Types of optical modulation in fiber optic communication
According to the particular optical-field parameter being modulated, optical modulation can be categorized into different modulation schemes: phase modulation, frequency modulation, polarization modulation, amplitude modulation, spatial modulation, and diffraction modulation. Optical fiber telecommunication relies on modulation – the process of encoding information onto light waves – to transmit digital data efficiently. Light itself is a single waveform and cannot directly carry complex information. Therefore, certain characteristics of light (such as brightness and vibration state) need to be adjusted. Optical modulation allows one to control an optical wave or to encode information on a carrier optical wave. Wave propagation is guided by optical fibres.

Should I use fiber optic cable or optical fiber for surveillance installation
Fiber optic cables are the optimal choice for security systems due to their high-speed data transmission, immunity to interference 1, and resistance to cyber threats. The most common options are Cat5, Cat5e, Cat6, Cat6a, and fiber optic cables. Each has distinct characteristics, making them suitable for different. There are three ways to cable IP surveillance cameras those being UTP (unshielded twisted pair) premises cabling (Cat5e/6), fiber optics, and existing (or new) coax cables. Each type of cabling has its positives and potential limitations. Most installers are familiar with and are using Cat5E/6. Networking, digital and Internet Protocol (IP) have ushered in unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cable and high-speed Ethernet, employing IP to carry the digitized video images.
