You might not need an extensive sensor network or a host of volunteers to detect earthquakes in the future -- in fact, the lines supplying your internet access might do the trick. Researchers have ...

Combined with the TG-300 tone generator, the LFD-300 FiberFinder from EXFO Electro-Optical Engineering enables technicians to pinpoint a specific live fiber without having to disconnect it or without ...

Intel has developed silicon-based photoelectric detectors that could cut the cost of fiber-optic communications to a fraction of their current value. Photodetectors — used in a range of applications, ...

The cable that is providing millions of people with internet access, and even the cable you have running to your router - heck, the same fiber optic cable that is going into my router here as I type ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. – Using patented technology developed at Purdue University, a Midwestern, high-tech venture is manufacturing a new kind of high-performance fiber optic detector that will allow ...

Newport’s 918D-IS-1 Universal Fiber Optic Detector uses a symmetrical integrating sphere design to ensure accurate calibration, regardless of the fiber type measured. The integrating sphere uses a ...

Fiber optic isn’t just the future of the internet — it could also be the future of seismography. New research emerging from Stanford University suggests that we may soon be able to leverage those ...

When it comes to earthquakes, the earlier the warning, the better. While current seismometers can pick up minor tremors with precision, they're relatively short-ranged and expensive, but now, a ...

Intel has developed silicon-based photoelectric detectors that it says can cut the cost of fiber optic communications to a fraction of their current value. Photodetectors--used in a range of ...
