Fiber Optic Repeaters

Fiber optic repeaters are devices used in long-distance optical fiber communication networks to boost the signal quality. Over great distances, the light signal weakens and becomes distorted, making it difficult to transmit data accurately. Repeaters receive the weakened signal, amplify or regenerate it to its original strength, and then send it onward. This process ensures the data travels reliably over hundreds or thousands of kilometers without degradation, maintaining high-speed and clear communication. Essentially, fiber optic repeaters act like signal refreshers, allowing optical fibers to cover vast distances efficiently.
