  7. Finland’s last analogue landline phones go silent after 150 years.

    Finland’s last landline call has been made as the Nordic country becomes the latest to retire copper-wire phones in favour of fibre.

    Estonia, the Netherlands, Norway and Spain have already made the jump as countries across the world roll out fibre optic cable that can handle both internet services and voice calls.

  10. Fibre-Optic Curiosity Poll: people who deploy single-mode point-to-point fibre links (any distance beyond inside a datacenter), do you use two-strand optics, or single-strand with two colours? Please #boost!

    I very much lean on Bi-Di optics since I figure there's half the amount of OSP cable to go wrong, and swapping failed optics is MUCH easier than splicing a bad strand in an inaccessible flooded underground vault that's on fire.

    Let me know in the comments what you do, and why.

    [Note top-of-rack/intra-rack and in-datacenter is NOT what I'm asking about that. That's the realm of MMF and DACs.]

    Additionally I'm wondering about NNIs and medium-haul 100G+ links, since bidi there is LESS common, but is beginning to happen. LR4 -> LR2 <- LR1???

    It may not be teleportation like you see in the movies, but it's real. Scientists at Northwestern University have successfully demonstrated, for the first time, quantum teleportation via #fibre #optic cables carrying internet traffic.

  33. New research in Optics Express📜! We linked unexpected UV loss in HCFs to gaseous chlorine. For transmission to recover, this needs to diffuse out. This has implications for current goals for long length, high yields of #fibreoptic HCF #Photonics doi.org/10.1364/OE.537473

  34. Outside our house they are pulling #FibreOptic cables (and draw cords) into existing ducts for Virgin Media. (AFAICS they didn't have draw cords before, used push rods to get to the next pit, then pulled a draw cord back.) Pulled both ways by us, plus across the road, so there are 3 lots of 4 cables in that pit! I'm intrigued by how these fibre optic cables get joined and junctioned!
