Fiber Optic Cables - Overview Application and Hands on Review

The Session will explain what fiber optic cables are, how they work and how they fit into the elevator industry. We will explain how fiber is used in place of CAT5 or CAT6 cables and a comparison of the two. We will give an explanation of how electrical signals can be transmitted via light and the conversion between the two signals. Different termination styles and connectors will be discussed giving the pros and cons of each. Finally we will give a demonstration of how simple fusion splicing is, the tools needed and allow a couple of volunteers to make terminations.
