Tubular laser beams can create what amount to fiber-optic cables made of thin air, researchers report in a study to appear in Physical Review X. Laser-heated air can efficiently transmit light signals ...

Many electricians have broadened their work model in recent years to include coaxial and Ethernet wiring for communications and data networks. This is usually seen as a good move, given the fact that ...

Fundamental ball-screw technology hasn’t changed much since 1929 when Rudolph G. Boehm patented a device he called an “anti-friction” nut. The ability to smoothly and precisely move heavy loads is a ...

The Code requirements for optical fiber vary with the type of cable used Fiber optic cable has many advantages over competing technologies, including increased information capacity (by orders of ...

New Australian research offers a tantalizing promise–fiber optics that could make Internet speeds 100 times faster. The research relies on fiber optics that imitate the basic structure of life: DNA.

Get gigabit today and 10 gigabit down the road with bend-tolerant fiber, UPC-polished ends, and media converters for a clean ...
