Wavelengths of light: the distance an electromagnetic wave through a complete
cycle.
EMI electromagnetic interference it is the electrical noise generated in copper
conductors when electromagnetic fields induce currents.
Optical fiber strands: thin glass or plastic filaments used for transmissions of
information via light signals.
Index of refraction: the ratio of the speed of light in a vacuum to speed of light in
a given transmission medium.
Cable Jacket: the insolation or protection built on cables to house and protect
wires and cables with in them.
Cladding size: usual the size or thickness for the material that is put around the
core of an optical fiber during the manufacturing process.
Multitier cables: this cable bears many fibers independently sheathed and caped
of carrying unrelated signals
Differential mode delay: this is a variation in the propagation delay caused by
difference in group velocity among modes of an optic fiber.
Chromatic dispersion: this is the spreading of a particular light pals because of
the varying refraction rates of the different colored wavelengths
