Fiber Optic Experience

The History of is closed to the history of . If Fiber Optic has 55 years since 1970, the first internet prototype was created in 1969 and www (world wide web) exists since 1989. The basic infrastructure for actual internet is Fiber Optic Infrastructure. Our is proud to have RNT Romania as partners, who is also part of Asociația Interlan, who donated to our museum a rack illustrating the history of active equipment providing internet services over fiber optic network. Fiber Optic means and also using or reaching to us daily in the service as or or .

has a section dedicated to ART. In the Old Greece the Art and Skills were the same. It's nice to see how one of the artists present at the launching of Fiber Optic Museum in May 2023, Ileana Stefanescu with "Thought-Back Machine" artwork is
going to continue her artworks inspired by and in her Exhibition called "React" she is using fiber optic from pigtails and cables in relation with the attitude towards the environment as the society and specialists need to find out a solution for Fiber Optic recycle and sustainability.

https://www.interlan.ro/ One of our partners is Interlan Internet Exchange, the largest Romanian interconnection platform. They are gathering most of the small ISPs and CSPs from Romania with small internet networks from various cities and localities from Romania. Most of them are using and they donated to our a complete rack which shows that Fiber Optic need some active equipment to send various type of Information and Data for many types of digital services.
Fiber Optic is a high-quality support for communication services nowadays which are critical in our daily . Thanks to Eric Baleanu, Angela Stanescu, Andrei Macri, Gabriel Sirbu & all team for all your support and all your services you are doing using Fiber Optic for your Clients.

Cercle CREDO is one of the partners for our Fiber Optic Museum which is coming from France. Their involvement in FTTH deployments is a model for many other countries how to build a support for the people working with Fiber Optic. They created and published many Practical Guides for several phases of fiber optic cable installation and some of them are in the library of our Fiber Optic Museum. Thanks to our French partners and to Emeric Dont.

SCTE, Society for Broadband Professionals is one important partner of . This is the oldest (founded in 1945) and the largest organization in the word for telecom engineers (more than 30 000 members). We would like to thanks to Anthony Basham, President, and to Melissa Cogavin, Managing Editor, for this partnership as they gave us the first telecom magazine, called Cable Television Engineering from October 1973 (we have no. 2 edition) and a collection with the evolution of this famous magazine till today's Broadband Journal. As professionals, we need good literature from our profession and the Learned Society is growing by reading and learning from daily experiences of other professionals.

Did you saw a Multi Core Fiber (MCF)? For those who work with fiber optic they are used with Standard Single Mode or Multimode Fiber Optic which has one core (9-11 microns for SM or 50 microns for MM) in a cladding of 125 microns. This MCF has 4 cores in the same space of 125 cladding. This great proforma is produced by Heraeus https://www.heraeus-covantics.com/ who donated us last year and we will display it in this Fiber Optic Museum this year physically in Bucharest where it will be possible to be seen closer and better (with lights/laser show :-)). We would like to thank here also to Heraeus and Martin Boettcher for this great support for our museum. For those who want to know more, Heraeus is one of the top 10 family businesses in Germany with several companies, but related to fiber optic industry they are producing from long time different types of proforma for fiber optics including for specialty fibers and MultiCoreFiber or Hollow-Core-Fiber. They were organizing an workshop in the last FTTH Conference in Berlin with the theme: Future of fiber optics.

Infrastructura subterana pentru retelele de fibra optica este intr-o faza de tranzitie avansata de la conducte sau tevi acum 30-50 ani, cu diametre de 90 sau 110 mm, la , care au diametrele cuprinse intre 2 si 20 mm. TeraPlast este membru al Asociatia de Fibra Optica din Romania si este producator roman din 2021 al acestor microtuburi care sunt testate in laboratorul din poza la fabrica lor din Bistrita. Muzeul de Fibra Optica va creste la anul cu o sectiune dedicata infrastructurilor retelelor de fibra optica 😉.

Compania RNT este membra in INTERLAN si a contribuit la organizarea Muzeului de Fibra Optica cu un rack in care prezinta Istoria internetului in Romania, care evident ca a avut la baza de la inceputuri fibra optica, dar si cabluri coaxiale si cabluri de cupru. Internetul de mare viteza este legat mult de fibra optica pentru vitezele mari de transmisie pe care le permite si de echipamentele de transmisie aferente. Reteaua de fibra optica are nevoie de a fi vazuta si inteleasa si cu partea activa, de echipamente si aplicatii, servicii care se transmit prin ea. Lumina, purtatoare de servicii si aplicatii.

In orice muzeu exista Inovatie si obiecte frumoase de prezentare. Muzeul de Fibra Optica se bucura sa aiba o "masa inteligenta" furnizata cu discount de partenerul nostru din Sibiu. Muzeul de Fibra Optica are in plan sa aduca si alte forme moderne de prezentare (fara a le numi acum pentru a pastra surpriza decoperirii acestora la vizita muzeului :-) ). In aceasta masa inteligenta se pot vedea diferite filmulete cm se produce sau instaleaza fibra optica si cablurile cu fibra optica. Va asteptam cu orice idei/sugestii pentru continutul care ar putea fi pus acolo pentru toate categoriile de vizitatori.

Este o asociatie si o platforma azi a tuturor operatorilor mici de internet, in trecut numiti ISP-isti (Internet Service Provider) din Romania, azi sunt in tranzitie spre CSP-isti (Communication Service Provider), care asigura o parte buna din comunicatiile prin internet din RO prin fibra optica. Tocmai pentru ca activitatea lor foloseste ca infrastructura fibra optica din ce in ce mai mult, dar si pentru ca ei au raspuns favorabil imediat cm au auzit ideea construirii acestui Muzeu de Fibra Optica si au venit cu ideea prezentarii Partii Active a retelelor de Fibra Optica. Adica cm este iluminata fibra optica si cu ce tipuri de echipamente. O parte din aceste echipamente sunt in rackul prezent in muzeu de anul trecut si pot fi vazute de toti vizitatorii. Echipamentele fac conversia din optic (Lumina) in electric pentru a transmite semnalele si informatiile care ne ajuta in zilele noastre la comunicatiile de toate zilele pe suportul retelelor de fibra optica.

Partenerul zilei R&M Romania
In Sectia de Stiinta / SCIENCE a Muzeului de Fibra Optica avem un panou dedicat Conectivitatii de la partenerul nostru, Reichle de Massari Romania, care este una din firmele renumite pe zona de la nivel global. La origine firma este din Elvetia, care are reprezentanta si in Romania si este una din cei 4 co-fondatori ai AFOR - Asociatiei de Fibra Optica din Romania din 2012, prin Cristina Deac si ulterior prin Cezar Lovin.
Conectivitatea pentru fibra optica este atat interfata si trecerea de la partea pasiva a retelei de fibra optica la partea activa a retelei de fibra optica, prin care se injecteaza si receptioneaza lumina si semnalul in fibra optica, precum si legaturile facute pe traseul fibrei optice care ajunge la sute si mii de km si are nevoie de conditii speciale pentru a asigura transmiterea luminii pe distante mai mici sau mai mari in cele mai buna conditii.
Evolutia Conectivitatii pe fibra optica este interesanta fiind foarte multe tipuri de conectori, avand un vis frumos in lumea de fibra optica sa ajungem intr-o zi la un singur tip de conector, dara care momentan nu pare realizabil. Sa vedem ce ne rezerva viitorul... R&M pregateste pentru expozitia urmatoare Fiber Optic Experience 2 o zona de interactivitate, in care vizitatorii Muzeului de Fibra Optica participa si vad cu ochii lor rezultatele activitatii lor pe parcursul vizitei, prin lumina care se poate transmite pe fibra optica.

In sectiunea de Stiinta primul partener al Muzeului de Fibra Optica, membru important in Asociatia de Fibra Optica din Romania, este Prysmian. Ei sunt in top 10 producatori de fibra optica si cabluri cu fibra optica din lume si au la Slatina cea mai mare fabrica de cabluri cu fibra optica din Europa. Au adus in muzeu o proforma in dimensiune naturala pentru a intelege cm se produce fibra optica din sticla. Este si un panou dragutz cu mai multe role colorate de fibra optica, culoarea reprezentand un numar in limbajul fibrelor optice. Am vazut vizitatori care atingeau fibra optica din aceste role tocmai pentru a simti fibra optica si nu doar de a o vedea :-).
