In Reply to: Harmonic Tech Cyberlight --shocking measurements posted by Jon L on March 9, 2005 at 09:46:10:
Fiber optics technology is purely digital (light on/off). But apparently Harmonic Tech Cyberlight is trying to use it in analog application by varying the intensity of light (They have laser tx/rx modules inside the terminations that convert electrical signals to a continuously-variable intensity laser beam).Thus the distortion, and "Roller Coasters" like frequency response :)
