> Whether it is used for power, communication, data, or building management systems, a component than includes or uses conductive cables or wires needs to be filtered to maximize the RF performance of a shielding system ... If it is conductive, it has the ability to carry signals and radiate similar to an antenna. Similarly, critical or protected signals are at risk of coupling to those cables or wires and leaving the secured space ... a cost-effective solution may be to use fiber-optics in the secure space that can penetrate the shielding through an inexpensive RF waveguide or series of RF waveguides.
- FateOfNations 4y agoYou think of fiber being primarily something you use for its increased bandwidth and speed, so it's wild seeing fiber run to the desk just to be plugged into a thin/zero client. Also... the concept of "bend radius" is foreign and, accordingly, is prohibited from entering. Apparently, those fiber cables aren't actually as fragile as one is led to believe in the commercial world.
