Singlemode Fiber

Singlemode fiber is a type of optical fiber used for transmitting data as light signals over long distances. It has a very thin core, about 8 to 10 microns in diameter, which allows only one light mode or path to travel through it. This design minimizes signal loss and distortion, making it ideal for high-speed, long-distance communications like internet backbone networks. Because it can carry data over hundreds of kilometers with minimal degradation, singlemode fiber is essential for telecommunications and advanced network infrastructure.
