What is the core of an optical receiver

Home / What is the core of an optical receiver

Modern fiber-optic communication systems generally include optical transmitters that convert electrical signals into optical signals, to carry the signal, optical amplifiers, and optical receivers to convert the signal back into an electrical signal. The core job is always the same: catch light, turn it into current, clean it up, and deliver clean digital data to whatever system needs it. It's the endpoint of any fiber optic link, sitting at the far end of the cable and translating pulses of infrared light into the ones.
