← ScienceWhich risk increases when impedance mismatch occurs inside underground fiber optic data lines?
A)Reduced signal propagation distance✓
B)Increased thermal resistance
C)Elevated electrical current leakage
D)Augmented data rate amplification
💡 Explanation
Reduced signal propagation distance occurs because Fresnel Reflection causes part of incident waves to be reflected, rather than fully transmitted at the junction. Therefore, fewer photons reach the receivers, rather than contributing in a constructive manner due to wave interference.
