The evolving sophistication and range of video surveillance, security and communications systems, and the increased data loads required by each continues to drive the use of fiber optic networks for these applications. According to the <\/span>Guide to Fiber Optics<\/span><\/a> from the Fiber Optics Association (FOA), long distance or exterior applications increasingly call for fiber cabling as most of these systems are designed to be used over distances and speeds that preclude anything but fiber. The FOA adds that surveillance systems continue to proliferate in buildings, especially governmental, banking, or other buildings that are considered high security risks. <\/span><\/p>","category":["Access Control","Power Solutions"],"pubDate":"Wed, 30 Sep 2020 13:37:57 GMT","guid":"https:\/\/solutions.altronix.com\/blog\/go-the-distance-by-getting-more-fiber-into-your-system"},{"title":"Getting the New IEEE 802.3bt to Tango","link":"https:\/\/solutions.altronix.com\/blog\/getting-the-new-ieee-802.3bt-to-tango","description":"
