements, can ensure that the house provides the future connectivity required by the tenants.

The composition of copper and fiber optic cables is relatively

In order to grasp the high-quality quality of optical cables, people must first clear each fiber optic cable as thin as hair flocculent, and it is necessary to exceed precision in the entire manufacturing process. In order to make the optical fiber cable not lose all serial number information in the whole process of long-distance transmission, each optical fiber line must be extremely pure and clear. In order to exceed such standardized picture quality, manufacturers must strictly monitor all aspects of the monitor manufacturing process, because all slight differences in relative density are caused by light and optical scattering conditions, resulting in loss of data signals.

The production and processing technology of ZR Cable optical fiber is to reflect the vapor under the flame to produce laminated glass particles, and the particles are tightly accumulated around the target rod from top to bottom. The fiber optic line consists of two parts. The inner core and the surface layer are called part of the insulating layer. The insulating layer can reflect the laser data signal back to the core and let it travel along the opposite path of the core. In order to allow the optical fiber to transmit the optical signal more reasonably, ZR Cable makes the refractive index of the core higher than the insulating layer, and the insulating layer acts like a facade, confining the optical signal in the core.

In the whole process of metal drawing, the whole process of making the light rod into this thousands of kilometers long thin laminated glass wire can be said to be the first of the most important steps. Precise manipulation of wire drawing time and temperature is immediately critical to achieving the high definition and low data loss that customers demand. Ultimately, fiber optic cables are uniquely engineered to make them easy to bend and provide high-quality signal strength even when coiled around blind spots in houses or around fiber optic rods.

As this broadband access technology, optical fiber has great advantages. In terms of the total number of data signal transmission and information content number or demodulation rate, optical fiber has high development potential of total network bandwidth.

At the same time, the copper core wire has a large volume, and it was initially arranged to transmit WeChat voice chat statistics based on EDM. Because it is very susceptible to interference from environmental factors such as temperature and radio fluctuations, copper cables degrade rapidly over a distance of three kilometers. Although the copper cable has a large volume, its supporting force has a very low dimensional tolerance. The most worrying thing is that copper cables can transmit electrical engineering and are easy to be monitored, resulting in a general hemiplegia of the Internet. Without proper monitoring equipment, damaged or damaged copper cables will be completely short-circuited and even cause a fire accident.

Compared with copper cables, fiber optic cables can spread optical signals hundreds of kilometers away, with little loss of attenuation coefficient, and are not disturbed by the transmission of other surrounding power projects. After the optical fiber cable is installed, the maintenance cost is also much lower than that of the copper core cable. Fiber optic cables are lighter, smaller, and more durable than copper cables, and are not easily destroyed unless they are deliberately damaged. Even though fiber optic cables are made of laminated glass, every inch is stronger than steel and more durable than copper. In addition, the optical cable can also save the cost of fire safety. Since the light is not easy to catch fire, the optical cable is not easy to cause a fire accident.

The total cost of ownership of fiber optic cables is less than that of copper cables

In terms of cost, the original installation cost of fiber optic cable is higher than that of copper cable, but because of the extraordinary performance and long life cycle time of fiber optic cable, its total cost is lower than that of copper cable. At the level of operation and maintenance management, the entire network of optical fibers does not need to be deployed in traditional telecom networks like copper cable Internet, thus saving the cost of UPS power supply (UPS), on-site statistical data and land occupation that must be used for cooling systems.

This overall cost of copper cabling is often higher than the additional cost of fiber optic equipment in a centralized fiber optic line infrastructure, and it can take up a lot of indoor space in the lack of indoor space. Compared with copper cables, fiber optic cables have much less indoor space for routing. In the past, copper core wires would occupy a lot of confined space in company offices or areas. Today, ultra-fine fiber optic cables with smaller diameters require fewer total cable troughs and have higher tensile strength. Relative paths and interior spaces can be used to a greater extent.

The congested cable ducts that used to be used for copper cables can now easily accommodate this ultra-thin fiber optic cable in insufficient indoor space without installing new cable ducts. Even if new cable ducts have to be installed, they take up much less physical room space than in the past, and because the ducts used for ultra-fine fiber optic cables are more subtle, they can accommodate a large number of cables in the same array . In this way, operators can not only have a large amount of indoor space to expand in the future, but also can lease the indoor space to other operators, and can quickly get a lot of income.

Simpler upgrade to network fiber

Although the advantages of fiber optic cables are very obvious, many Internet users have been procrastinating and do not want to use them due to concerns about diversity and high costs. Comparing the two, the cost of copper cable is not lower than that of full network fiber. Although the original installation cost of fiber optic cable will be higher than that of copper cable, the performance and reliability of fiber optic cable can reduce the total cost of ownership (TCO). In addition, with the development trend of high and new technology, the cost of optical cables and related components will continue to decrease.

I don’t think it is difficult to transfer copper cables to fiber optic lines. Because of the professional fiber optic transceivers, it can maintain the seamless splicing and transfer from the old copper cable system software to the fiber optic line infrastructure construction, and it is not easy to cause the current system interruption. According to the regulations of network type, external link speed and spacing, there are various specifications and models of fiber optic transceivers to provide options. In addition, in the whole process of connection, the optical cable can also be adapted to the current hardware configuration, no need to carry out scale adjustment, and it is not easy to increase the additional cost.

A moderate overall planning of the Internet can ensure the flexible expansion of the Internet, taking into account the increased requirements for network speed and network bandwidth in the future. With the development trend of high and new technology, people are entering a world of Internet of Things, and the whole network optical fiber can ensure that the infrastructure construction can be continuously upgraded as necessary.
