Fiber Optic Cabling
CSM’s fiber optic assemblies connect people and business to
a telecommunications infrastructure—at higher speeds and
greater bandwidth than ever thought possible. Current trends
and future breakthroughs include:
• highest levels of signal transmission security—allowing
the smallest loss in optical signal to trigger an alarm
anywhere in a system.
• paving the way for next-generation phones and
communication devices—combining crystal clear
audio and video signals in real time via phone calls
spanning the globe.
• increasing the speed in which LAN, SAN and PAN networks
operate at home and in the office—with
decreasing hardware costs, fiber to the desktop (FTTD) will
change the way our networks communicate.
• illumination applications including medical and industrial
endoscopes—aiding doctors in minimally invasive
exploratory or surgical procedures (endoscopies) previously
inaccessible.
CSM advantage

Considerations
With hundreds of fibers in a single cable, fiber optics can
easily accommodate high bandwidth requirements and span
great distances with extremely low data loss. Fiber cables
are not susceptible to
the crosstalk that can occur between copper transmission
lines. Optical fiber’s resistance to electromagnetic
interference permits use near high voltage equipment.
Because of its relatively low weight and ease of splicing,
optical fiber is less costly and time-consuming to install
than copper.
