Cable Assembly (fiber optic): A cable that is terminated on both ends with connectors.
Cable Plant (fiber optic): All of the components between the transmitter and the receiver.
Chromatic Dispersion: A reduction in the bandwidth of a fiber caused by different wavelengths of light traveling at different speeds through the fiber.
Cladding: The material that surrounds the core material in an optical fiber. The cladding has a lower index of refraction than that of the core causing the light beam to reflect and travel into the core.
Cleave: A process by which the fiber is nicked to produce a controlled fracture of the glass,resulting in a clean,flat,smooth end that is nearly perpendicular to the fiber axis.
CWDM (Coarse Wavelength-division Multiplexing):Stacking 8 or fewer channels within the 1550nm region of optical fiber.
Coating: The material surrounding the cladding of an optical fiber,protecting it from damage.
Concatenation:Connecting multiple pieces of fiber.
Concentricity (optical fiber):The measurement of the offset between the center of the core and the center of the cladding.
Concentricity (fiber optic connector):The measurement of the offset between the center of the connector ferrule and the center of the connector hole in the ferrule.
Connector (fiber optic):A mechanical device that allows for connection and disconnection between two fibers (or fiber and source or fiber and detector).
Core:The portion of the fiber that transmits light.The core has a higher index of refraction than the cladding.
Coupler:An optical device that combines or splits power between optical fibers.
dB (Decibel):A unit of measurement of relative power on a logarithmic scale.
dBm:Abbreviation to decibel relative to milliwatt.
Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM):The transmission of many closely spaced wavelengths in the 1550nm region over a single fiber.
Detector (fiber optic):The opto-electric device that converts an optical signal into electrical current.
Diameter mismatch loss:Attenuation caused by mating two optical fibers having different core diameters,when the light is propagated from the large core into the small core.
Dielectric:A substance which does not conduct or transmit electrical current (in fiber optics,this usually refers to cable with no metallic materials).
Dispersion:The spreading of a light signal in an optical fiber caused by light signals traveling at different speeds through the fiber,due to either modal or chromatic effects.
Dispersion-shifted Fiber (DSF):A type of singlemode fiber designed to have zero dispersion near 1550nm.
Dual-window fiber:Fiber optimized to operate at more than one wavelength (typical multimode at 850nm and 1300nm and singlemode at 1310nm and 1550nm).
Duplex Cable:A cable with two fibers,typically designed for interface between transmission equipment and cable plant (transmit/receive).
