What is the optical Fiber Communication

?

Fiber-optic communication is a method of transmitting information from one

place to another by sending pulses of light through an optical fiber. The light

forms an electromagnetic carrier wave that is modulated to carry

information. First developed in the 1970s, fiber-optic communication systems

have revolutionized the telecommunications industry and have played a major

role in the advent of the Information Age.

the international gateway ?

SEA-ME-WE-4 Submarine Cable

The submarine cable system with which Bangladesh is currently connected

through BSCCL is a high capacity optical fiber Submarine Cable System linking

16 companies of 14 countries: Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Bangladesh,

India, Sri Lanka, Pakistan, United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Tunisia,

Italy, Algeria and France. It is called the South East Asia-Middle East-Western

Europe- 4 (SEA-ME-WE-4) cable network and is under an International

Consortium. It has a total length of 20,000 km with 1.28 Terabit/Sec capacity.

Currently, Bangladesh has a capacity of 44.60 Gbps in the Submarine Cable

through the Upgrade # 2 and has applied for more capacity in Upgrade # 3 to

reach around 80 Gbps. As of today (Nov. 19, 2009), the current utilization is

about 11 Gbps.
