What is optical networking?

Optical networking utilizes light signals transmitted through optical fibers to transport data. It is commonly used for high-bandwidth communication over long distances, forming the backbone of the internet and enabling services like video streaming, cloud computing, and large data transfers. It offers advantages such as high capacity, low latency, and immunity to electromagnetic interference.

What other technologies are related to optical networking?

optical networking Competitor Technologies

UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair) copper cabling is an alternative transmission medium to fiber optics, especially for shorter distances. It therefore can be a competitor for optical networking.
