Fiber Optic
Cabling is a practical guide to all aspects of designing, specifying and installing systems for LANs and other data communications applications.
The second edition has been completely revised and updated by Barry Elliott, taking into account the major developments in LAN and transmission
technology over the past 10 years. The latest legislation is also dealt with, including standards relating to flammability. Cutting
edge topics such as photonic switching, wavelength division multiplexing and plastic fiber, and their implications for the future are
also explored.
An international perspective of the subject is taken, with the author looking at all the practical implementations for
fiber optic cabling, using American, European and International ISO standards.
