Simplex Fiber Optic Cables

Simplex fiber optic cable consists of only one fiber link, it is most often used for applications that only require one-way data transfer. One end is the transmitter, while the other is the receiver and that is not reversible.

Use: Simplex fiber is most often used for applications that only require one-way data transfer. For example, an interstate trucking scale that sends the weight of the truck to a monitoring station or an oil line monitor that sends data about oil flow to a central location.
