Optical Networking FOR DUMmIES


If you’ve ever wondered how light can ferry vast amounts of information across huge distances, wonder no more. This book is just for you. Here, you discover how science and technology enable modern networks to convey humongous hunks of information (more than the entire contents of the Library of Congress, every second) hither, thither, and yon.
Though optical networking may sound esoteric, it really isn’t. Optical networking relies on precision engineering and the ability to do lots of things very, very fast. That’s where the speed of light works in its favor. In this book, you find out how optical networks exploit basic physical properties of light energy to make networking reliable at high speeds and tremendous volumes. Welcome to Optical Networking For Dummies!
