A method for the use of a local area fibre optic network for data communication at a bit rate of at least 30 Gbps, a method for adapting a fibre optic network as well as a fibre optic network
A method for the use of a local area fibre optic network for data communication at a bit rate of at least 30 Gbps, a method for adapting a fibre optic network as well as a fibre optic network
The invention relates to a method for the use of a local area fibre optic network for enabling data communication. The method comprises the steps of supplying an intensity-modulated light signal to at least one fibre of the fibre optic network by means of a transmission unit and receiving the intensity-modulated light signal by means of the receiver unit that is connected to the fibre. The intensity of the intensity-modulated light signal is modulated for the purpose of providing a bit rate of at least 30 Gbps for the data communication. The light for providing the intensity-modulated light signal has a wavelength that ranges between 1200 nm and 1400 nm. The invention further relates to a method for altering a 10 Gigabit ethernet local area fibre optic network for the purpose of adapting the fibre optic network for data communication at a bit rate in excess of 30 Gbps. The invention also relates to a fibre optic network.
