Understanding Cables in the AV Industry
Cable Types: Fiber optic cable
Fiber optic cable is the best method of hardwired signal transmission over
long distances. This is due to the extremely low attenuation characteristics
(signal loss). Fiber optic cable accomplishes this by transmitting light
(photons) versus electricity (electrons)... Read
