Home / Working principle of plastic fiber optic patch cords
The fundamental working principle of an optical fiber patch cord lies in the phenomenon of total internal reflection. Optical Fiber Patch Cords are designed to connect various optical devices and network components, facilitating high-speed data transfer across significant distances without degradation. It consists of a core with a high refractive index, enveloped by a coating featuring a lower refractive index. These short fiber optic cords connect transceivers, switches, patch panels, and servers.
