Fiber Optics

Fiber optic cable is used many places and not only does it support LAN backbones and industrial networks , but also telephones and cellphones, CATV, security cameras, etc. Optical fiber is often the most cost-effective means of transporting high-bandwidth information. Trinity Networx, LLC offers a wide variety of products and accessories to provide your business with the tools to succeed.

  • Bandwidth: Fiber links offer more than 1,000 times more bandwidth than copper.
  • Distance and performance: Unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cabling standards (EIA/TIA 568) call for 90 meters (295 feet) of permanently installed copper cable and 10 meters (33 feet) of patch cables. Fiber can often support links up to 300 meters, error-free, even at high data rates.
  • Security: An increasing need for security drives more demand for fiber. Government applications have long required optical fiber because it is more difficult to tap than copper. In addition, electromagnetic interference (EMI) over copper may be a problem for industrial networks utilizing motors, relays, welders, fluorescent lighting, etc.
  • Longevity: Superior bandwidth does not require frequent upgrades to fiber networks. Also, fiber runs have little risk of being damaged by harsh elements, such as water, chemicals, heat and corrosion.
