Optical Fiber Jumper

Optical fiber jumper (also known as optical fiber patch cords) means the connector plug on both ends of optical cable to realize optical active connection; a plug at one end is called tail fiber. The center is a light-propagating glass core. In the multi-mode optical fiber, the diameter of the core is 50 μ m~65 μ m, which is roughly equivalent to the thickness of a human hair. However, the diameter of the single-mode optical fiber core is 8 μ m~10 μ m. The core is surrounded by a glass envelope with a lower refractive index than the core to keep the fiber inside the core. Then the outside is a thin layer Plastic coat, used to protect the cover.
