Intended for technicians who must transition from copper to fiber testing with little or no training, the easy-to-use AXS-110 All-Fiber from EXFO is a lightweight, handheld ODTR that combines both ...

I intend to pull fiber cables through walls. They are thin and convenient, and they can be miles long without significant signal losses as opposed to twisted pair metallic conductor cables. The main ...

Multimode fiber (MMF) consists of a light-guiding core embedded in a cladding with a diameter of typically only 125 µm, about the thickness of a human hair. Unlike single mode fiber, which has a core ...

Australian-US team says wavefront-shaping of input light lifts power threshold for SBS scattering by an order of magnitude. Optical scientists have found a new way to significantly increase the power ...

Adoption of 1-Gbit/s ports on desktops and increased demand for bandwidth in access networks has shifted the throughput bottleneck to content providers (data centers) and enterprise backbones. A ...

Schematic of the experimental setup: a spatial light modulator (SLM) generates tailored mode superposition. The MMF scrambles the field. A camera is used to capture the speckle patterns emerging from ...
