Fiber cable overview
You can use an optical fiber to connect a fiber Ethernet port or 10 Gbps Ethernet port. In addition, an
optical fiber can connect these types of interface modules: HIM-4GBP/HIM-8GBP, HIM-CL1P/HIM-CL2P,
HIM-CLS1P/HIM-CLS2P, HIM-MSP2P/HIM-MSP4P, HIM-PS1P, HIM-AL1P/HIM-AL2P, HIM-RS2P, or
HIM- 1 EXP.
Optical fibers feature low loss and long transmission distance.
Optical fibers can be classified into single mode fibers and multi-mode fibers. A single mode fiber
carries only a single ray of light; a multi-mode fiber carries multiple modes of lights.
