cables with a dozen fibres feed out to a splitter. There, each fibre is spliced and split out to supply 32 customers
if thats true, how do they keep connections separate? colored light? lol... if thats the case then are you 'sharing bandwidth' to some degree..?
Well, at the simplest of levels, yes. Different coloured light has a different frequency and that particular carrier-frequency can be modulated with a number of multiplexed signals . . .
And as for 'sharing the bandwidth', again, yes.
Although I have an overall 'feel' for the system, I am not able to explain it in a clear fashion.
Perhaps another of our fellow
