Fiber Optics Communication to Get New Direction with Advanced Chassis

Fiber optics find extensive usage in telecommunications across the globe. They allow transmissions at higher bandwidths and over longer distances than wire cables. In addition, their immunity to electromagnetic interference makes them the preferred choice for various applications in the communication sector.

Overview of ‘Fiber Optics’

A fiber-optic cable is a flexible and transparent fiber made up of exceptionally thin strands of glass or other translucent solids. Despite having a diameter comparable to a human hair strand, a single cable can easily carry millions of calls or internet data. Besides telecommunication, fiber optics also find application in the medical and healthcare sectors.

Amphenol’s Next-generation Fiber Distribution Chassis

With rapid advancements in optical technology, the influx of innovative devices and systems associated with fiber optics can be envisaged. In August 2017, Amphenol Telect unveiled a high-density fiber distribution chassis, C2LINX, incorporated with cable management features. The chassis can mobilize 5G internet and render fiber cable management simple and efficient. In addition, its manufacturers call it a next-generation panel that allows maintaining correct bend radius integrity and attaining the maximum termination density, thereby ensuring improved network capacity. The chassis is designed to scale and suit with various network environments, including cable TV, telecommunications, and enterprise.

Market Insights

How Distributed Fiber Optic Sensor Prevent Well Accidents?

Distributed fiber optic sensors find a range of applications in oil & gas, civil engineering, infrastructure development, and power & utility. These sensors can observe real-time and continuous downhole properties to improve operational and economic performances of oil & gas verticals. They can monitor power cables and can detect hotspots to prevent unwanted accidents.

What is Distributed Sensing?

Distributed sensing allows continuous and real-time measurement along the length of the fiber optic cable. Unlike traditional sensors that rely on discrete sensors at pre-determined points, distributed sensors utilize optical fibers. They do not have additional transducers in the optical path. This makes them economical and easy to use even in the unusual and harsh environments. Distributed optical fibers are made of silica glass and are as thin as a human hair.

”DAS” Cables for Challenging Environments

FiberWatch Distribute Acoustic Sensing (DAS) cables from Pinnacle, Halliburton Service can provide crucial information in the most challenging environments. The fiber-optics can be used in unconventional resources and harsh thermal environments involving heavy oil plays. These cables are based on Rayleigh scattering principle and they can capture acoustic strain signals from afar.

The sensors in these cables can work like a series of implicit microphones that collect data and make it available for advanced processes. The processes include time and depth domain stacking, frequency filtering, and others. The product can also provide visualization software, real-time analysis, and sturdy field ready unit.

Market Insights

According to a new study by Grand View Research, Inc.; the worldwide distributed fiber optic sensor/sensing (DFOS) market is expected to reach USD 2.39 billion by 2025. Wide applications across an array of technological installations can drive the market during the forecast period (2014 to 2025). High demand from business sectors such as civil & energy, automotive, medical, aerospace, and manufacturing divisions can further support the expansion.

 Market Players

Luna Innovations Incorporated, QinetiQ Group plc, Schlumberger Limited, and Yokogawa Electric Corporation are some of the noteworthy market players. Most companies often participate in mergers & acquisitions to acquire new patents and technologies and competitive edge over the market.

Fiber Optic Connectors to Increase Bandwidth across Carrier Networks

High bandwidth in telecommunication networks is the most common requirement among users. Fiber optic connectors play a pivotal role in almost all applications where optical fibers are used as a medium for transmitting signals.


Fiber Optic Connector


Fibre Optics at a Glance

Information is transmitted in the form of light from one end to the other through fiber optic cables, known as Total Internal Reflection (TIR).

Fiber optic cables comprise a core made of ultra-pure glass with an outer layer of glass called cladding. The cladding is fabricated to decrease its refractive index through small bits of germanium or boron.

LC connectors are developed by Lucent Technologies, a firm now recognized as Alcatel-Lucent. These connectors are suitable for use in high-density applications and are available in both simplex and duplex versions. SC connectors cables are designed with a push-pull design and are therefore used for quick repairing or patching of cables. They are available in simplex and duplex version. FC connectors comprise durable threaded coupling and are extensively used in telecommunication applications. ST connectors are reliable and durable for field installation and available in both simplex and duplex versions.

Connectors: Serving a Purpose in Fibre Optics 

Fiber optic connectors have several applications, such as in telecommunication, oil and gas, military and aerospace, BFSI, healthcare, and railway sectors.

They are used in the development of telecommunication and IT infrastructure to achieve high bandwidth and speed. Optical connector technology is used in military applications for ground, sea, air, and space solicitations in avionics testing equipment and ground support systems in fighter planes. They find application in healthcare for biomedical sensing, flexible bundling, light conduction and illumination, and laser delivery systems. Fiber optic connectors are also used for deployment purposes, especially in railway line inspection.

In June 2017, OFS Fitel, LLC. launched a novel InvisiLight Facade Solution for garden-style dwelling units as well as low-rise buildings.

Depending upon the type of application, the solution provides three different units, namely InviLight Drop Cable (for residential settings), InvisiLight MDU Solution (for building hallways), and ILU Solution (for indoor living units).

This novel solution is provided with 12 or 24 fiber count rated cable, which can be accessible at indoor as well as outdoor levels. These two cables vary in diameter and can be connecterized mechanically or with the help of fusion splicing.

Fiber Optic Connector Market Insights

According to Grand View Research, Inc., the global fiber optic connector market is set to achieve USD 5.9 billion by 2025. Preference for high bandwidth communication and opportunities in the medical sector may propel the market. The telecommunication sector is likely to register high growth in terms of revenue, with the ST and FC connector segments also observing substantial growth during the forecast period (2014 to 2025).
