Questions & Answers on Fiber Optics

Jan 3, 2019

RF over fiber (RFoF) or Radio over fibre (RoF) is a way of transmitting radio waves over a fiber optic cable by converting the RF signal into light by modulating the intensity of a light source (Laser or LED) with the RF signal. At the other end, the RF signal is recovered using an Optical-Electrical modulator (O/E).RF over Fiber transmission is an analog process that provides high bandwidth, low-...read more

The growing use of embedded and industrial computing brings with it increased demand for high-quality, long-distance, low-power and compact communication capabilities. Fiber optic technologies are answering this call thanks to the use of field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs), and improvements to the transceivers, connectors and receivers. We have taken each area in turn, to help engineers pick ap...read more
