 About Fiber Optic Cable
At this time, there were almost no analog uses of fiber optics, and the primary applications of fiber optic cable were done by telecommunications carriers, which could realize significant reductions in cost and improvements in reliability with long-distance cables.
There are two kinds of fiber optic cable in use here on the UW - Madison Campus: multimode fiber (with a 62 micron core) and single mode fiber (with a 9 micron core).
Because interfaces for multimodemode fiber cost less than for single-mode fiber, and because the error rate on relatively short, campus-scale multimode cable is low, campuses use multimode fiber extensively.
