Abstract
A fiber optic communication system includes a first fiber optic device configured to transmit a fiber optic signal. A second fiber optic device is in fiber optic communication with and configured to receive the fiber optic signal from the first fiber optic device. The second fiber optic device includes an adjustment circuit configured to automatically adjust the fiber optic signal if the fiber optic signal is transmitted outside of a predetermined signal strength range.
Claims22
A fiber optic communication system comprising:
- a first fiber optic device configured to transmit a fiber optic signal;
- and
- a second fiber optic device in fiber optic communication with said first fiber optic device and configured to receive the fiber optic signal from said first fiber optic device;
