2. Fiber-optic patch cord - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiber-optic_patch_cord

   A fiber-optic patch cord is constructed from a core with a high refractive index, surrounded by a coating with a low refractive index, that is strengthened by aramid yarns and surrounded by a protective jacket. Transparency of the core permits transmission of optic signals with little loss over great distances.

3. Patch cable - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patch_cable

   A patch cable, patch cord or patch lead is an electrical or fiber-optic cable used to connect ("patch in") one electronic or optical device to another for signal routing. Devices of different types (e.g., a switch connected to a computer, or a switch to a router) are connected with patch cords.

4. Multi-mode optical fiber - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multi-mode_optical_fiber

   Optical fiber manufacturers have greatly refined their manufacturing process since that standard was issued and cables can be made that support 10 GbE up to 400 meters. Laser optimized multi-mode fiber (LOMMF) is designed for use with 850 nm VCSELs. Older FDDI grade, OM1, and OM2 fiber can be used for 10 Gigabit Ethernet through 10GBASE-LRM.

5. Optical fiber connector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_fiber_connector

   However, the assembly and polishing operations involved can be performed in the field, for example, to terminate long runs at a patch panel. Optical fiber connectors are used in telephone exchanges, for customer premises wiring, and in outside plant applications to connect equipment and fiber-optic cables, or to cross-connect cables.

6. ANSI/TIA-568 - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ANSI/TIA-568

   ANSI/TIA-568.3-D addresses components of fiber optic cable systems, and ANSI/TIA-568-C.4, addressed coaxial cabling components. [ 6 ] The intent of these standards is to provide recommended practices for the design and installation of cabling systems that will support a wide variety of existing and future services.

7. Polarization-maintaining optical fiber - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polarization-maintaining...

   Image of the cross section of a polarization-maintaining optical fiber patch cord, taken with an illuminated microscopic viewer called a fiberscope. The two small, eye-like circles are the stress rods and the tiny circle between them is the core. The larger circle surrounding them is the cladding, usually 125 microns in diameter.
