HDMI is the best choice for PS3 because it supports 1080p video and HD audio. You won't need any other cable to run your PS3 to the TV. Besides, your TV most likely doesn't have optical (Fiber Optic as you called it) input... only an optical output (sends sound from the tv to a surround sound, but doesn't receive sound in from other devices).

TOSLINK – Basic Things You Need To Know

The significant feature of these fiber optic cables is that they could convert signals of audio into light impulses as opposite to electric signals. TOSLINK cables typically send out their signals with the LED lights that are colored red. The standard TOSLINK was first established by Toshiba to offer connections in the CS players. It then caught on and turn out to be the most popular connection audio signal’s format. It's mainly utilized to connect DVD players, CD player, receivers of satellite dish and any other equipment that require reliable way of converting audio signals. A significant difference between TOSLINK and any other audio cable formats is that, because TOSLINK utilizes cables made with fiber optic, it’s not at risk to electromagnetic commotion and line sound.

Cables of TOSLINK are frequently restricted to being 5meter long. This is the maximum length for TOSLINK cable that has no signal booster. It is found to be approximately 10 meter. Depending on its purpose, TOSLINK cables can utilize 1milimeter thick plastic fiber optic, which are cheap or for high-quality device that can as well utilize cables that are high-quality multi-strand fiber optic.

Once you shine a light at an end of the coil of TOSLINK, you’ll be able to look at it at the other end. The reason for this is because fiber optic cables are made-up of conducting light material and therefore transmit the light from the end to another end.

Audio cables come in all sizes, types, and configurations. Furthermore, the most famous cable utilized for audio is the Toslink cable, or it is frequently referred to as the optical cable. It is a standardized connection system for connecting stuffs such as DAT recorders and CD players. The standard for video and digital audio is pulse code modulation (PCM). Toshiba developed the Toslink in the year 1983 to utilize with CD players connecting it to the receiver of the pulse code modulation audio signal. The Toslink cable turned out to be regular for other producers, and it was named as EIAJ optical.

There is another type of cable that is known as the mini-toslink jacks. There are as well adapters on the marketplace to connect this mini-toslink to the regular Toslink cable. Most usual users of mini-toslink jacks are portable mini disc players and Apple computers.

Crystal Clear Fiber Optics

When it comes to a fiber optic network or a simple fiber optic cable connector, cleaning and maintenance is of immense importance. It not just ensures cost savings but also better and optimum usage of the network. Hence, it makes good networking sense to keep fiber optic set-up clean and contamination-free.

Cleaning of connector fiber optics helps in network quality. If one speaks to a variety of customers who have operated high-speed networks for years, one would get to know how important cleaning cartridge filter is or a ferrule cleaner to a network.

AEFOS is the company committed to development and manufacture of AFC 3000 ferrule cleaners for fiber optic industry having its usage across variety of industries such as aerospace, scientific research and even education. The product is an automatic cleaning device used to clean fiber optic cable connectors.

It comes with cool features. The design is unique and well thought-of, hence it can serve as a female and male ferrule cleaner. And since the device is based on dry cleaning process, if one runs out of cleaning fiber, one can see red signal around the spool via a window. The red warning suggests that the time has come for cleaning cartridge filter and changing it.

AEFOS’ AFC-3000 is patented in USA and Canada and comes with an easy to understand user manual. If you are a fiber optic technician one will take a few minutes to understand the easy-to-use design of this simple and immensely helpful product. One can get started by purchasing an AFC-3000 along with CFC-600 cartridge and a cleaning tip. That should set you up towards a contamination free fiber optic cable connectors and network.

So one can make optimum use of a high-speed network by cleaning filters and cartridges along with using probably the best ferrule cleaner around – AEFOS’ AFC-3000.

Where can I get a Fiber Optic Christmas Tree?

My mom is trying to find a fiber optic christmas tree about 7-8ft tall, we tried going to many places but we can only find 3ft trees or so. Is there any stores who might carry them or even online websites. I'm desperate I dont want to spend another whole weekend looking for a christmas tree.

Are you talking about the artifical trees that have the fiber optic lights in them like here: http://www.artificial-christmas-tree.com

Or are you talking about those white trees that are all fiber optics?

Everything You Need To Know About Aerial Fiber Optic Cable Installation

Understanding The Basic Terms

1. Dead end pole: Dead end pole is a utility pole on which self-supporting figure 8 aerial cable or a steel messenger is tensioned and terminated into a dead-end fixture.

2. Messenger span: Messenger span refers to the length of continuous steel messenger tensioned between two dead-end poles.

3. Intermediate poles: Intermediate poles are all the poles between two dead-end poles.

Planning

1. Careful planning and preparation are necessary before any aerial cable installations. During the cable route survey, representatives from all necessary parties including utilities, street depart, etc should be present. Before even detailed planning begins, approval should be get from all involved parties. Sufficient clearance for new cable along the right of way should be confirmed during the route survey.

2. Existing poles should be used whenever possible in order to save cost.

3. Where on a pole to place the aerial fiber optic cable? Fiber optic cables weigh less than equivalent copper cables and also sag less, so fiber optic cables should occupy the uppermost available communications space on a pole.

4. Sufficient clearances must be maintained between fiber optic cables and electrical power cables on joint-use poles. You need to refer to current National Electrical Safety Code for the proper clearances.

5. Existing dead-end pole must be evaluated to see whether they can withstand the stresses during aerial cable installation. You have to evaluate whether temporary guying is needed in order to relieve the temporary unbalanced loading during cable installation.

6. Splice locations. Splice locations are usually selected during the cable route survey. They are chosen to allow for the longest possible continuous cable spans and a minimum number of splices. They should be easily accessible to a splicing vehicle.

7. Aerial installation should never be done in wet conditions. And make sure all personnel are properly trained for pole line work.

8. Fiber optic cables (including all dielectric cables) should be properly grounded when installed in the vicinity of high-voltage power cables.

Installation:

Fiber optic cable aerial installation can be done in two ways

1. Lashing a fiber optic cable to a steel messenger

A steel messenger is first installed between the poles. Then a cable reel trailer and truck are used to pull the cable along the messenger. A cable guide and cable lasher are used to wrap around both the messenger and the fiber cable to secure the fiber cable to the messenger. Following the cable lasher is an aerial bucket truck which makes necessary adjustments.

At each pole, the fiber optic cable forms an expansion loop to allow for expansion of the messenger. The expansion loop's sizes have both a length and a depth, its length should be larger than twice its depth. The fiber cable should also maintain its minimum bending radius at all times.

2. Direct installation of self-supporting figure 8 aerial fiber optic cables

Self-supporting (Figure-8) optical fiber cables greatly simplifies the task of placing fiber optic cables onto a aerial plant. The self-supporting figure-8 cable incorporates both a steel messenger and the fiber cable into a single jacket of Figure-8 cross section.

The combination of strand and optical fiber into a single cable allows rapid one-step installation and results in a more durable aerial plant.
