Fiber optic cable for radio frequency transmission

Home / Fiber optic cable for radio frequency transmission

By transmitting RF signals over optical fiber, RFoF systems enable long-distance, interference-free signal delivery across a wide range of applications—from satellite ground stations and remote antenna deployments to 3G-5G infrastructure and defense systems. Recently there has been an ever-increasing interest in Radio Frequency over Fiber (RFoF), a technology that merges the low-loss, high-bandwidth advantages of optical fiber with the versatility of RF communication (Figure 1). The technology involves modulating light signals with radio-frequency signals for transmission over fiber-optic networks.

Radio and Microwave Over Fiber

RF over fiber converts radio or microwave signals into optical form for high-bandwidth transmission over long distances through fibers.

Fiber Optics for UAVs and ROVs

Single-mode fibers have smaller diameters and force the light into a smaller beam, resulting in less attenuation, and can be used for longer distances.
